The force needed to the stop the car is -3.79 N.

Explanation:

The force required to stop the car should have equal magnitude as the force required to move the car but in opposite direction. This is in accordance with the Newton's third law of motion. Since, in the present problem, we know the kinetic energy and velocity of the moving car, we can determine the mass of the car from these two parameters.

So, here v = 30 m/s and k.E. = 3.6 × 10⁵ J, then mass will be

K.E = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2}  \\\\m = \frac{2*KE}{v^{2} } = \frac{2*3.6*10^{5} }{30*30}=800 kg

Now, we know that the work done by the brake to stop the car will be equal to the product of force to stop the car with the distance travelled by the car on applying the brake.Here it is said that the car travels 95 m after the brake has been applied. So with the help of work energy theorem,

Work done = Final kinetic energy - Initial kinetic energy

Work done = Force × Displacement

So, Force × Displacement = Final kinetic energy - Initial Kinetic energy.

Force * 95 = 0-3.6*10^{5}\\ \\Force =\frac{-3.6*10^{5} }{95}=-3.79 N

Thus, the force needed to the stop the car is -3.79 N.

The fact that there are seasons on the earth is largely due to
Andrews [41]
The main reason Earth have Seasons it's because of the Earth tilt. One side would be tilted to the sun which causes summer and the other side would be tilted away whitch causes Winter.

The S side of Earth for example is face to the sun which is summer

The N side of Earth of pointed away which is winter.

an always be used to calculate the electric field. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge en
Temka [501]

Complete Question:

Gauss's law:

Group of answer choices

A. can always be used to calculate the electric field.

B. relates the electric field throughout space to the charges distributed through that space.

C. only applies to point charges.

D. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

E. relates the surface charge density to the electric field.

Answer:

D. relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Which technique is best for manual in-line stabilization of a person floating faceup on the surface?
zmey [24]

Answer:

vise grip

Explanation:

Manual in-line stabilization (MILS) of the cervical spine is a type of airway management when dealing with  patients in traumatic condition ..it is a means that is performed by grasping the mastoid process of the patient, so as to prevent the movement of the cervical column during intubation of the trachea

MLS provides a means of stability to the cervical column for a patient in trauma. During this technique, a patient is restricted from moving his or her cervical collar. The vise grip can be used for a patient with neck injury. The technique is used to roll a patient to face up to prevent further injuries.

Could anyone help me out ?
Delicious77 [7]

density = mass/volume = 100kg/10ml = 10kg/ml

voluime = mass/density = 50g/2 g/ml = 25 ml

mass = density x volume = 2x55 = 110 kg
