The car's motion can be divided into three different stages: its motion before the driver realizes he's late, its motion after t

he driver hits the gas (but before he sees the police car), and its motion after the driver sees the police car. Which of the following simplifying assumptions is it reasonable to make in this problem? a. During each of the three different stages of its motion, the car is moving with constant acceleration. b. During each of the three different stages of its motion, the car is moving with constant velocity. c.The highway is straight (i.e., there are no curves). d. The highway is level (i.e., there are no hills or valleys).Enter all the correct answers in alphabetical order without commas. For example, if statements C and D are correct, enter CD.

Answer:

B, C, D are valid assumptions

Explanation:

In each stage the acceleration of the car varies because the velocity of car varies in each stage. At first, the acceleration of the car is moving slowly.

Then, driver realizes that he is late so the acceleration of the car increases he hits the gas.

Finally, the acceleration decreases when he sees the police car.

In the first state when driver do not know, that he is late, he will drive with a constant velocity as any one does.

When the driver hits the gas and he does not know about the police vehicle, even then he may drive with constant velocity or he may accelerate the car due to fear of being caught.

In the last part of motion when driver see the police car, even than he may accelerate the car, but acceleration will be constant throughout the motion is not possible, or even than he may continue with constant velocity.

Hence, there are only three assumptions are valid.

B. During each of the three different stages of its motion, the car is moving with constant velocity.

C . The highway is straight.

D. The highway is level.

Note that the rate of change of speed is equal to the acceleration. The acceleration is constant if change in velocity of particle is equal in equal interval of time.

If a snowboarder’s initial speed is 4 m/s and comes to rest when making it to the upper level. With a slightly greater initial s
Brrunno [24]

(a) At a corresponding hill on Earth and a lesser gravity on planet Epslion, the height of the hill will cause a reduction in the initial speed of the snowboarder from 4 m/s to a value greater than zero (0).

(b) If the initial speed at the bottom of the hill is 5 m/s, the final speed at the top of the hill be greater than 3 m/s.

<h3>Conservation of mechanical energy</h3>

The effect of height  and gravity on speed on the given planet Epislon is determined by applying the principle of conservation of mechanical energy as shown below;

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

¹/₂m(v²- u²) = mg(hi - hf)

¹/₂(v²- u²) = g(0 - hf)

v² - u² = -2ghf

v² = u² - 2ghf

where;

  • v is the final velocity at upper level
  • u is the initial velocity
  • hf is final height
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

when u² = 2gh, then v² = 0,

when gravity reduces, u² > 2gh, and v² > 0

Thus, at a corresponding hill on Earth and a lesser gravity on planet Epslion, the height of the hill will cause a reduction in the initial speed of the snowboarder from 4 m/s to a value greater than zero (0).

<h3>Final speed</h3>

v² = u² - 2ghf

where;

  • u is the initial speed = 5 m/s
  • g is acceleration due to gravity and its less than 9.8 m/s²
  • v is final speed
  • hf is equal height

Since g on Epislon is less than 9.8 m/s² of Earth;

5² - 2ghf > 3 m/s

Thus, if the initial speed at the bottom of the hill is 5 m/s, the final speed at the top of the hill be greater than 3 m/s.

In the following diagram, the voltage is 1.5 volts and the resistance is 0.35 ohms. Use Ohm's Law to determine the current in th
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

I = 4.28 [amp]

Explanation:

To solve this type of problems we must have knowledge of the law of ohm, which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of resistance by current.

Initial data:

v = 1.5 [volt]

R = 0.35 [ohms]

v = I * R

therefore:

I = 1.5 / 0.35

I = 4.28 [amp]
