Answer:

56250 N

Explanation:

mass, m = 6000 kg

initial speed, u = 20 m/s

final speed, v = 5 m/s

distance, s = 20 m

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

5 x 5 = 20 x 20 + 2 a x 20

25 = 400 + 40 a

a = - 9.375 m/s^2

Braking force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 6000 x 9.375

F = 56250 N

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(a) 19.71801m/s Velocity just before going up the ramp.

(b) 74.56338m.

Explanation:

We will solve it in two parts, first we will calculate time that 5kg wooden block would take to just reach ramp and with this time we will calculate final velocity that the wooden block would have in this time.

Second, we will calculate the component of velocity vector along inclined plane and the time that it would take for velocity to be 0 meters/s then with this time we will calculate the distance that inclined plane would travel along inclined plane.

Following formulas will be used.

                                  x(t) = \frac{1}{2} t^2 = 12m =16.2m/s^2 t^2

                                 F =ma

                                 V(t) = V_{o} +at

                                 x(t) = x_{0} +v_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}a t^2

(a) Calculating velocity right before going up the ramp.

 Wooden block is going on a straightaway and has net for on it.

         F_{n} =F-F_{s} = F-uF_{n}  = 100N-0.4*9.8m/s^2*5kg =81N

     and this force produces acceleration of

      a = \frac{F}{m}=\frac{81}{5} =16.2m/s^2 .

With this acceleration, wooden block would reach at the foot of ramp in.

          x(t) = 12m = 16.2m/s^2*t^2

         t = 1.217s

and final velocity will be

v(t) = v_{0}+at = 0+16.2m/s^2*1.2171s = 19.7180m/s.

this velocity of wooden box just before going up the ramp.

(b) How far up the ramp will the wooden block go before stopping.

Ramp is at 20° relative to horizontal therefore velocity along the ramp that the wooden block would have will be.

                              V= V_{h}cos(20) = 18.5288m/s

and deceleration along the ramp is

                              a = \frac{F_{s} }{m}

 Where F_{s} force of friction along the inclined plane.

F_s =  uF_n = u*m*a

a = 9.8m/s^2*cos(20) = 9.2089m/s^2

is a component of g along normal of the inclined plane.

                               F_{s} = 0.25*5kg*9.2089m/s^2

                              = 11.5112N

                              a = \frac{11.5112N}{5kg} = 2.3022m/s^2

And with this deceleration time needed to get wooded block to stop is.

                     v(t) = v_o-at = 18.5288m/s-2.3022m/s^2*t = 0

                        t = \frac{18.5288m/s}{2.3022m/s^2} =8.04813s

 and in that time wooden block would travel

   x(8.04813s) = 18.52881m/s *8.04813s-\frac{1}{} 2.3022m/s^2*(8.0481)^2=74.56338m

This is how up wooden box will go before coming to stop.

An initially motionless test car is accelerated to 115 km/h in 8.58 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in contact wi
hoa [83]

Answer:

a)       a = 3.72 m / s², b)    a = -18.75 m / s²

Explanation:

a) Let's use kinematics to find the acceleration before the collision

             v = v₀ + at

as part of rest the v₀ = 0

             a = v / t

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              v = 115 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s)

              v = 31.94 m / s

              v₂ = 60 km / h = 16.66 m / s

l

et's calculate

             a = 31.94 / 8.58

             a = 3.72 m / s²

b) For the operational average during the collision let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

            I = Δp

            F Δt = m v_f - m v₀

            F = \frac{m ( v_f - v_o)}{t}

            F = m [16.66 - 31.94] / 0.815

            F = m (-18.75)

Having the force let's use Newton's second law

            F = m a

            -18.75 m = m a

             a = -18.75 m / s²

The correct option to the question is Matter.

Matter makes up everything. matter can be solid, liquid, or gas. matter is made up of atoms, or tiny particles that are the smallest unit of matter.

Moreover, Matter can be described as,

Matter is anything that has occupies space (has mass and volume).

4.2 mol of monatomic gas A interacts with 3.2 mol of monatomic gas B. Gas A initially has 9500 J of thermal energy, but in the p
Komok [63]

Answer:

14657.32 J

Explanation:

Given Parameters ;

Number of moles mono atomic gas A ,   n 1  =  4 .2 mol

Number of moles mono atomic gas B ,   n 2  =  3.2mol

Initial energy of gas A ,   K A  =  9500  J

Thermal energy given by gas A to gas B ,   Δ K  =  600 J

Gas constant   R  = 8.314  J / molK

Let  K B  be the initial energy of gas B.

Let T be the equilibrium temperature of the gas after mixing.

Then we can write the energy of gas A after mixing as

(3/2)n1RT = KA - ΔK

⟹ (3/2) x 4.2 x 8.314 x T = 9500 - 600

T = (8900 x 3 )/(2x4.2x8.314) = 382.32 K

Energy of the gas B after mixing can be written as

(3/2)n2RT = KB + ΔK

⟹ (3/2) x 3.2 x 8.314 x 382.32 = KB + 600

⟹ KB = [(3/2) x 3.2 x 8.314 x 382.32] - 600

⟹ KB = 14657.32 J
