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.

Strong forces
sdas [7]

Strong forces:

- are forces holding nucleons together

- are independent of electric charge

- act only over a very short distance

So, correct answer is 4) all of these

Explanation:

The strong force is one of the 4 fundamental forces of nature. It is responsible for holding the nucleons (protons and neutrons) together into the nucleus of the atom.

In fact, the protons inside the nucleus of an atom experience a repulsive, electrostatic force between each other: if this force was not balanced, the protons will simply fly away from each other, and the nucleus would break apart, so no nucleus could exist.

The strong force acts to prevent this effect: the strong force is attractive at such short scales, and it holds the protons and the neutrons together. It is independent of the electric charge: in fact, it acts in the same way on protons and neutrons, being attractive in both cases. Also, the strong force acts only over very short distances, so it acts only inside the nucleus of an atom.

Therefore, all the statements are correct, so the correct option is

4) all of these
