Answer:

B. 25 feet

Explanation:

In most cities in US, passenger car brakes must stop a car moving at 20 miles per hour at 25 feet.

Therefore, the correct option is "B" 25 feet

Answer:

<u>Option-(B):</u> The ideal distance that a lawful brakes must stop a car traveling at a speed of 20 miles per hour <u>is about 20 feet.</u>

Explanation:

If are often asked not speed too much while traveling, because some times we are not able to control the machine that we are driving. And the government or the concerned authorities are directed to develop a system to prevent any damage to any person on the road. The road roads bumps are thus made to prevent any road accidents which can some times be very fatal to multiple individuals.

<u>But, we have the scientific formulas to know about the situations. As we have the equation.</u>

  • Brakes or stoppage distance= (Speed of the car)²/ speed of the same car,
  • Now if we insert the values then we get that:
  • <u>Stoppage distance= 20 feet.</u> ⇒<u> Answer.</u>

An object is traveling on a circle with a radius of 6 feet. If in 80 seconds a central angle of 9/4 radians is swept out, then f
trapecia [35]

Answer:

The angular speed of the object is 0.0281 rad/s

The linear speed of the object is 0.169 ft/s

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circle, r = 6 ft

time of motion of the object around the circle, t = 80 s

central angle formed by the object during the motion, θ = 9/4 rad = 2.25 rad

The angular speed of the object is calculated as;

\omega = \frac{\theta }{t} = \frac{2.25 \ rad}{80 \ s} = 0.0281 \ rad/s

The linear speed of the object is calculated as;

v = ωr

v = 0.0281 rad/s   x    6ft

v = 0.169 ft/s

As an intern at an engineering firm, you are asked to measure the moment of inertia of a large wheel for rotation about an axis
klio [65]

Hi there!

We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.

Use the kinematic equation:

d = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

The block starts from rest, so:

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\12 = \frac{1}{2}a(4^2)\\\\\frac{24}{16} = a = 1.5 m/s^2

Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:

F = ma = m_bg - T

mb = mass of the block

T = tension of string

Solve for tension:

T = m_bg - ma = 8.2(9.8) - 8.2(1.5) = 68.06 N

Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:

\Sigma \tau = rF\\\\\Sigma\tau = rT

Rewrite:

I\alpha = rT

We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:

\alpha = a/r\\\\\alpha = 1.5/.42= 3.57 rad/sec^2

Now, plug in the values into the equation:

I(3.57) = (0.42)(68.06)\\\\I = (0.42)(68.06)/(3.57) = \boxed{8.00 kgm^2}
