Answer:
A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Final velocity (V) = 0
Time (t) =?
Initial velocity (U) =?
A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.
Let us obtain an express for time (t)
Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)
a = V/t
Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)
V = s/t
a = s/t^2
Cross multiply
a x t^2 = s
Divide both side by a
t^2 = s/a
Take the square root of both side
t = √(s/a)
Now we can obtain the time as follow
Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2
Distance (s) = 256ft
Time (t) =..?
t = √(s/a)
t = √(256/26)
t = 3.14 secs
Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs
B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.
V = U + at
Final velocity (V) = 0
Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2
Time (t) = 3.14 sec
Initial velocity (U) =.?
0 = U – 26x3.14
0 = U – 81.64
Collect like terms
U = 81.64 ft/s
Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s
Answer:

Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Potential difference 
New Capacitor 
Generally the equation for Capacitor capacitance is mathematically given by

Generally the equation for New p.d' is mathematically given by




Gravity on the surface = 4 m/s^2
Now, the acceleration due to centripetal motion, a = v^2/R
Where,
v= 10^3 m/s, R = 10^6 m
Then,
a = (10^3)^2/(10^6) = 1 m^2/s
The net gravitational acceleration = 4-1 = 3 m/s^2
The reading on the spring scale = ma = 40*3 = 120 N
