You testify as an "expert witness" in a case involving an accident in which car A slid into the rear of car B, which was stopped

at a red light along a road headed down a hill. You find that the slope of the hill is θ = 12.0°, that the cars were separated by distance d = 25.0 m when the driver of car A put the car into a slide (it lacked any automatic anti-brake-lock system), and that the speed of car A at the onset of braking was v0 = 18.0 m/s.
(a) With what speed did car A hit car B if the coefficient of kinetic friction was 0.60 (dry road surface)?
____ m/s

(b) What was the speed if the coefficient of kinetic friction was 0.10 (road surface covered with wet leaves)?
____ m/s

F=mgsinα –F(fr)=

= mgsinα - μmgcosα

a=F/m =g(sinα – μcosα)

=9.8(sin14-0.57•cos14)= -3.04 m/s²

v²=v₀²+2ad

v=sqrt{ v₀²+2ad} =

=sqrt{18²+2• (-3.04) •25}=13.1 m/

The acceleration due to gravity is higher on juniper Than on earth. The mass and weight of rock on juniper compared to that on e
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 times higher then that on the Earth

Explanation:

Gravity is higher on Jupiter then on Earth because Jupiter is much bigger, because of it's mass compared to Earth the gravity on Jupiter is about 2.4 - 2.5 times higher then Earths surface gravity which means a rock on Jupiter would be around "2.4 - 2.5 times as heavier then it would be on Earth."

Hope this helps.

How to calculate the slope of position time graph?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The slope of a position-time graph can be calculated as:

m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}

where

\Delta y is the increment in the y-variable

\Delta x is the increment in the x-variable

We can verify that the slope of this graph is actually equal to the velocity. In fact:

\Delta y corresponds to the change in position, so it is the displacement, \Delta s

\Delta x corresponds to the change in time \Delta t, so the time interval

Therefore the slope of the graph is equal to

m=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}

which corresponds to the definition of velocity.

How many energy levels do the electrons occupy for a neutral Oxygen atom? *
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The neutral state of an atom is when it's net charge is zero; that is, the number of protons equals the numbers of electrons. Oxygen is the eighth element in the periodic table, with the symbol O. This means that it has eight electrons in its neutral state. Since it is neutral, it also has eight protons!
