A car is 200 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 40.0 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she m
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4.17 m/s²

Explanation:

We are told the reaction time is 0.2 s. Now, during this reaction time the car is going to travel an additional distance of : x = u × t = 40 × 0.2 = 8 m

where u is the initial velocity of the car which is 40.0 m/s.

We are told that he had 200 m to stop before applying brakes. Thus, after applying brakes, he now has a distance to cover of; s = 200 - 8 = 192 m

Since vehicle is coming to rest acceleration would be negative, thus using Newton's equation of motion, we have;

v ² = u² - 2as

v = 0 m/s since it's coming to rest

u = 40 m/s

s = 192 m

Thus;

0² = 40² - 2(a)(192)

0² = 1600 - 384a

a = 1600/384

a = 4.17 m/s²

How many butter, which has a usable energy content of 6.0 Cal/g (= 6000 cal/g), would be equivalent to the change in gravitation
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

175.96 g

Explanation:

Potential energy required for the man to climb 7.07 km = m g h.

= 64 x 9.8 x 7070

= 4.434 x 10⁶ J

= 4.434 X 10⁶ / 4.2 cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ / 6000 g of butter

= 175.96 g of butter.

What is the wavelength associated with 0.113kg ball traveling with velocity of 43 m/s?
lesya [120]

Answer:

2.73×10¯³⁴ m.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 0.113 Kg

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Wavelength (λ) =?

Next, we shall determine the energy of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.113 Kg

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Energy (E) =?

E = ½m²

E = ½ × 0.113 × 43²

E = 0.0565 × 1849

E = 104.4685 J

Next, we shall determine the frequency. This can be obtained as follow:

Energy (E) = 104.4685 J

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Frequency (f) =?

E = hf

104.4685 = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × f

Divide both side by 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 104.4685 / 6.63×10¯³⁴

f = 15.76×10³⁴ Hz

Finally, we shall determine the wavelength of the ball. This can be obtained as follow:

Velocity (v) = 43 m/s

Frequency (f) = 15.76×10³⁴ Hz

Wavelength (λ) =?

v = λf

43 = λ × 15.76×10³⁴

Divide both side by 15.76×10³⁴

λ = 43 / 15.76×10³⁴

λ = 2.73×10¯³⁴ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the ball is 2.73×10¯³⁴ m.
