Answer:

45 s

Explanation:

To find the time it takes to stop, we first find the deceleration, a of the car from

v² = u² + 2as and a = (v² - u²)/2s were v = final velocity of car = 0 mph = 0 m/s, u = initial velocity of car = 30 mph = 30 × 1609.34 ft ÷ 3600 s = 13.41 ft/s and s = distance = 300 ft. Substituting the values into a, we ave

a = (v² - u²)/2s = (0² - 13.41²)/2×300 = -0.3 ft/s²

We then find the time for this deceleration from v = u + at ⇒ t = (v - u)/a

t = (v - u)/a = (0 - 13.41 ft/s)/-0.3 ft/s² = - 13.41 ft/s/-0.3 ft/s² = 44.7 s ≅ 45 s

So it takes 45 seconds to stop.

A table tennis ball has a mass of about 2.45 g. Suppose the ball is hit across the table with a speed of 4.0 m/s. What is it’s k
cluponka [151]

Answer:

0.0196 j

Explanation:

i) The formula for kinetic energy is as follows: 0.5*m*v^2

ii) Since we have all the values all that's left is to plug them into the equation

iii) First, WE MUST, Convert grams into kgs as this is the SI unit of mass so 2.45/1000

iv) All that's left now is to plug it into the equation so:

0.5* (s.45/1000)*(4^2)

v) Lastly we add the unit joules at the end as we're talking about energy

Hope this was useful! :)

Marcus tells Sabrina that for the last few months, he has not been able to detect moderate heat or cold with his fingertips. Whi
hram777 [196]

Answer: The free ending nerves.

Explanation:

At our fingertips, we have a lot of sensory nerve endings, that give information about changes that occur at your skin.

Like touching something with a given texture, feeling pain, or noticing changes in temperature.

There are different types of nerve endings, particularly the ones responsible to detect pain, and temperature are the free nerve endings.

So Marcus may have the free nerve endings damaged.

Help quick<br> p;leaseeeeeeeeeeee its about direction and magnitude
KonstantinChe [14]

Explanation:

The net force of each square is the combination of the forces in each direction. The direction is the... direction the square would go in due to the net force. The magnitude of the net force is how large it is. So if you had a force pushing 2N to the left and 1N to the right, then the net force would be 1N to the left; because the two oppose eachother. If they were going in the same direction, then they'd add to each other. And perpendicular net forces (like one pushing up and another pushing left) can create net forces in diagonal directions.

I'm not going to do all of these for you because they're basically all the same thing and it's good practice for you anyway. But I'll do the first three just so you can get the idea:

1. The net force's magnitude is 4N and it's direction is to the right.

2. The net force's magnitude is 4N and it's direction is to the left.

3. The net force's magnitude is 0N and it has no direction because they are equal forces acting in opposite directions.
