Answer:

1. 3 m

2. 27 s

Explanation:

1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop.  If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"

Given:

v₀ = 33 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -5.5 m/s²

Unknown: Δx

To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for.  In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time.  So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.

Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute and solve:

(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 3 m

2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m.  How long did it take to accelerate?"

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 4.8 m/s²

Δx = 1800 m

Unknown: t

Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²

Substitute and solve:

1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²

t ≈ 27 s

In most cases, what happens to a liquid when it cools?
erik [133]

Answer:

Option (A) and (F)

Explanation:

As the liquid cools down, it means the temperature decreases the density of the liquid increases in most o the cases.

Now the volume is inversely proportional to the density of substance so density increases.

Write the equation expressing the relationship "y varies directly as x." use k as the constant of proportionality.
Alexeev081 [22]

The equation expressing the statement "y varies directly as x"  is y=kx.

Explanation

The statement that y varies directly as x is analogous to saying that  the ratio of y to x is constant. In other words, when x increases, y likewise increases and that when x decreases, y decreases proportionally.

Mathematically, we express the relationship that the ration of y is to x is constant is expressed as; \frac{y}{x} =k where k is the constant of proportionality.

We can then solve the relationship for y to determine the correct form of the relationship as shown below,

\frac{y}{x} =k\\\rightarrow y=kx

Why is it important to know the direction of the force applied to a moving object and the direction in which the object is movin
ELEN [110]
C is correct.  The work-force relation is given by W=F·d, where F is force vector, and d is the displacement vector.  The dot is the dot product, which is a measure of how parallel the two vectors are.  It can be restated as the product of two vector magnitudes times the cosine of the angle between them.  Therefore work is a scalar, not a vector, since the dot product returns a scalar.

A positively charged object is brought near but not in contact with the top of an uncharged gold leaf electroscope. The experime
Olin [163]

Answer:

The leaves of the electroscope move further apart.

Explanation:

This is what happens; when the positive object is brought near the top, negative charges migrating from the gold leaves to the top. This is because the negative charges in the gold are attracted by the positive charge. Thus, it leaves behind a net positive charge on the leaves, though the scope remains neutral overall. To that effect, the leaves repel each other and move apart. If a finger touches the top of the electroscope at the moment when the positive object remains near the top, it basically grounds the electroscope and thus the net positive charge in the leaves flows to the ground through the finger. However, the positive object continues to "hold" negative charges in place at the top. Ar this moment the gold leaves have lost their net positive charge, so they no longer repel, and they move closer together. If the positive object is moved away, the negative charges at the top are no longer attracted to the top, and they redistribute themselves throughout the electroscope, moving into the leaves and charging them negatively.

Thus, the leaves move apart from each other again and we now have a negatively charged electroscope. If a negatively charged object is now brought close to the top, but without touching, the negative charges already in the electroscope will be repelled down toward the leaves, thereby making them more negative, causing them to repel more, and hence move even further apart.

So, the leaves move further apart.
