Assume that the stopping distance of a van varies directly with the square of the speed. A van traveling 40 miles per hour can s

top in 70 feet. If the van is traveling 48 miles per​ hour, what is its stopping​ distance?

Answer:

d = 100.8 ft

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the van is 40 miles then the stopping distance is given as 70 feet

here we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad

so here we have

0^2 - 40^2 = 2 a (70 feet)

now again if the speed is increased to 48 mph then let say the stopping distance is "d"

so we will have

0^2 - 48^2 = 2 a (d)

now divide the above two equations

\frac{40^2}{48^2} = \frac{70 feet}{d}

d = 100.8 ft

A spherical balloon has a radius of 6.95m and is filled with helium. The density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3, and the density of ai
klio [65]

Answer:

602.27 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the largest mass of cargo the balloon can lift is shown below:-

Volume of helium inside the ballon= (4 ÷ 3) × π × r^3

= (4 ÷ 3) × 3.14 × 6.953

= 1406.19 m3

Mass the balloon can carry = volume × (density of air-density of helium)

= 1406.19 × (1.29-0.179)

= 1562.27 kg

Mass of cargo it can carry = Mass it can carry - Mass of structure

= 1562.27 - 960

= 602.27 kg

When energy is transferred to air, what happens to the particles of air? (1 point) They move slower. They move faster. They cool
zubka84 [21]
This question is a critical question. as we all know, when energy is added to any state of water, the particles move faster. and when energy is taken away from any state of water, the particles reduce speed. same with the particles of air. when energy is added; they move faster. when energy is removed; they move slower. so the answer is they move faster

You create a ramp using two text books and a 0.50m board. Using a timer you determine that a cart can roll down the ramp in 0.55
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the cart at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s, and the acceleration would be 3.30m/s^2.

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity to be zero, we can obtain the velocity at the bottom of the ramp using the kinematics equations:

v=v_0+at\\\\v^2=v_0^2+2ad

Dividing the second equation by the first one, we obtain:

v=\frac{v_0^2+2ad}{v_0+at}

And, since v_0=0, then:

v=\frac{2ad}{at}\\\\v=\frac{2d}{t}\\\\v=\frac{2(0.50m)}{0.55s}\\\\v=1.81m/s

It means that the velocity at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s.

We could use this data, plus any of the two initial equations, to determine the acceleration:

v=v_0+at\\\\\implies a=\frac{v}{t}\\\\a=\frac{1.81m/s}{0.55s}\\\\a=3.30m/s^2

So the acceleration is 3.30m/s^2.

Which of the following statements is false?
vladimir1956 [14]

An excited atom can return to its ground state by absorbing electromagnetic radiation is false about the electromagnetic radiation.

Option B

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the scope of modern quantum theory, the term Electromagnetic radiation is identified as the movement of photons through space. Almost all the sources of energy that we utilize today such as coal, oil, etc are a product of electromagnetic radiation which was absorbed from the sun millions of years ago.

Various properties of electromagnetic radiations are a directly proportional relationship between the energy and the frequency, Inverse proportionality between frequency and the wavelength, etc. Hence, we can conclude that an "excited atom" can never return to its ground state by assimilating electromagnetic radiation and the 2nd statement is false.
