A truck on a straight road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 20.0 m/s. Then the truck trav

els for 20.0 s at constant speed until the brakes are applied, stopping the truck in a uniform manner in an additional 5.00 s. (a) How long is the truck in motion? (b) What is the average velocity of the truck for the motion described?

<span>You can use the equation
V_xf = V_xi + a_x(t)

V_xf = 20.0m/s
V_xi = 0m/s
ax = 2.0 t

Thus, solve for t and get 10seconds and then take 5 seconds to break after 20 seconds of driving so for

a) 10 + 20 + 5 = 35 seconds

</span><span>for part b)
You can use the formula
Delta x/Delta t = average velocity
 
Need to find xf, knowing xi = 0

Thus, use the formula
 x_f = x_i + V_xi(t) + (1/2)a_x(t)^(2)
x_f = 0 + 0(10) + (1/2)(2.0)(10)^(2)
 x_f = 100m
 
so for the first 10 seconds the truck traveled 100ms At a speed of 20m/s

20m/s = xm/20s 20*20 = x
x = 400
 
thus we have 100+400 = 500m then it slows down from 500m to x_f
 
thus I use the equation
x_f = x_i + (1/2)(V_xf + V_xi)t
x_f = 500 + (1/2)(0 + 20)(5) x_f = 500 + 50
x_f = 550
 
therefore the total distance traveled is 550m
</span>
<span>to calculate average velocity
550/35 = 16m/s

thus V_xavg = 16m/s</span>

Use the following photoelectric graph to answer the following question:
klio [65]
The photoelectric effect is obtained when you shine a light on a material, resulting in the emission of electrons.

The kinetic energy of the electrons depends on the frequency of the light:
K = h(f - f₀)

where:
K = kinetic energy 
h = Planck constant
f = light frequency
f₀ = threshold frequency

Rearranging the formula in the form y = m·x + b, we get:
K = hf - hf₀
where:
K = dependent variable
f = <span>indipendent variable
h = slope
hf</span>₀ = y-intercept

Every material has its own threshold frequency, therefore, what stays constant for all the materials is h = Planck constant (see picture attached).

Hence, the correct answer is C) the slope.

A 63 gg ice cube can slide without friction up and down a 30∘30∘ slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring at the bottom o
tatiyna

Given Information:

slope angle = θ = 30°

spring constant = k = 30 N/m

compressed length = x = 10 cm = 0.10 m

mass of ice cube = m = 63 g = 0.063 kg

Required Information:

distance traveled by ice cube = d = ?  

Answer:

distance traveled by ice cube = 0.48 m

Explanation:

Using the the principle of conversation of energy, the following relation holds true for this case,

mgh = 1/2*kx²

h = 1/2*kx²/mg

Where h is the height of the slope, m is the mass of ice cube, k is the spring constant and x is the compressed length o the spring and g is gravitational acceleration.

h = 1/2*kx²/mg

h = 1/2*30(0.1)²/0.063*9.8

h = 0.242 m

From trigonometry ratio,

sinθ = h/d

d = h/sinθ

d = 0.242/sin(30)

d = 0.48 m

Therefore, when the ice cube is released, it will travel a total distance 0.48 up the slope before reversing direction.
