Answer:

Driving a motor vehicle often requires LESS or STANDARD reaction time.

Explanation:

While driving on road it requires less or standard reaction time because while driving the motor vehicle on road the situation to make instant decision may occur at any time. While driving on road there may happen that the person driving in front of you may apply brakes instantly.

Due to this you have to instantly react for that situation and apply brakes in your car also.

If our reaction time is not standard or less then in that case the our car will travel closer to the car front of us and then if we even apply hard push on the brakes then also the car will not stop and it will skid towards the another car and it may occur collision with it.

So it always requires less or standard reaction time

You hear a sound with a frequency of 256 Hz. The amplitude of the sound increases and decreases periodically: it takes 2 seconds

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency and period, and how they are related to each other.

The relationship that defines both agreements is given by the equation,

$f_{beat}=\frac{1}{T}$

Then the frequency for the previous period given (2sec) is

$f_{beat}=\frac{1}{2}$

$f_{beat} = 0.5Hz$

The beat frequency of two frequencies is equal to the difference between the two frequencies, then

$f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|\\f_{beat} = |256Hz-2Hz|\\f_{beat} = 254Hz$

Hence option A is incorrect.

We can do this process for 254Hz as $f_1$ and 258 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|254Hz-258Hz|$

$f_{beat} = 4Hz$

Hence option B is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255Hz as $f_1$ and 257 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|255Hz-257Hz|$

$f_{beat} = 2Hz$

Hence option C is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255.5Hz as f_1 and 256.5 Hz for f_2, then

$f_{beat} =|255.5Hz-256.5Hz|\\f_{beat} = 1Hz$

Hence option D is incorrect.

We can also do this process for 255.75Hz as $f_1$ and 256.25 Hz for $f_2$ , then

$f_{beat} =|255.75Hz-256.25Hz|\\f_{beat} = 0.5Hz$

Hence option E is incorrect.

Therefore the sum of the frequencies in the sound wave would be 256.25Hz and 255.75Hz

A steel ball of mass 0.500 kg is fastened to a cord that is 70.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released whe

Liula [17]

Answer:

a) v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s (→)

b) v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s (→)

Explanation:

a) Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

L = 70 cm = 0.7 m

v₁in = 0 m/s ⇒ Kin = 0 J

v₁fin = ?

hin = L = 0.7 m

hfin = 0 m ⇒ Ufin = 0 J

The speed of the ball before the collision can be obtained as follows

Einitial = Efinal

⇒ Kin + Uin = Kfin + Ufin

⇒ 0 + m*g*hin = 0.5*m*v₁fin² + 0

⇒ v₁fin = √(2*g*hin) = √(2*(9.81 m/s²)*(0.70 m))

⇒ v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s (→)

b) Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

m₂ = 3.0 Kg

v₁ = 3.7059 m/s (→)

v₂ = 0 m/s

v₂fin = ?

The speed of the block just after the collision can be obtained using the equation

v₂fin = 2*m₁*v₁ / (m₁ + m₂)

⇒ v₂fin = (2*0.5 Kg*3.7059 m/s) / (0.5 Kg + 3.0 Kg)

⇒ v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s (→)

A 975-kg sports car (including driver) crosses the rounded top of a hill at determine (a) the normal force exerted by the road o

iVinArrow [24]

There are missing data in the text of the problem (found them on internet):
- speed of the car at the top of the hill: $v=15 m/s$
- radius of the hill: $r=100 m$

Solution:

(a) The car is moving by circular motion. There are two forces acting on the car: the weight of the car $W=mg$ (downwards) and the normal force N exerted by the road (upwards). The resultant of these two forces is equal to the centripetal force, $m \frac{v^2}{r}$ , so we can write:
$mg-N=m \frac{v^2}{r}$ (1)
By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find N:
$N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(975 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(975 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=7371 N$

(b) The problem is exactly identical to step (a), but this time we have to use the mass of the driver instead of the mass of the car. Therefore, we find:
$N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(62 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=469 N$

(c) To find the car speed at which the normal force is zero, we can just require N=0 in eq.(1). and the equation becomes:
$mg=m \frac{v^2}{r}$
from which we find
$v= \sqrt{gr}= \sqrt{(9.81 m/s^2)(100 m)}=31.3 m/s$
