Q 24: Newton's first law of motion states that anything that stands still will stay still unless unbalanced force is acted upon that object. Newton's second law of motion states that the velocity of an object changes when subjected to external Force. Newton's third law of motion says that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. when bumper cars crash into each other one car goes one way and the other goes the other way.
Q 25: if the bumper cars doubled their Mass the motion would be halfed but if the net force is doubled the motion will double.
Answer:
1. 3 m
2. 27 s
Explanation:
1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop. If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"
Given:
v₀ = 33 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -5.5 m/s²
Unknown: Δx
To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for. In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time. So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.
Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
Substitute and solve:
(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx
Δx = 3 m
2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m. How long did it take to accelerate?"
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 4.8 m/s²
Δx = 1800 m
Unknown: t
Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²
Substitute and solve:
1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²
t ≈ 27 s
Answer:
Net Force = 0
Explanation:
Causes objects to accelerate. Balanced Forces. Two equal forces push in opposite direction causing no change in motion causing net force = 0.
Answer:
The Ionospheric Effect
Explanation:
One of the largest errors in GPS positioning is attributable to the atmosphere. The long, relatively unhindered travel of the GPS signal through the virtual vacuum of space changes as it passes through the earth’s atmosphere. Through both refraction and diffraction, the atmosphere alters the apparent speed and, to a lesser extent, the direction of the signal. This causes an apparent delay in the signal's transit from the satellite to the receiver.
Answer:
1- For the track B. The potential energy is the same for the two cars, but because of the slope of the track, the car B earn kinetic energy faster. The gravitation acceleration of the cars will be g•sinθ, and the angle of the track B will have a bigger value for sinθ
2- The conservation of energy applies because the roller coaster is a closed track. When a car climb the track, it earn GPE, which is given by mgh, when it get down in the track, it transform GPE in KE, which is given in 1/2mv².
3-
Position of car (m) GPE KE GPE + KE
top (30m) 60000 0 60000
bottom (0m) 0 60000 60000
halfway down (15m) 30000 30000 60000
three-quarters way down 15000 45000 60000
