A student is running to catch the campus shuttle bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. The student is runnign at a constant spe

ed of 6.0 m/s; she cant run any faster. When trhe student is still 60 m from the bus, it starts to pull away, moving with a constant acceleration of 0.170m/s2. (a) For how much time and what distance does the student have to run at 5.0 m/s before she overtakes the bus? (b) When she reaches the bus, how fast is the bus traveling?

Answer:

Part a)

t = 16.8 s

d = 100.8 m

Part b)

v_f = 2.86 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

Constant speed by which the student will run is given as

v = 5 m/s

now after some time if student is going to overtake the position of bus

so here the final positions will be same

so we have

x_{bus} = x_{student}

0 + \frac{1}{2}at^2 + d = v_{student} t

\frac{1}{2}(0.170)t^2 + 60 = 5 t

0.085 t^2 - 5t + 60 = 0

so it is

t = 16.8 s

So student will run the total distance

d = vt

d = (6)(16.8)

d = 100.8 m

Part b)

Speed of bus when student reach the bus is given as

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 0 + (0.170)(16.8)

v_f = 2.86 m/s

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:A. It is modified by the cell, so there is still more glucose on the outside of the cell than inside it

Explanation: The cells are the primary unit of a living organism,it is the place where cellular respiration takes place, which is the use of oxygen to break down food substances such as Glucose to release energy in the form of Adenosine trisphosphate (ATP) and give out Carbondioxide as a by-product of cellular respiration.

Most of the Glucose enter the cells to get modified through cellular respiration so their is still more Glucose outside than the Glucose inside.

A lightbulb has an efficiency of 13.1%.How much light energy (not heat energy) is generated by the bulb every second if the bulb
maw [93]

Answer:

1.048 W

Explanation: Given that a lightbulb has an efficiency of 13.1%.How much light energy (not heat energy) is generated by the bulb every second if the bulb has a power pf 8W?

The input power = 8W

The output power = ?

The efficiency = 13.1%

Using the formula below:

Efficiency = (power output / power input) × 100

13.1 = (Power output / 8 ) × 100

0.131 = power output / 8

Cross multiply to make the power output the subject of formula

Power output = 0.131 × 8

Power output = 1.048 W

Therefore, the light energy (not heat energy) generated by the bulb every second is 1.048 W

Suppose a light ray is changing direction when it changes from one transparent medium to another. Which of the following changes
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The correct option is C i..e.
change the second medium to get a greater difference than before in the speed of light in the two mediums


Explanation: whenever light goes from one medium to another, kts frequency remains unchanged. It totally depends on tbe refractive index of the medium, which can change the speed of light.
If the refractive index of the entering medium is less than that of the medium from which light came,then the angle will be wider.
