A car with a mass of 1,500 kg is traveling at a speed of 30 m/s. What force must be applied to stop the car in 3 seconds?

1 answer:

QveST [7]3 years ago

3 0

Explanation:

F = ma

F = m Δv / Δt

F = (1500 kg) (0 m/s − 30 m/s) / 3 s

F = -15,000 N

Where are truss bridges located?

guapka [62]

Basic truss bridge types found in North Carolina (source: HAER) A truss bridge can be characterized by the location of its traffic deck. At a pony truss, the travel surface passes along the bottom chords of trusses standing to either side that are not connected to each other at the top.

If I keep F constant in F=ma, what is the relationship between m and a?

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

If F is a constant, we can take f = 1

f = m×a

ma = 1

therefore we can say that force is hence proportinal to the product of mass and acceleration.

Two identical charges q placed 2.0 mapart exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other What is the value of the charge q? a) q

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

c) $4.2*10^{-5}C$

Explanation:

Coulomb's law says that the force exerted between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them, and is given by the expression:

$F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}$

where k is a proportionality constant with the value $k=9*10^{9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}$

In this case $q_{1}=q_{2}=q$ , so we have:

$F=\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}$

Solving the equation for q, we have:

$kq^{2}=Fr^{2}$

$q^{2}=\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}$

$q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}}$

Replacing the given values:

$q=\sqrt{\frac{4.0N*(2.0m)^{2}}{9*10^{-9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}}}$

$q=4.2*10^{-5}C$

The mass of a spacecraft is about 435 kg . An engine designed to increase the speed of the spacecraft while in outer space provi

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Δ v = 125 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of space craft = 435 Kg

thrust = 0.09 N

time = 1 week

= 7 x 24 x 60 x 60 s

change in speed of craft = ?

Assuming no external force is exerted on the space craft

now,

$T= m_s a$

$a=\dfrac{T}{m_s}$

$a =\dfrac{0.09}{435}$

a = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

using equation of motion

Δ v = a t

Δ v = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ x 7 x 24 x 60 x 60

Δ v = 125 m/s

Being able to see a square in the middle of the image despite not having lines to form a square represents the Gestalt principle

vredina [299]

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

C. closure.

Gestalt principle of closure describes how we perceive complete figures even when the information that form the figure is missing.

This is due the fact that our brain responds to the familiar patterns inspite of getting incomplete information.

For instance, in the given question, we are able to perceive an image of square in the center despite not having actual lines that form a square.

Thus, it represents principle of closure.
