A certain sprinter has a top speed of 10.5 m/s. If the sprinter starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate, he is able

to reach his top speed in a distance of 12.0 m. He is then able to maintain his top speed for the remainder of a 100 m race. (a) What is his time for the 100 m race

Answer:

Total time = 10.667 seconds

Explanation:

For the first 12m

V² = u² + 2as

10.5² = 0² + 2a(12)

110.25 = 24a

a = 4.59375 m/s²

V = u + at

10.5 = 0 + 4.59375t

t = 10.5/4.59375

t = 2.286 seconds

For the remaining race

100-12 = 88m

He travels at a constant speed for 88m

S = ut + 1/2(at²)

But a = 0

S = ut

88= 10.5t

t = 88/10.5

t = 8.38.seconds

Total time = 2.286 + 8.381

Total time = 10.667 seconds

Stop lamps must be visible within____ to the rear
Charra [1.4K]
The answer is 300 feet. The stop lamp or lamps on the rear of a vehicle must show a red light that is set in motion upon application of the service or foot brake and, in a vehicle manufactured or assembled on or after January 1, 1964, must be visible from a distance of not less than 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight. Take note, if the vehicle is manufactured or assembled January 1, 1964, the stop lamp or lamps must be visible from a distance of not less than 100 feet. Also, the stop lamp may be combined with one or more other rear lamps.

Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air
frosja888 [35]

The frequency of the wave has not changed.

In fact, the frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where v is the wave's speed and \lambda is the wavelength.

Applying the formula:

- In air, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{400 m/s}{2 m}=200 Hz

- underwater, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{1600 m/s}{8 m}=200 Hz

So, the frequency has not changed.

Harry is reading an online summary of the law of reflection. The site states that after light hits a mirror, the angle of reflec
tatiyna

'The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror'.This is the correct statement that corrects an error on the site.

<h3>What is the law of reflection?</h3>

The law of reflection specifies that upon reflection from a downy surface, the slope of the reflected ray is similar to the slope of the incident ray.

The reflected ray is consistently in the plane determined by the incident ray and perpendicular to the surface at the point of reference of the incident ray.

When the light rays descend on the smooth surface, the angle of reflection is similar to the angle of incidence, also the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface all lie in a similar plane.

Hence 'The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror'.This is the correct statement that corrects an error on the site

To learn more about the law of reflection refer to the link;
