2.85 A police car is traveling at a velocity of 18.0 m/s due north, when a car zooms by at a constant velocity of 42.0 m/s due n
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

11.1 s

Explanation:  

Speed of the police car as given = v = 18 m/s

Speed of the car = V = 42 m/s

Reaction time = t = 0.8 s

Distance traveled by the police car during the reaction time = d₁= 0.8 x 18 = 14.4 m

Distance traveled by speeding car = d₂ =0.8 x 42 = 33.6 m

Acceleration of the police car = a = 5 m/s/s

The police car can catch the speeding car only if it travels a distance equal to the speeding car in a time t.

Distance traveled by the police car = D = d₁ + v t +0.5 at², according to the kinematic equation.

⇒ D = 14.4 + 18 t + 0.5 (5) t²

⇒ D = 14.4 + 18 t+2.5 t²  → (1)

For the speeding car, distance traveled is D = 33.6 + 42 t, since it is constant velocity. Substitute for D from the above equation (1).

⇒ 14.4 + 18 t+2.5 t²=  33.6 + 42 t

⇒ 2.5 t² -24 t - 19.2 = 0

⇒ t = 10.3 s

Total time = t +0.8 s

⇒ Time taken for the police car to reach the speeding car = 10.3+0.8= 11.1 s

A spring whose spring constant is 270 lbf/in has an initial force of 100 lbf acting on it. Determine the work, in Btu, required
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

0.02585 BTU

Explanation:

Given: Spring constant, k = 270 lbf/in

Initial force, f =100 lbf

Compression, x = 1 in

Work done can be calculated as follows:

W = \int {(f+kx)} \, dx \\W = fx + \frac{1}{2}kx^2\\W= (100 lbf)(1 in)+ \frac{1}{2}(270 lbf/in)(1 in)^2\\W= 100+135 = 235 lbf in\\W=235 \times 0.00011 BTU = 0.02585 BTU

A very smart 3-year-old child is given a wagon for her birthday. She refuses to use it. "After all," she says, "Newton's third l
natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

She's correct but doesn't mean the wagon cannot put into motion. The force that she applied on the wagon, according to Newton's 2nd law, would have generated an acceleration, which translates into motion. The reaction force the wagon applies on her due to Newton's 3rd law, would not hinder its own motion.
