Answer:

a) 17.49 seconds

b) 13.12 seconds

c) 2.99 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Acceleration = a = 1.35 m/s²

Final velocity = v = 85 km/h = 85\frac{1000}{3600}=23.61\ m/s

Initial velocity = u = 0

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 23.61=0+1.35t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.35}=17.49\ s

Time taken to accelerate to top speed is 17.49 seconds.

b) Acceleration = a = -1.8 m/s²

Initial velocity = u = 23.61\ m/s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61-1.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{23.61}{1.8}=13.12\ s

Time taken to stop the train from top speed is 13.12 seconds

c) Initial velocity = u = 23.61 m/s

Time taken = t = 7.9 s

Final velocity = v = 0

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=23.61+a7.9\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{-23.61}{7.9}=-2.99\ m/s^2

Emergency acceleration is 2.99 m/s² (magnitude)

If the toy car weighs 250g and has a kinetic energy of 2.0 J, what is its velocity
sergejj [24]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (J) = 2j

mass= 250g

velocity=?

1kg=1000g

mass= 250/1000

mass=0.25kg

Kinetic energy (J) = ½ x mass (kg) x [velocity]² (m/s)

2=1/2 × 0.25× [velocity]²

2=0.125× [velocity]²

[velocity]² = 2/0.125

[velocity]²=16

velocity= (16)^1/2

velocity= 4 m/s

A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp. If the ramp angle is 17.0° and its length is find the speed of the block as it
SashulF [63]

Answer:

2.4\sqrt{L} where L is the length of the ramp

Explanation:

Let L (m) be the length of the ramp, and g = 9.81 m/s2 be the gravitational acceleration acting downward. This g vector can be split into 2 components: parallel and perpendicular to the ramp.

The parallel component would have a magnitude of

gsin\theta = 9.81 sin17^o = 2.87 m/s^2

We can use the following equation of motion to find out the final velocity of the book after sliding L m:

v^2 - v_0^2 = 2a\Delta s

where v m/s is the final velocity, v_0 = 0m/s is the initial velocity when it starts from rest, a = 2.87 m/s2 is the acceleration, and \Delta s = L is the distance traveled:

v^2 - 0 = 2*2.87*L

v = \sqrt{5.74L} = 2.4\sqrt{L}

How do scientific tests help determine the properties of substance?
Maurinko [17]

There are various properties which are exhibited by substances like physical properties,chemical properties,magnetic properties,electric properties etc.

By simply observing the substance we can not get any idea about the property of a substance.One has to conduct various tests in order to reach at his or her conclusion. The scientific tests provides a better understanding about the nature of substance and the changes that happen under various conditions and parameter.

Which actions are evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred? Select five options. a change in color the formation of a prec
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A change in color

The formation of a precipitate

A clear liquid becoming cloudy

The formation of bubbles

The formation of smoke

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as the conversion of reactant into product. The process in which one or more than one substance is converted into one or many different substances.

There are some indications which can provide the evidence that chemical reaction has occurred.

A change in color of the substance, formation or smoke or bubbles. The formation of the precipitate and in case the substance becomes cloudy.

All these evidences show that chemical reaction has occurred.
