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.

What do you mean by velocity ratio of a wheel and axle

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

In wheel and axle. …with the system is the velocity ratio, or the ratio of the velocity (VF) with which the operator pulls the rope at F to the velocity at which the weight W is raised (VW). This ratio is equal to twice the radius of the large drum divided by the difference…

A football player runs down a field with a speed of 8 m/s. How long will it take him to run 20m?

Shtirlitz [24]

To find the answer for this question, you simply need to divide 20 by 8, which is the speed he is traveling.

20 / 8 = 2.5

The football player will run 20 yards in 2 1/2 seconds.
Hope that helped! =)

A motorcycle has 100,000 J of kinetic energy and is traveling at 20 m/s. Find its mass.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 500 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{2KE}{ {v}^{2} } \\$

v is the velocity

KE is the kinetic energy

From the question we have

$m = \frac{2 \times 100000}{ {20}^{2} } = \frac{200000 }{400} = \frac{2000}{4} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

An hydrogen molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms whose total mass is 3.3×10−27 kg and whose moment of inertia about an axis p

dlinn [17]

Answer:

$6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m$

Explanation:

I = Moment of inertia = $4\times 10^{-48}\ kg m^2$

m = Mass of two atoms = 2m = $3.3\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

r = distance between axis and rotation mass

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

$I=mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=2mr^2\\\Rightarrow 4\times 10^{-48}=3.3\times 10^{-27}\times r^2\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 10^{-48}}{3.3\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow r=3.48155\times 10^{-11}\ m$

The distance between the atoms will be two times the distance between axis and rotation mass.

$d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.48155\times 10^{-11}\\\Rightarrow d=6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m$

Therefore, the distance between the two atoms is $6.9631\times 10^{-11}\ m$
