At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 93 m long. It was a rainy day and the coeffi

cient of friction was estimated to be 0.35. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units

Answer:

u = 25 m/s

Explanation:

given,                                

length of skid = 93 m          

coefficient of friction = 0.35

final velocity = 0 m/s              

initial velocity = ?                        

force here is friction  f = μ mg

F = ma                                                

now com paring                      

-μ mg = m a                      

a = - μ g                    

a = - 0.35 x 9.8              

a = -3.43 m/s²

we know,              

v² = u² + 2 a s                        

0 = u² - 2 x 3.43 x 93                

u² = 637.98                    

u = 25.26 m/s                      

u = 25 m/s (two significant figure)

The force is 2.0 N east

Explanation:

The impulse exerted by a force is defined as the product between the force itself and the time interval during which the force is applied. Mathematically, it is equal to the change in momentum experienced by the object on which the force is acting:

I=F\Delta t = \Delta p

Where

I is the impulse

F is the force

Delta t is the time interval during which the force is applied

\Delta p is the change in momentum

In this problem,

\Delta t = 3.0 s is the time interval

I=6.0 N\cdot s (east) is the impulse

Therefore, the magnitude of the force is

F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{6.0}{3.0}=2.0 N

And the direction is the same as the impulse (east).

radio waves travel at the speed of light, 3 x 10^8 m/s. the wavelength of a radio wave record is 200,000,000 hz is?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

1.5m

Explanation:

Speed of waves is given as the product of the wavelength and frequency. Sometimes when frequency is not given but the period is given, we get the frequency as the reciprocal of the period. The speed of waves is given in m/s, wavelength in m while frequency in Hz.

Speed, s= fw and making w the subject of formula,

w=\frac {s}{f}

Substituting 300, 000, 000 m/s for s and 200, 000, 000 for f then we obtain that

w=\frac {300000000}{200000000}=1.5 m
