Two cars start a race with initial velocity 7ms-1 and 4ms-1 respectively.Their acceleration are 0.4ms-2 and 0.5ms-2 respectively

.If the two cars finish the race at the same time,what is the distance of the track?

The distance of the track is 600 m

Explanation:

The two cars move by uniformly accelerated motion, so we the distance they cover after a time t is described by the following suvat equation

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

For car 1, we have

d_1 = u_1 t + \frac{1}{2}a_1 t^2

where

u_1 = 7 m/s is the initial velocity of car 1

a_1 = 0.4 m/s^2 is the acceleration of car 1

So the equation can be rewritten as

d_1 = 7t + 0.2t^2

For car 2, we have

d_2 = u_2 t + \frac{1}{2}a_2 t^2

where

u_2 = 4 m/s is the initial velocity of car 2

a_2 = 0.5 m/s^2 is the acceleration of car 2

So the equation can be rewritten as

d_2= 5t + 0.25t^2

The two cars finish the race at the same time: this means that they cover the same distance in the same time t, so we can write

d_1 = d_2\\7t + 0.2t^2=5t + 0.25t^2

And solving for t, we find

2t - 0.05t^2= 0\\t(2-0.05t)=0

Which gives two solutions:

t = 0 (initial instant)

t = 40 s

Therefore, the distance of the track is

d_1 = 7t +0.2t^2 = 7\cdot 40+0.2\cdot 40^2=600 m

If a nucleus was as big as a nonpareil, an atom would be ____
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

small marble  

Explanation:

A nonpareil are confectionery tiny ball items that are made up of starch and sugar. It is very small of the size of sugar crystal or sand grains. They were the miniature version of the comfits. They are generally opaque white but bow available in all colors.

In the context, if the nucleus is compared to the size of a nonpareil then its atom would be of the size of small size marble. An atom is bigger in size than that of nucleus as the nucleus is located inside the atoms.

The nuclear charge an electron actually experiences is called the effective nuclear charge. This charge is always less than the
Vesna [10]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This charge becomes less because of interference of other electrons because of which a portion of positive charge on nucleus is cancelled out thus resulting in decrease of force due to negative charge on an electron and a portion reduced positive charge on nucleus. Thus an electron experiences an effective nuclear charge which is less than the actual nuclear charge if other electrons were not present. This effect is called electrom shielding -- True!

The core of the Sun is Group of answer choices
kap26 [50]

Answer:

2. much hotter and much denser than its surface

Explanation:

We know that the temperature around the center of the Sun is about 1.57×10⁷ K and its density is about 162 g/cm³.

Now, the temperature and the density decrease as one moves outward from the center of the Sun, the temperature at the surface of the sun is about 5×10³ K and the density as an average in the surface is about 1.4 g/cm³.

Therefore the answer is:

2. much hotter and much denser than its surface.  

I hope it helps you!

Have a nice day!
