B. velocity at position x, velocity at position x=0, position x, and the original position
In the equation
= 
+2 a x (x - x₀)
= velocity at position "x"
= velocity at position "x = 0 "
x = final position
= initial position of the object at the start of the motion
Answer:
the net force applied to the car is zero.
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object (a) is directly proportional to the net force applied (F):
where m is the object's mass.
In this problem, the car is moving with constant velocity: this means that the acceleration is zero, a = 0. Therefore, according to the previous equation, the net force must also be zero: F = 0. So, the correct answer is
the net force applied to the car is zero.
Answer:
141.78 ft
Explanation:
When speed, u = 44mi/h, minimum stopping distance, s = 44 ft = 0.00833 mi.
Calculating the acceleration using one of Newton's equations of motion:
Note: The negative sign denotes deceleration.
When speed, v = 79mi/h, the acceleration is equal to when it is 44mi/h i.e. -116206.48 mi/h^2
Hence, we can find the minimum stopping distance using:
The minimum stopping distance is 141.78 ft.
This topic is actually quite controversial, but the answer in this case would be C.
Just some food for thought, the 2nd law of thermodynamics entropy of the universe is always increasing, but that doesn't necessarily mean that earth's entropy has to. As long as the net change in entropy of the universe is increasing it doesn't matter if one planet is decreasing a nominal amount. Next, Earth as said is not a closed system and you could argue that the sunlight and energy from the sun is increasing the total energy within the system that is earth meaning that it is increasing in entropy. Next, if you consider increasing entropy as an increase in the number of possible permutations that the universe or parts of the universe can take, then it is completely possible that an ordered planet and life is possible, although rare. This theory explains why there are so many life forms and why entropy is actually increasing when divergent evolution occurs.
C. 2000 calories.
Explanation/calculation:
Specific heat capacity = calories / mass * (final temperature - initial temperature)
1 = calories / 100 * (60 - 40)
1 = calories / 100 * 20
1 * (100 * 20) = calories
1 * 2000 = calories
2000 = calories
