Answer:

t = 16.94 s

Explanation:

t is the time passes before police catch the speeder

speed of speeder Vo = V = 23.3 m/s

T = t

Police Info

Vo = 0 m/s

a = 2.75 m/s^2

t = t

Now,

displacement of the police car = displacement of the speeder.

x_{police} = Vo *t + 1/2 at^2

since Vo = 0

x police = 1/2 at^2

x police = 1/2 (2.75)(t)^2

Now the displacement of speeder is

x_{speeder} = Vt

x_{speeder} = 23.3 t

x_{speeder} = x_{police}

23.3 t = 1/2 * 2.75 t^2

23.3 t = 1.375 t^2

t = 23.3\1.375

t = 16.94

t = 16.94 s

What happens to an electromagnetic wave as it passes from space to matter?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

When an electromagnetic wave passes from space to matter, some part of the energy is absorbed by the matter and it increases its energy. The wave may reflect and some part may pass through the matter depending on the amount of energy they have. The amplitude of the wave decreases if some parts of it are reflected.

An object falls from a high building and hits the ground in 8.0 seconds. Ignoring air resistance, what is the distance that it f
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

310 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

t = 8.0 s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (8.0 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (8.0 s)²

Δy = -313.6

Rounded to two significant figures, the object fell 310 meters.

What is the difference between Weight and Mass?<br>Please give a fair amount of detail!
Sidana [21]
The <em>mass</em> of an object is a measure of how much stuff it's made of.  So it's
a property of the object, like the object's length or color.  It doesn't depend on
where the object is located right now, or on what else is around it..

The <em>weight</em> of an object is the measure of the gravitational force between it
and something else.  The strength of the force depends on the size of both
masses, and also on how far apart they are.  So the weight does depend on
where the object is located right now, and on what else is around it.

I think that sums it up fairly well.
