Answer:

64.85 m

Explanation:

a)

μ = Coefficient of friction between road and tire on rainy day = 0.107

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

a = acceleration experienced by car due to friction = - μg = - (0.107) (9.8) = - 1.05 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 42 km/h = 11.67 m/s

v = final speed of the car = 0 m/s

d = minimum distance traveled before stopping

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

0² = 11.67² + 2 (- 1.05) d

d = 64.85 m

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer

How about a thunder storm. I don't know if you live in a city or out in the sticks as I do. Lighting is very obvious and it is not a good idea to be out when experiencing a thunderstorm, especially in an open field. You might be the only thing around that will cause the lightning to be connected to the ground.#  Seconds later, you will hear the thunder which is quite harmless. If you live in the city, observing this is not quite so easy. There are all kinds of buildings around and some of them may block your view.

#The great golfer, Lee Travino, was "hit" by lightening storm twice while playing in tournaments.

Why does it take several minutes for the smell of a freshly cut lemon to be detectable on the opposite side of the kitchen?
riadik2000 [5.3K]
When the lemon is cut, it releases gaseous molecules into the surrounding air which are responsible for the lemon's smell. These molecules move slowly at room temperature and the distance that they must cover, in relevance to their size, is immense. These reasons contribute to the fact that the smell takes a while to reach the other side of the room.

A baseball pitcher throws the ball in a motion where there is rotation of the forearm about the elbow joint as well as other mov
Inessa [10]

Answer:

K = ½ kg m2 / s2

Explanation:

The kinetic energy rotation is given by the expression

    K = ½ I w²

Where I is the moment of inertia and w is the angular velocity.

We have a relationship between linear and angular velocity

    v = w r  

Where r  the distance from the point of rotation, in this case it is the point or where the ball is, so the linear velocity is the same as the ball.

      w = v / r

We replace

      K = ½ I (v / r)²

Let's calculate

      K = ½ kg m2 )(m/s )/ m) 2

      K = ½ kg m2 / s2

Q C Ganymede is the largest of Jupiter's moons. Consider a rocket on the surface of Ganymede, at the point farthest from the pla
guapka [62]

The answer is $v=15.6 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{s}$.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
  • A particle or an item that is in motion has a sort of energy called kinetic energy. An item accumulates kinetic energy when work, which involves the transfer of energy, is done on it by exerting a net force.
  • Kinetic energy comes in five forms: radiant, thermal, acoustic, electrical, and mechanical.
  • The energy of a body in motion, or kinetic energy (KE), is essentially the energy of all moving objects. Along with potential energy, which is the stored energy present in objects at rest, it is one of the two primary types of energy.
  • Explain that a moving object's mass and speed are two factors that impact the amount of kinetic energy it will possess.

Determine the escape speed for the rocket from the planet-satellite system:

The potential energy of the rocket due to Ganymede when it is on the surface of the Ganymede is,

$$U_1=-\frac{G M_{\mathrm{G}} m}{R_G}$$

The potential energy of the rocket due to Jupiter

when it is on the surface of the Ganymede is,

$$U_2=-\frac{G M_{\mathrm{J}} m}{R}$$

Here, R is a separation between Jupiter and Ganymede.

To escape from the surface of Ganymede potential energy of the rocket due to Jupiter and Ganymede is equal to the kinetic energy of the rocket.

$$\begin{aligned}&\frac{1}{2} m v^2+U_1+U_2=0 \\&\frac{1}{2} m v^2=-U_1-U_2 \\&\frac{1}{2} m v^2=\frac{G M_{\mathrm{G}} m}{R_G}+\frac{G M_{\mathrm{J}} m}{R} \\&\frac{1}{2} v^2=\frac{G M_{\mathrm{G}}}{R_G}+\frac{G M_{\mathrm{J}}}{R}\end{aligned}$$

$v^2=\frac{2 G M_{\mathrm{G}}}{R_G}+\frac{2 G M_{\mathrm{T}}}{R}$

$v=\sqrt{2 G\left(\frac{M_{\mathrm{G}}}{R_G}+\frac{M}{R}\right)}$

$v=\sqrt{2\left(6.67 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m}^2 / \mathrm{kg}^2\right)\left(\frac{1.495 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{~kg}}{2.64 \times 10^6 \mathrm{~m}}+\frac{1.90 \times 10^{27} \mathrm{~kg}}{1.071 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~m}}\right)}$

$v=15.6 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$

$v=15.6 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{s}$
