A trooper is moving due south along the freeway at a speed of 30.1 m/s when a red car passes the trooper. The red car moves with

constant velocity of 45.4 m/s southward. At the instant the trooper's car is passed, the trooper begins to speed up at a constant rate of 2.0 m/s2. What is the maximum distance ahead of the trooper that is reached by the red car

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "41.87 m".

Explanation:

The given values are:

The speed of trooper = 30.1 \ m/s

The velocity of red car = 45.4 \ m/s

Now,

A red car goes as far as possible until the speed or velocity of the troops is the same as that of of the red car at

t=\frac{45-30}{2.7}                                                              (∵ time=\frac{distance}{time})

t=5.56 \ sec

then,

The distance covered by trooper,

t1=30\times 5.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 2.7\times (5.56)^2

   =208.33 \ m

The distance covered by red car,

= 45\times 5.56

= 250.2 \ m

Maximum distance = 250.2-208.33

                                = 41.87 \ m

As the sun sets on horizon, its rays are____ by the ocean water
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Reflected

Explanation:

I do not have much context here, but reflection is what happens when the sun sets on the water. The rays hit the surface of the water and bounce off, known as refelction.

Assume that the blocks are accelerating, and the x components of their accelerations at a certain moment are a1x and a2x. find t
Serga [27]

we know that center of mass is given as

r = (m₁ r_{1x} + m₂ r_{2x})/(m₁ + m₂)

taking derivative both side relative to "t"

dr/dt = (m₁ dr_{1x}/dt + m₂ dr_{2x}/dt)/(m₁ + m₂)

v = (m₁ v_{1x} + m₂ v_{2x})/(m₁ + m₂)

taking derivative again relative to "t" both side

dv/dt = (m₁ dv_{1x}/dt + m₂ dv_{2x}/dt)/(m₁ + m₂)

a= (m₁ a_{1x} + m₂ a_{2x})/(m₁ + m₂)

21) A youngster having a mass of 50.0 kg steps off a 1.00 m high platform. If she keeps her legs fairly rigid and comes to rest
zlopas [31]

Answer:

-22,150 N

Explanation:

When the youngster jumps off the platform, during the fall her initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, according to the law of conservation of energy. Therefore, we can write:

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where the term on the left is the potential energy while the term on the right is the kinetic energy, and where

m = 50.0 kg is the mass of the youngster

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 1.00 m is the heigth of the platform

u is the speed of the youngster as she reaches the floor

Solving for u,

u=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(1.00)}=4.43 m/s

Then, when the youngster hits the floor, the force exerted on her during the deceleration is given by:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

where \Delta p is her change in momentum, and where

m is the mass

v = 0 is the final velocity (she comes to a stop)

u = 4.43 m/s is the initial velocity

\Delta t=10.0 ms =0.010 s is the duration of the collision

Substituting,

F=\frac{(50.0)(0-4.43)}{0.010}=-22150 N

And the negative sign means the direction of the force is opposite to the motion (so, upward).

What is resistivity?​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Resistivity, electrical resistance of a conductor of unit cross-sectional area and unit length.

Explanation:

A characteristic property of each material, resistivity is useful in comparing various materials on the basis of their ability to conduct electric currents. High resistivity designates poor conductors.
