A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 38 ft/s2. what is the dist

ance covered before the car comes to a stop?

Convert 38 ft/s^2 to mi/h^2. Then we se the conversion factor > 1 mile = 5280 feet and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.

So now we show it > 38  \frac{ft}{s^2}  x  \frac{1mi}{5280ft} x  \frac{(3600s)^2}{(1h)^2} = 93272.27  \frac{mi}{h^2}

Then we have to use the formula of constant acceleration to determine the distance traveled by the car before it ended up stopping.

Which the formula for constant acceleration would be > v_2^2=v_1^2 + 2as

The initial velocity is 50mi/h (v_1=50)

When it stops the final velocity is (v_2=0)

Since the given is deceleration it means the number we had gotten earlier would be a negative so a = -93272.27

Then we substitute the values in....

0^2 = 50^2 + 2(-93272.27)s

0 = 2500 - 186544.54s

Isolate S next.

185644.54s= 2500

s =  2500/(185644.54)

s=0.0134


So we can say the car stopped at 0.0134 miles before it came to a stop but to express the distance traveled in feet we need to use the conversion factor of 1 mile = 5280 feet in otherwards > 0.0134 mi *  \frac{5280ft}{1mi}  = 70.8 ft
So this means that the car traveled in feet 70.8 ft before it came to a stop.

Q 28.7: A strip 1.2 mm wide is moving at a speed of 25 cm/s through a uniform magnetic field of 5.6 T. What is the maximum Hall
Zinaida [17]

Answer:the  maximum Hall voltage across the strip= 0.00168 V.

Explanation:

The Hall Voltage is calculated using

Vh= B x v x  w

Where

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field, 5.6 T

v is the speed/  velocity of the strip, = 25 cm/s  to m/s becomes 25/100=0.25m/s

and w is the width of the strip=  1.2 mm to meters becomes 1.2 mm /1000= 0.0012m

 Solving

Vh= 5.6T x 0.25m/s x 0.0012m

=0.00168T.m²/s

=0.00168Wb/s

=0.00168V

Therefore, the  maximum Hall voltage across the strip=0.00168V

An a.c. supply is connected to a wire stretched between the poles of a magnet. Which way does the wire move?​
snow_lady [41]
The wire vibrates back and forth between the poles of the magnet.
The frequency of the vibration is the frequency of the AC supply.

An electric travel blanket uses a car's 12V supply. The current is 3A.
snow_lady [41]

For electrical devices . . .

           Power dissipated = (voltage) x (current) =

                                             (12 V)  x  (3.0 A) = 36 watts .

1 watt means 1 joule per second

           (36 joule/sec) x (60 sec/min) x (10 min)  =  21,600 joules
