In Europe, gas cost approximately €0.98 per liter. How many dollars($) per gallon is this? using a factor method

bixtya [17]

Answer:

€0.98 per liter = 4.377 doller per gallon

Explanation:

It is given that, In Europe, gas cost approximately €0.98 per liter. We need to convert it into dollars($) per gallon.

We know that, 1 euro = 1.18 United States Dollar

1 litre = 0.264172 US gallon

Cost of gas in Europe is €0.98 per liter.

$0.98\ \text{euro/ liter}=\dfrac{0.98\times 1.18\ \text{doller}}{0.264172\ \text{gallon}}\\\\=4.377\ \text{doller/gallon}$

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

$v^2 -u^2 = 2ad$ (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

$F=ma=-\mu mg$

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

$\mu = 0.80$ is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

$a=-\mu g$

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

$v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m$

.) WHat is the force that causes the pendulum to fall?<br>

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The two forces that affect on the pendulum are the force of gravity,

Explanation:

⇒ There is the force of gravity that acts downward upon the bob. It results from the Earth's mass attracting the mass of the bob. And there is a tension force acting upward and towards the pivot point of the pendulum.

Therefore, I hope this helps!
