Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.
Answer:
1. -8.20 m/s²
2. 73.4 m
3. 19.4 m
Explanation:
1. Apply Newton's second law to the car in the y direction.
∑F = ma
N − mg = 0
N = mg
Apply Newton's second law to the car in the x direction.
∑F = ma
-F = ma
-Nμ = ma
-mgμ = ma
a = -gμ
Given μ = 0.837:
a = -(9.8 m/s²) (0.837)
a = -8.20 m/s²
2. Given:
v₀ = 34.7 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -8.20 m/s²
Find: Δx
v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
(0 m/s)² = (34.7 m/s)² + 2 (-8.20 m/s²) Δx
Δx = 73.4 m
3. Since your braking distance is the same as the car in front of you, the minimum safe following distance is the distance you travel during your reaction time.
d = v₀t
d = (34.7 m/s) (0.56 s)
d = 19.4 m
