Answer: 75.02 m
Explanation:
u = 0 ( starts from rest )
v = 50 m/s
t = 3 s
( i ) a = v - u / t
= 50 - 0 /3
= 16.67
( ii ) s = ut + 1/2 at²
= 0 × 3 + 1/2 × 16.67 × 3 × 3
= <u>75.02 m</u>
Hope this helps...
Answer:
Current = 8696 A
Fraction of power lost = 
= 0.151
Explanation:
Electric power is given by
where I is the current and V is the voltage.
Using values from the question,
The power loss is given by
where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of 
per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is
Hence,
The fraction lost = 
To solve this problem, we use the equation:
<span>d = (v^2 - v0^2) /
2a</span>
where,
d = distance of collapse
v0 = initial velocity = 101 km / h = 28.06 m / s
v = final velocity = 0
a = acceleration = - 300 m / s^2
d = (-28.06 m / s)^2 / (2 * - 300 m / s^2)
<span>d = 1.31 m</span>
The question extends beyond what I already know.
The question makes me curious.
