A car sitting at a red light begins to accelerate at 2 m/s2 when the light turns green. It continues with this acceleration unti

l it reaches a speed of 20 m/s. It then travels at this speed for another few minutes. How far does the car travel in the first 35 s after the light changes to green

Answer:

    x_total = 600 m

Explanation:

This is an exercise and kinematics, let's find the time it takes to reach the velocity  20 m / s

          v = v₀ + a t

           

as part of rest v₀ = 0

          t = v / a

          t = 20/2

          t = 10 s

let's find the distance traveled in this time

          x₁ = vo t + ½ a t2

          x₁ = 0 + ½ 2 10²

          x₁ = 100 m

The remaining time is

          t₂ = 35 - t

          t₂ = 35 - 10

          t₂ = 25 s

as in this range it has a constant speed

          v = x₂ / t₂

          x₂ = v t₂

          x₂ = 20  25

          x₂ = 500 m

the total distance traveled is

           x_total = x₁ + x₂

           x_total = 100 + 500

           x_total = 600 m

high school physics, no need detail explain, just give the answer, but you have to make sure thank you
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

approximately 30 degrees

Explanation:

If it takes the cannonball 2 seconds to reach the maximum height, we can use the analysis of the vertical component of the velocity and the fact that the acceleration of gravity is the one acting opposite to this initial vertical component (v_y) of the velocity. We know as well that at the top of the trajectory, the vertical component of the velocity is zero, and then the movement starts going down in it trajectory. So, the final velocity for the first part of the ascending movement is zero, giving us the following equation for the velocity under an accelerated movement (with acceleration of gravity "g" acting):

v_f=v_i-a\,t\\v_f=v_y-g\,t\\0=v_y-9.8\,*\,2\\v_y=9.8\,*\,2=19.6 \frac{m}{s}

By knowing the vertical component of the initial velocity (19.6 m/s), and the actual magnitude of the total initial velocity (40 m/s), we can calculate what angle was the initial velocity vector forming above the horizontal. We use for such the fact that the sine of the angle relates the opposite side of a right angle triangle with the hypotenuse, and solve for the angle using the arcsin function:

sin(\theta)=\frac{opp}{hyp} \\sin(\theta)=\frac{19.6}{40}\\\theta=arcsin(\frac{19.6}{40})\\\theta=29.34^o

which tells us that the closer answer shown is 30^o

What two factors determine the color of an object?
slamgirl [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

4. the material the object is made of and the color of light that strikes it

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The color of an object is the wavelength of light that the object reflects, which is determined by the arrangement of electrons in the atoms of the material making the object.
  • <em><u>We could therefore say that the color of object depends on or is determined by the material making up the object as this determines the the wavelengths of light the object reflects. Lastly, the color of light source also determines the color of the object.</u></em>

List 5 types of action energy and 4 types of potential energy
Taya2010 [7]
Well, kinetic energy is defined as energy in motion (or as you said, action energy). Now, in order to characterize something as kinetic energy, it needs to be in motion (e.x., movement on a rollercoaster, a ball falling, a ball rolling, a person running, or a car in motion, really, anything moving).
Potential energy is stored energy. For example, it could be the farthest point back when you pull a slingshot. Or being at the very top of a hill right before you fall back down it, or holding a ball at its highest point before you drop it. Another example, is water stored behind a dam waiting to be released. Hope this helps!
