A driver in a car speeding to the right at 24m/s suddenly hits the brakes and goes into a skid, finally coming to rest. The coef

ficient of static and kinetic friction between the tires and the road are s = .8 and k = 0.7. How far does the car skid?

Answer:

42 m

Explanation:

v_{o} = initial velocity of the car = 24 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity of the car = 0 m/s

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.7

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

a = acceleration due to kinetic frictional force  = - μg = - (0.7)(9.8) = - 6.86 m/s²

d = distance through which the car skids

Using the kinematics equation

v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2 a d

Inserting the values

0^{2} = 24^{2} + 2 (- 6.86) d

d = 42 m

Complete the paragraph to compare Uranus and Neptune.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Uranus and Neptun are outer planets od the Solar system, since they are located after the asteroid belt. All of these outer planets are much larger then the inner ones so they are called the "ice giants". The other reason for this name is that they are very far from the Sun, so their temperature is low. Another feature they have in common is their atmosphere which is composed of gases, including methane, which is responsible for their blue color, since methane absorbs red light. However Neptune is known for very fast winds and storms in its atmosphere which is responsible for its high activity and changes.

So, the blanks should be filled with:

Sun

methane

Neptune

outer planets

Answer:

How can smoking affect the respiratory system?

Smoking and Respiratory Disease

Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer.

Given w= 4+,- 0.02 A=2.0+,-0.2 and 3.0+,-0.6 what is the value of w\ A y square
In-s [12.5K]

Explanation:

w = (4.52 ± 0.02) cm, x = ( 2.0 ± 0.2) cm, y = (3.0 ± 0.6) cm. Find z = x + y - w and its uncertainty.

z = x + y - w = 2.0 + 3.0 - 4.5 = 0.5 cm

Dz = Dx + Dy + Dw = 0.2 + 0.6 + 0.02 = 0.82 rounding to 0.8 cm

So z = (0.5 ± 0.8) cm

Solution with standard deviations, Eq. 1b, Dz = 0.633 cm

z = (0.5 ± 0.6) cm

Notice that we round the uncertainty to one significant figure and round the answer to match.
