Answer:

-352.275KJ

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of car=1500kg

Initial speed of car =u=96 km/h=96\times \frac{5}{18}=26.67m/s

1km/h=\frac{5}{18}m/s

Final speed of car=v=56km/h=56\times \frac{5}{18}=15.56m/s

Distance traveled by car=s=55m

We have to find the work done by the car's braking system.

Using third equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

(15.56)^2-(26.67)^2=2a(55)

-469.18=110a

a=\frac{-469.18}{110}=-4.27m/s^2

Where negative sign indicates that velocity of car decreases.

Work done by a car's barking system=w=F\times s=ma\times s

Work done by a car's barking system=1500\times -4.27\times 55=352275J

Work done by a car's barking system=-\frac{352275}{1000}=-352.275KJ

1KJ=1000J

Where negative sign indicates that work done in opposite direction of motion.

Answer:

Work done by the car's braking system W = 3.519×10^5 J

Explanation:

we can apply newton's equation of motion to find acceleration

as

apply v^2 -u^2 = 2as

v= final velocity

u= initial velocity

also 1 kmph = 5/18 m/s

v= 56×5/18= 15.6 m/s

u= 96×5/18 = 26.66 m/s

s= 55 m

so a = [(26.66)^2 -(15.4)^2]/2×55

a = 4.26 m/s^2

so F = ma

Mass m= 1500 kg

F = 1500×4.26

F = 6397.306 N

Now work done  W = F×s

W = 6397.306×55

W = 3.519×10^5 J

What is the percentage of the incoming solar radiation from the top of the atmosphere the gets reflected right back out into spa
san4es73 [151]

Answer: We can define the solar constant as a measure of the luminous flux density.

Explanation:

The solar constant or solar constant is the amount of energy radiated at the upper limit of the Earth's atmosphere per unit time perpendicular to the unit surface, at the Earth's mean distance from the sun. Amounts to 1367.7 W / m² ± 6 W / m². The sun's constant includes all kinds of electromagnetic radiation, not just visible light. The average value is 1,368 kW / m2 and changes slightly with solar cycles. The amount of these constant changes over one year and has different benefits.

A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

15.75 m

Explanation:

First, let's look at the top brick by itself.  In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick.  So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.

Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass.  We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m.  And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge.  So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

When a object slows down what direction is the force going?
trapecia [35]

Answer: when a object gets slowed down, it's force is either going into friction and drag, if it's on the ground, and weight+drag+friction, if it's in the air.

Which term describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane? View Available Hint(s) Which term describes the diff
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Membrane potential

Explanation:

Membrane potential is describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane.                                                                                                              

The difference in potential between exterior  and  interior of the  biological cell is known as Membrane potential.Generally it is denoted by  millivolts like mV and varies from -80 V to -40 V.

So the answer is Membrane potential
