A thief is trying to escape from a parking garage after completing a robbery, and the thief's car is speeding (v = 13 m/s) towar

d the door of the parking garage (fig. p2.60). when the thief is l = 22 m from the door a police officer flips a switch to close the garage door. the door starts at a height of 9 m and moves downward at 0.6 m/s. if the thief's car is 1.4 m tall, will the thief escape?

<u>Answer</u>

Yes, the car reaches the door before the gate closes.

<u>Explanation</u>

The time taken by the car to reach at the door.

Time = distance / time

        = 22/13

          = 1.6923 seconds

Time taken by the door to close up to the height of the car.

Distance the door has to move to prevent the car from escaping = 9.1.4 = 7.6 m

From newton's 2nd law of motion;

s = ut + 1/2 gt²

7.6 = 0.6t + 1/2 × 10t²

7.6 = 0.6t + 5t²

50t² + 6t - 76 = 0

Solving this quadrilatic equation,

t = 28.537 seconds

Answer: Yes, the car reaches the door before the gate closes.

A bike with 15cm diameter wheels accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 7.1m/s over a distance of 35.4m. Determine the an
Finger [1]

Answer:

9.47 rad/s^2

Explanation:

Diameter = 15 cm, radius, r = diameter / 2 = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m, u = 0, v = 7.1 m/s,

s = 35.4 m

let a be the linear acceleration.

Use III equation of motion.

v^2 = u^2 + 2 a s

7.1 x 7.1 = 0 + 2 x a x 35.4

a = 0.71 m/s^2

Now the relation between linear acceleration and angular acceleration is

a = r x α

where,  α is angular acceleration

α = 0.71 / 0.075 = 9.47 rad/s^2

An igneous rock becomes buried, is subject to high heat and pressure, and recrystallizes. This rock then is eroded, transported,
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

When an igneous rock becomes buried, is subjected to high heat and pressure, and recrystallizes it is formed into  Metamorphic rock. Now this rock is eroded, transported, deposited and subsequently lithified to be converted into Sedimentary rock.

The same igneous rock is first converted into Metamorphic and then into sedimentary by the process of weathering.

Why does increasing the number of trials increase confidence in the results of the experiment?
Paladinen [302]
It increases confidence because the more times you conduct the same experiment over and over should either prove your hypothesis right and wrong and eliminate any random occurrences that might affect your results.

4. Una cuerda de acero de piano mide 1.60 m de longitud y 0.20 cm de diámetro. ¿Cuál es la tensión en la cuerda si se estira 0.2
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1030.83\ \text{N}

Explanation:

\Delta L = Cambio en la longitud de la cuerda = 0.25 cm

T = tensión en cuerda

A = Área de la cadena = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

d = Diámetro de la cuerda = 0.2 cm

L = Longitud original de la cuerda = 1.6 m

El cambio de longitud de una cuerda viene dado por

\Delta L=\dfrac{TL}{AE}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{\Delta LAE}{L}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{0.25\times 10^{-2}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.2\times 10^{-2})^2\times 210\times 10^9}{1.6}\\\Rightarrow T=1030.84\ \text{N}

La tensión en la cuerda es 1030.84\ \text{N}.
