A speeding car is travelling at a constant 30.0 m/s when it passes a stationary police car. If the police car delays for 1.00 s

before starting, what must be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the police car to catch the speeding car after the police car travels a distance of 300 m?
(A) 6.00 m/s2
(B) 3.00 m/s2
(C) 7.41 m/s2
(D) 1.45 m/s2
(E) 3.70 m/s2

Answer:

option (C)

Explanation:

Speed of car = 30 m/s

Let the time taken by the police car to catch the speeding car is t

The distance traveled by the speeding car in t + 1 second is equal to the distance traveled by the police car in time t

Distance traveled by the police car in time t

s=ut + 0.5 at^{2}    .... (1)

Distance traveled by the speeding car in t + 1 second

s = 30 (t + 1) = 300

t + 1 = 10

t = 9 s

Put the value of t in equation (1), we get

300 = 0 + 0.5 x a x 9 x 9

a = 7.41 m/s^2

A student walks 4 block east, 7 blocks west, 1 blocks east then 2 blocks west in an hour. Her average speed is____ block/hour
Gemiola [76]

Average speed = (total distance) / (total time)

Average speed = (4+7+1+2 blox) / (1 hour)

<em>Average speed = 14 blocks/hour</em>

<em></em>

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and take a wild guess:

I'm guessing that there's another question glued onto the end of this one, and it asks you to find either her displacement or her average velocity.  I'm so sure of this that I'm gonna give you the solution for that too.  If there's no more question, then you won't need this, and you can just discard it.  I won't mind.

Average velocity = (displacement) / (time for the displacement)

"Displacement" = distance and direction from the start point to the end point, regardless of how she got there.

Displacement = (4E + 7W + 1E + 2W)

Displacement = (5E + 9W)

<em>Displacement = 4 blocks west</em>

Average velocity = (4 blocks west) / (1 hour)

<em>Average velocity = 4 blocks/hour  West</em>

A piston/cylinder contains 2 kg of water at 20◦C with a volume of 0.1 m3. By mistake someone locks the piston, preventing it fro
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Hi

Final temperature = 250.11 °C

Final volume = 0,1 m3.

Process work = 0

Explanation:

The specific volume in the initial state is: v = 0.1m3/2 kg = 0.05 m3/kg.

This volume is located between the volumes as saturated liquid and saturated steam at 20 °C. For this reason the water is initially in a liquid vapor mixture. As the piston was blocked the volume remains constant and the process is isometric, also known as isocoric process, so the final temperature will be the water temperature at a saturated steam of v=0.05m3/kg, which is obtained by using steam tables for water, by linear interpolation. As follows, using table A-4 of the Cengel book 7th Edition:

v=0.05 m3/kg

v1=0.057061 m3/kg

T1=242.56°C

v2=0.049779 m3/kg

T2=250.35°C

T=\frac{T2-T1}{v2-v1} x(v-v1)+T1=\frac{250.35°C-242.56°C}{0.049779m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg}x(0.05m3/kg-0.057061m3/kg)+242.56°C=250.11°C

The process work is zero because there is no change in volume during heating:

W=PxΔv=Px0=0

where

W=process work

P=pressure

Δv=change of volume, is zero because the piston was blocked so the volume remains constant.

You are using an 8 th order low-pass filter. Determine the roll-off achievable in the stop band, in dB/dec, and determine the ph
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: The complexity of filter is the order of the filter. Greater the order of the filter, more efficient the filter is. Roll of value of one filter is 20dB/dec. So the roll-off value of 8th order filter is 160dB/dec. 8th order filter is more efficient than the second order low-pass filter.
