A 2000 kg car experiences a constant braking force

1 answer:

4 0

In that case, there are three possible scenarios:

-- If the braking force is less than the force delivered by the engine,
then the car will continue to accelerate, and the brakes will eventually
overheat and erupt in flame.

-- If the braking force is exactly equal to the force delivered by the engine,
then the car will continue moving at a constant speed, and the brakes will
eventually overheat and erupt in flame.

-- If the braking force is greater than the force delivered by the engine,
then the car will slow down and eventually stop. If it stops soon enough,
then the absorption of kinetic energy by the brakes will end before the
brakes overheat and erupt in flame. Even if the engine is still delivering
force, the brakes can be kept locked in order to keep the car stopped ...
They do not absorb and dissipate any energy when the car is motionless.

A fire engine is moving south at 35 m/s while blowing its siren at a frequency of 400 Hz.

vodomira [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as

$f_d= f_s \frac{(v+v_d)}{(v-v_s)}$

Here,

$f_d$ =frequency received by detector

$f_s$ =frequency of wave emitted by source

$v_d$ =velocity of detector

$v_s$ =velocity of source

v=velocity of sound wave

Replacing we have that,

$f_d = 400(\frac{(343+18)}{(343-35)})$

$f_d=422 Hz$

Therefore the frequencty that will hear the passengers is 422Hz

In an inelastic collision a 2.5 kg ball moving at 7.5 m/s is caught by a 70kg man while the man is standing on ice. What is the

MrRa [10]

The velocity of the ball and the man is 0.259 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, in an isolated system, the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved. Therefore, for the ball-man system, we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$

where:

$m_1 = 2.5 kg$ is the mass of the ball

$u_1 = 7.5 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the ball

$m_2 = 70 kg$ is the mass of the man

$u_2 = 0$ is the initial velocity of the man

$v$ is the final velocity of the man and the ball after the collision

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the values, we find the final velocity:

$v=\frac{m_1 u_1}{m_1+m_2}=\frac{(2.5)(7.5)}{2.5+70}=0.259 m/s$

So, the man and the ball slides on the ice at 0.259 m/s.

Which of the following can only be a situation of increasing temperature?

Papessa [141]

Increasing the temperature causes an increase in the average kinetic energy of the particles of a material.

<h3>What is average kinetic energy of particles?</h3>

The average kinetic energy of particles is the energy possessed by particles due to their constant motion.

The constant motion of particles occurs due to the energy acquired by the particles, when the temperature of the particles increases, the average kinetic energy increases which in turn increases the speed of the particles.

Thus, we can conclude that, increasing the temperature causes an increase in the average kinetic energy of the particles of a material.

If Neptune’s mass were reduced, what could be done to maintain the same force of gravitational attraction between Neptune and th

Alenkinab [10]

Make Neptune closer to the sun because then it would have a stronger gravitation pull. Because the closer the objects are, they will have a stronger gravitaional force and when the object has more mass, the gravity is also stronger. So, if the mass is reduced, the gravity force would be reduced, but if you bring neptune closer, the gravity force would increase
