Technological advances clearly.

Theories change due to other peoples view on the matter and how they experiment with it, but Technology advancements are the greatest factor of all. I mean seriously, we wouldn't know of cells before the microscope and when they first invented it, it advanced further and now we can see things on a whole deeper lever.

A car, initially traveling at 81.8 mi/h, slows to rest in 7.1 s. What is the car's acceleration?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

a = -16.9 ft/s²

Explanation:

81.8 mi/hr(5280 ft/mi / 3600s/hr) = 120 ft/s

a = Δv/t = (0 - 120) / 7.1 = -16.9 ft/s²

if the initial direction is taken as the positive direction.

A slender rod is 80.0 cm long and has mass 0.390 kg . A small 0.0200-kg sphere is welded to one end of the rod, and a small 0.05
Lilit [14]

Answer:

v = 1.08 m/s

Explanation:

What is the linear speed of the 0.0500-kg sphere as its passes through its lowest point?

The decrease in PE is

d = 80.0cm * 1 / 1000m = 0.80m

h = 0.80 m /2 = 0.40 m

ΔPE = m*g*h

ΔPE = (0.0500 - 0.0200)kg * 9.8m/s² * 0.400 m

ΔPE = 0.1176 J

The moment of inertia of the assembly is

I = 1/12*m*L² + (m1 + m2)*(L/2)²

I = 1/12*0.390kg*(0.800m)² + 0.0700kg*(0.400m)²

I = 0.032 kg·m²

KE = ½Iω²

0.1176 J = ½ * 0.032kg·m² * ω²

ω = 2.71 rad/s

v = ωr = 2.71 rad/s * 0.400m

The linear velocity

v = 1.08 m/s

Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a woman accidentally steps barefoot on a thumbtack. A
sasho [114]
T = 0.017 s

From the foot to the brain is almost the same as the height. We are not given the height of the woman, but to find "about" how much time, we need a height to work with.

She *could* be 1.7 m <- height = distance

Formula for speed, where k = speed, d = distance, t = time
k = d/t
Rearrange to solve for time:
t = d/k
Substitute known values:
t = (1.7 m) / (100 m/s)
Solve:
t = 0.017 s

Therefore, it takes about 0.017s for the impulse to travel from the foot to the brain.
