As the shuttle bus comes to a sudden stop to avoid hitting a dog, it accelerates uniformly at -4.1 m/s2 as it slows from 9.0 m/s

to 0.0 m/s. Find the time interval of acceleration for the bus.

Answer:

The time interval of acceleration for the bus is 2.20 seconds

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

→ a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where a is the acceleration, v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity

and t is the time

The given is:

The uniform acceleration = -4.1 m/s²

The bus slows from 9 m/s to 0 m/s

We need to find the time interval of acceleration for the bus

Lets use the rule above

→ a = -4.1 m/s² , v = 0 m/s , u = 9 m/s

→ -4.1=\frac{0-9}{t}

Multiply both sides by t

→ -4.1 t = -9

Divide both sides by -4.1

∴ t = 2.20 seconds

<em>The time interval of acceleration for the bus is 2.20 seconds</em>

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Reyleigh's criteria. Here the resolution of the eye is defined as 1.22 times the wavelength over the diameter of the eye. Mathematically this is,

\theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{D}

Here,

D is diameter of the eye

D = \frac{1.22 (539nm)}{5.11 mm}

D= 1.287*10^{-4}m

The angle that relates the distance between the lights and the distance to the lamp is given by,

Sin\theta = \frac{d}{L}

For small angle, sin\theta = \theta

sin \theta = \frac{d}{L}

Here,

d = Distance between lights

L = Distance from eye to lamp

For small angle sin \theta = \theta

Therefore,

L = \frac{d}{sin\theta}

L = \frac{0.691m}{1.287*10^{-4}}

L = 5367m

Therefore the distance is 5.367km.

How much equal charge should be placed on the earth and the moon so that the electrical repulsion balances the gravitational for
kumpel [21]

As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we know that electrostatic repulsion force is balanced by the gravitational force between them

so here force of attraction due to gravitation is given as

F_g = 1.98 \times 10^{20} N

here we can assume that both will have equal charge of magnitude "q"

now we have

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{kq^2}{r^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(q^2)}{(3.84 \times 10^8)^2}

1.98 \times 10^{20} = (6.10 \times 10^{-8}) q^2

now we have

q = 5.7 \times 10^{13} C
