A race car accelerates from 0.00m/s to 40.0m/s with a displacement of 50.0m. What was the cars

7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion v² = u²+2as

v is the final velocity = 40m/s

u is the iniyail velocity 0m/s

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

Substituting in the formula;

40² = 0²+2a(50)

1600 = 100a

Divide both sides by 100

100a/100 = 1600/100

a = 16

Hence the car acceleration is 16m/s²

What is the operating life time of a PV Module?

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The industry standard life span is about 25 to 30 years, and that means that some panels installed at the early end of the current boom aren't long from being retired is the operating life time of a PV module .

Consider two sizes of disk, both of mass M. One size of disk has radius R; the other has radius 4R. System A consists of two of

Harman [31]

Answer:

4 smaller disks

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of smaller and larger disks = M

Radius of smaller disk = R

Radius of larger disk = 4R

Formula for moment of inertia about cylinder axis is:

I = ½MR²

Thus;

For small disk, I_small = ½MR²

For large disk, I_large = ½M(2R)² = 2MR²

We are told that moment of inertia of System A consists of two of the larger disks. Thus;

I_A = 2 × I_large = 2 × 2MR²

I_A = 4MR²

We are also told that System B consists of one of the larger disks and a number of the smaller disks. Thus;

I_B = I_large + n(I_small)

Where n is the number of smaller disks.

I_B = 2MR² + n(½MR²)

I_B = MR²(2 + n/2)

We are told that the moment of inertia for system A equals the moment of inertia for system B. Thus;

I_A = I_B

So;

4MR² = MR²(2 + n/2)

MR² will cancel out to give;

4 = 2 + n/2

Multiply through by 2 to give;

8 = 4 + n

n = 8 - 4

n = 4

A 45.0-kg girl is standing on a 168-kg plank. The plank, originally at rest, is free to slide on a frozen lake, which is a flat,

muminat

Answer:

The speed of the plank relative to the ice is:

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

Explanation:

Here we can use momentum conservation. Do not forget it is relative to the ice.

$m_{g}v_{g}+m_{p}v_{p}=0$ (1)

Where:

m(g) is the mass of the girl
m(p) is the mass of the plank
v(g) is the speed of the girl
v(p) is the speed of the plank

Now, as we have relative velocities, we have:

$v_{g/b}=v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55 \: m/s$ (2)

v(g/b) is the speed of the girl relative to the plank

Solving the system of equations (1) and (2)

$45v_{g}+168v_{p}=0$

$v_{g}-v_{p}=1.55$

$v_{p}=-0.33\: m/s$

I hope it helps you!

The average distance from the sun to Pluto is approximately 6.10 × 109 km. How long does it take light from

Scorpion4ik [409]

$V= \frac{S}{t}$
$t= \frac{S}{V}$ <u />
$t= \frac{S}{c}$
$t= \frac{6.1*10^{12}}{299792458}$
$t=20347.4098071s$

It takes 20347.4098071s for light from the sun to reach Pluto.
The 6.1*10^9 is replaced by 6.1*10^12 on line 4 because we convert the distance from km to m.
c = speed of light. If a different value was given in the previous question then use that instead of the value I used to do the final calculation.

Match each property with the benefit it provides to people on Earth. A. magnetic field filters cancer-causing rays from the sun

vodomira [7]

The correct matching are the following:

A. magnetic field: prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface

B. ozone: filters cancer-causing rays from the sun

C. carbon dioxide: retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere

D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams: moderates changes in temperature on the surface

The electromagnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar wind by deflecting it. Without it, the charged particles would strip away our ozone, which will lead to the end of life on Earth.

The ozone is a layer in the stratosphere that filters the suns rays. It filters the UV rays by absorbing it. This prevents the UV rays from damaging the surface of the Earth.

Carbon dioxide retains heat in the atmosphere, which creates a greenhouse effect. It is beneficial for us, but because human activity like industrial activities emit so much carbon in the atmosphere that it ends up being harmful.

Bodies of water found on Earth regulate the temperature of the Earth through ocean currents. It brings in both cold and warm air to land which also affect precipitation.

Long explanation, I know, but maybe this will help you out in the long run. Good Luck!
