Formula One racers speed up much more quickly than normal passenger vehicles, and they also can stop in a much shorter distance.

A Formula One racer travelling at 90 m/s can stop in a distance of 110 m.

Answer

given,

initial speed of the car = 90 m/s

final speed of the car = 0 m/s

distance taken to stop = 110 m

calculating the acceleration of the car = ?

using the equation of motion

v² - u² = 2 a s

0² - 90² = 2 x a x 100

$a = \dfrac{-90^2}{2\times 100}$

a = 40.5 m/s²

acceleration of the formula one car is equal to a = 40.5 m/s²

The Reynolds number, rho VD/mu, is a very important parameter in fluid mechanics. Verify that the Reynolds number is dimensionle

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Re = 1 10⁴

Explanation:

Reynolds number is

Re = ρ v D /μ

The units of each term are

ρ = [kg / m³]

v = [m / s]

D = [m]

μ = [Pa s]

The pressure

Pa = [N / m²] = [Kg m / s²] 1 / [m²] = [kg / m s²]

μ = [Pa s] = [kg / m s²] [s] = [kg / m s]

We substitute the units in the equation

Re = [kg / m³] [m / s] [m] / [kg / m s]

Re = [kg / m s] / [m s / kg]

RE = [ ]

Reynolds number is a scalar

Let's evaluate for the given point

Where the data for methane are:

viscosity μ = 11.2 10⁻⁶ Pa s

the density ρ = 0.656 kg / m³

D = 2 in (2.54 10⁻² m / 1 in) = 5.08 10⁻² m

Re = 0.656 4 2 5.08 10⁻² /11.2 10⁻⁶

Re = 1.19 10⁴

When a rattlesnake strikes, its head accelerates from rest to a speed of 32 m/s in 0.63 seconds. Assume for simplicity that the

irina [24]

Answer:

Power, P = 162.53 Watts

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 200 g = 0.2 kg

Initial speed of the snake, u = 0

Final speed of the snake, v = 32 m/s

Time, t = 0.63 s

Power of an object is given by :

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

$P=\dfrac{\Delta K}{t}$

$P=\dfrac{mv^2}{2t}$

$P=\dfrac{0.2\times (32)^2}{2\times 0.63}$

P = 162.53 Watts

So, the power of the rattlesnake is 162.53 Watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

A proton is shot perpendicularly at an infinite plane of charge. The charge density of the plane is +7.65×10^−4 C/m^2. If the pr

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The velocity is $2.94\times10^{6}\ m/s$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge density of the plane $\sigma=7.65\times10^{−4}\ C/m^2$

Distance = 1.05 mm

We need to calculate the electric field due to plane of charge

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{7.65\times10^{−4}}{2\times8.85\times10^{-12}}$

$E=4.322\times10^{7}\ N/C$

We need to calculate potential difference

Using formula of potential difference

$V=E\times r$

Put the value into the formula

$V=4.322\times10^{7}\times1.05\times10^{-3}$

$V=4.5381\times10^{4}\ Volt$

We need to calculate the work requires to be done to reach the surface of the plane

Using formula of work done

$W=qV$

Put the value into the formula

$W = 1.6\times10^{-19}\times4.5381\times10^{4}$

$W=7.26096\times10^{-15}\ J$

We need to calculate the velocity

Using work energy theorem

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v^2=\dfrac{2W}{m}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times7.26096\times10^{-15}}{1.67\times10^{-27}}}$

$v=2.94\times10^{6}\ m/s$

Hence, The velocity is $2.94\times10^{6}\ m/s$ .
