A car travelling 95 km/h is 210 behind a truck travelling 75 km/h. how long will it take the care to reach the truck

1 answer:

5 0

<span>37.8 seconds First, determine the speed difference between the car and truck. 95 km/h - 75 km/h = 20 km/h Convert that speed into m/s to make a more convenient unit of measure. 20 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 5.556 m/s Now it's simply a matter of dividing the distance between the two vehicles and their relative speed. 210 m / 5.556 m/s = 37.8 s So it will take 37.8 seconds for the car to catch the truck that's 210 meters in front of the car.</span>

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elect

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Speed of the alpha particle is $v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given charge on alpha particle $q=3.2\times 10^{-19}C$

Mass of the alpha particle $m=6.68\times 10^{-27}kg$

Potential difference $V=-3.45\times 10^{-3}volt$

We have to find the speed of the alpha particle

From energy conservation we know that

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=qV$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 6.68\times 10^{-27}\times v^2=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3.45\times 10^{-3}$

$v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$

A mass m is attached to a string connected to a force sensor on a rotating platform. The platform’s angular velocity, ω, can be

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm

Explanation:

Given

The platform is rotating with angular speed , $\omega =8.5\, \frac{rad}{sec}$

Mass m is moving on platform in a circle with radius , $r=0.20\, m$

Force sensor reading to which spring is attached , $F=4.8\, N$

Now for the mass m to move in circle the required centripetal force is given by $F=m\omega ^{2}r$

=> $4.8=m\times 8.5 ^{2}\times 0.20$

$=>m=0.332\, kg$

Thus the mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm

Which term describes the number of crests that pass a point in a given amount of time

joja [24]

The term is frequency.

The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.

Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.

Which property of water causes the cracks in the pavement in cold climates ?

amid [387]

“As temperatures drop, the pavement contracts, building up tensile stresses that lead to cracking,” states MnDOT's Research Services Section. “Fractures occur every 20 to 30 feet across the lane, allowing water to penetrate the structure, which further weakens the pavement layer and the base beneath
