If the coefficient of kinetic friction between tires and dry pavement is 0.84, what is the shortest distance in which you can st
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

Explanation:

Given;

coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.84

speed of the automobile, u = 29.0 m/s

To determine the  the shortest distance in which you can stop an automobile by locking the brakes, we apply the following equation;

v² = u² + 2ax

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

x is the shortest distance

First we determine a;

From Newton's second law of motion

∑F = ma

F is the kinetic friction that opposes the motion of the car

-Fk = ma

but, -Fk = -μN

-μN = ma

-μmg = ma

-μg = a

- 0.8 x 9.8 = a

-7.84 m/s² = a

Now, substitute in the value of a in the equation above

v² = u² + 2ax

when the automobile stops, the final velocity, v = 0

0 = 29² + 2(-7.84)x

0 = 841 - 15.68x

15.68x = 841

x = 841 / 15.68

x = 53.64 m

Thus, the shortest distance in which you can stop the automobile by locking the brakes is 53.64 m

The zone of earthquakes and volcanoes surrounding the pacific ocean is called
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The Ring of Fire

Explanation:

The ring of fire is also called the Circum-Pacific Belt, it is a path along the pacific ocean consisting of active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes.

It has a length of approximately 40,000 kilometers. It lies on the edge of tectonic plates where the in-earth vibrations and geothermal energies are prone to erupt out.

Ring of fire inhibits about 75% o the earth's volcanoes and 95% of earthquakes occur in this region.

Dona rolls a marble with a speed of 5.0/m/s across a level table that is 1.6m above the floor. Upon reaching the edge of the tab
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

2.9 m

Explanation:

First find the time it takes to reach the floor.

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

(0 m) = (1.6 m) + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.571 s

Next, find the distance it travels in that time.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = (0 m) + (5.0 m/s) (0.571 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.571 s)²

x = 2.86 m

Rounded to two significant figures, the marble travels 2.9 meters in the x direction.

Your friend just challenged you to a race through an obstacle course. You know in order to beat him, you must run 30 meters with
seropon [69]

Answer:

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South (A)

Explanation:

You need to determine the average rate of velocity.  

The equation you will use is velocity = displacement/time

The displacement is 30m South.

The time is 60 seconds.

Plug into the equation  Velocity = 30m South/60 s

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South
