A race car is one lap behind the lead race car when the lead car has 55 laps to go in a race. If the speed of the lead car is 62

.3 m/s, what must be the average speed of the second car to catch the lead car just before the end of the race (i.e., right at the finish line)

Answer:

The second car must go with a speed of 63.43 m/sec

Explanation:

Speed V of lead car = 62.3 m/sec

Distance S =   55 laps = 55 ×400 meters=22000 m

We know

S = V × t

So,

t= S/V

We put values of S and V here, we get

t=22000/62.3

t= 353.1 sec

So in 353.1 sec the second car which is one lap behind - must go a distance of 55+1=56 laps or 56×400 m = 22400 meters to catch the lead car before it finishes.

i-e for second car

Distance S= 22400m

Time t = 353.1 sec

V= ?

using again

S=Vt

we get

V= S/t

V= 22400/353.1= 63.43 m/sec

2 m3 of an ideal gas are compressed from 100 kPa to 200 kPa. As a result of the process, the internal energy of the gas increase
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

work done is -150 kJ

Explanation:

given data

volume v1 = 2 m³

pressure p1 = 100 kPa

pressure p2 = 200 kPa

internal energy = 10 kJ

heat is transferred  = 150 kJ

solution

we know from 1st law of thermodynamic is

Q = du +W    ............1

put here value and we get

-140 = 10 + W

W = -150 kJ

as here work done is -ve so we can say work is being done on system

Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1150 kg and was approaching at
devlian [24]
Force acting during collision is internal so momentum is conserve so (initial momentum = final momentum) in both directions Two cars collide at an icy intersection and stick together afterward. The first car has a mass of 1150 kg and was approaching at 5.00 m/s due south. The second car has a mass of 750 kg and was approaching at 25.0 m/s due west. Let Vx is and Vy are final velocities of car in +x and +y direction respectively. initial momentum in +ve x (east) direction = final momentum in +ve x direction (east)

- 750*25 + 1150*0 = (750+1150)
Vx initial momentum in +ve y (north) direction = final momentum in +ve y direction (north)

750*0 - 1150*5 = (750+1150)
Vy from here you can calculate Vx and Vy so final velocity V is


<span>V=<span>(√</span><span>V2x</span>+<span>V2y</span>) 
</span>
and angle make from +ve x axis is

<span>θ=<span>tan<span>−1</span></span>(<span><span>Vy</span><span>Vx</span></span>)

</span><span> kinetic energy loss in the collision = final KE - initial KE</span>

What is the displacement of the car between t=1s and t=4s
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Option C. 30 m

Explanation:

From the graph given in the question above,

At t = 1 s,

The displacement of the car is 10 m

At t = 4 s

The displacement of the car is 40 m

Thus, we can simply calculate the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 by calculating the difference in the displacement at the various time. This is illustrated below:

Displacement at t = 1 s (d1) = 10 m

Displacement at t= 4 s (d2) = 40

Displacement between t = 1 and t = 4 (ΔD) =?

ΔD = d2 – d1

ΔD = 40 – 10

ΔD = 30 m.

Therefore, the displacement of the car between t = 1 and t = 4 is 30 m.
