Two cars are facing each other from opposite ends of a 500m long road. Car A begins travelling at a constant speed of 20m/s. At

the same moment, Car B begins travelling toward Car A at a constant speed of 16m/s. How far will Car A move before colliding with Car B?

Answer:

Correct answer:  D₁ = 277.78 m  

Explanation:

Before colliding  with car B, car A will cross the next distance:

D₁ = V₁ t  

Before colliding  with car A, car B will cross the next distance:

D₂ = V₂ t

The total distance is:

D = D₁ + D₂  => D = V₁ t + V₂ t  => D = t (V₁ + V₂) => t = D / (V₁ + V₂)

t = 500 / (20 + 16) = 500 / 36 = 13.89 seconds

D₁ =  V₁ t  = 20 · 13.89 = 277.78 m

D₁ =  277.78 m

Tamsen is interested in history, and read that because of its regular period, the pendulum constituted the basis of the most acc
geniusboy [140]

We will apply the concept of period in a pendulum, defined as the product between 2\pi by the square root of the length over gravity, this is mathematically

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Here,

T = Period

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

For the period to be 1 second, then we must look for the necessary length for such a requirement so

1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8}}

(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2 = \frac{L}{9.8}

L = 9.8(\frac{1}{2\pi})^2

L = 0.2482m

The meter's length would be slight less than one-fourth of its current length. Also, the number of significant digits depends only on how precisely we know g, because the time has been defined to be exactly 1s.

Therefore the correct answer is C.
