You are driving to the grocery store at 18 m/s. You are 120 m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that

your reaction time is 0.50 s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration.
What magnitude braking acceleration will bring you to a stop exactly at the intersection?

Answer:

11.64225 m

Explanation:A = 45 m/s – 15m/s / 6s  

A = 5m/s^2

Two drums of the same size and same height are taken.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

i) The pressure acting on the base of <em>B</em> will be half the pressure acting on the base of <em>A</em>

ii) The pressure acting on the base of <em>B</em> will be the same as the pressure acting on the base of <em>A</em>

iii) The pressure on the base of drum <em>A</em> will be slightly less than the pressure on the base of drum <em>B</em>

Explanation:

The pressure acting on the base of the drum, P = h·ρ·g

Where;

h = The level of the liquid in the drum

h_{max} = The height of the drums

ρ = The density of the liquid in the drum

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

i) If <em>A</em> is completely filled, we have h_A = h_{max}

Therefore, P_A = h_{max}×\rho_{liquid}×g

If <em>B</em> is half filled, we have, h_B =  (1/2)·h_{max}

P_B = (1/2) × h_{max}×\rho_{liquid}×g

Therefore, P_B = (1/2) × P_A

The pressure acting on the base of <em>B</em> will be half the pressure acting on the base of <em>A</em>

ii) If both <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> are each filled with water (the same liquid), then the pressure on their bases will be P_A = h_{max}×\rho_{water}×g = P_B, the same, given that the acceleration due to gravity, <em>g</em>, is constant and the same in Nepal and India

iii) If <em>A</em> is filled with water, and <em>B</em> is filled with salty water, we have that, the density of salty water is slightly higher than water, therefore, we get;

P_A = h_{max}×\rho_{water}×g <  P_B =

The pressure on the base of drum <em>A</em> will be less than the pressure on the base of drum <em>B.</em>

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!! What happens at the condensation point?A. Molecules of a liquid heat up and begin to convert to a gaseous
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D. Molecules of a gas slow down and change to a liquid state.

Explanation:

  • Condensation refers to a process by which a gas changes from gaseous state to liquid state. For example, water vapor changes to from the state of being a gas to liquid state water.
  • Condensation is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when gaseous particles slow down and change into liquid state.
  • Heat energy is lost during condensation and gaseous molecules lose kinetic energy making them to slow down and thus changing to liquid state,
