(a) Calculate the force (in N) needed to bring a 1100 kg car to rest from a speed of 85.0 km/h in a distance of 125 m (a fairly

nasty-shy [4]

(a) -2451 N

We can start by calculating the acceleration of the car. We have:

$u=85.0 km/h = 23.6 m/s$ is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 125 m is the stopping distance

So we can use the following equation

$v^2 - u^2 = 2ad$

To find the acceleration of the car, a:

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}=\frac{0-(23.6 m/s)^2}{2(125 m)}=-2.23 m/s^2$

Now we can use Newton's second Law:

F = ma

where m = 1100 kg to find the force exerted on the car in order to stop it; we find:

$F=(1100 kg)(-2.23 m/s^2)=-2451 N$

and the negative sign means the force is in the opposite direction to the motion of the car.

(b) $-1.53\cdot 10^5 N$

We can use again the equation

$v^2 - u^2 = 2ad$

To find the acceleration of the car. This time we have

$u=85.0 km/h = 23.6 m/s$ is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 2.0 m is the stopping distance

Substituting and solving for a,

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}=\frac{0-(23.6 m/s)^2}{2(2 m)}=-139.2 m/s^2$

So now we can find the force exerted on the car by using again Newton's second law:

$F=ma=(1100 kg)(-139.2 m/s^2)=-1.53\cdot 10^5 N$

As we can see, the force is much stronger than the force exerted in part a).

What best describes the direction of the electric field on a spherical equipotential surface?

Alla [95]

Answer:

Perpendicular to the surface

Explanation:

- Electric field lines represent the direction of the electric field. The electric field lines also correspond to the direction along which the gradient of the electric potential is maximum.

- Equipotentials are lines or surfaces along which the electric potential is constant: the electric potential does not change moving along an equipotential surface.

Given the two definitions, equipotential lines are always perpendicular to the electric field lines. Therefore, in this problem, the direction of the electric field is perpendicular to the spherical equipotential surface.

a heavy jar sits on top of a 3.4 m shelf with a gravitational potential energy of 180 j. What is the mass of the jar?

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

5.2941176471 kg or 5294.1 grams

Explanation:

g.p.e= mgh

g.p.e/gh=m

180j/10×3.4= m

180/34= m

5.2941 kg= m

How does the law of conservation of energy apply to a light bulb? the electrical energy put into the light bulb equals the light

andrew-mc [135]

<span>The law of conservation of energy applies to a light bulb because the energy is being transformed into light and the light bulb is acting as a catalyst. The light bulb itself is not a form of energy, however when in combination with the electrical outlet to the bulb the electricity heats up the metal interior forming it into light. according to the law of conservation energy cannot be created or destroyed, but instead is formed into different kinds of energy. In relation to a light bulb electrical currents are forming heat energy by heating up the metal interior, then the bulb or glass around it allows to radiate light.</span>
