This question is typical on some driver license exams: A car moving at 43 km/h skids 17 m with locked brakes. How far will the c

ar skid with locked brakes at 129 km/h? Assume that energy loss is due only to sliding friction.
Answer in units of m.

The new stopping distance is 152.6 m

Explanation:

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the following SUVAT equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where in the initial situation, we have:

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

u = 43 km/h = 11.9 m/s is the initial velocity

s = 17 m is the stopping distance

a is the acceleration

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-(11.9)^2}{2(17)}=-4.2 m/s^2

The acceleration depends only on the sliding friction: this means that it is constant also in the second situation, where we have

u = 129 km/h = 35.8 m/s

So we can use the same equation again to find s, the new stopping distance:

s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{0-(35.8)^2}{2(-4.2)}=152.6 m

Define Nuclear Physics ?​
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Definition. Nuclear physics is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. Example nuclear reactions include radioactive decay, fission, the break-up of a nucleus, and fusion, the merging of nuclei.

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.4 kg gibbon
Katarina [22]

Answer:

upward force acting = 261.6 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of gibbon = 9.4 kg

arm length = 0.6 m

speed of the swing

net force must provide

F_{branch} + F_{gravity}=F_{centripetal}

force of gravity = - mg

F_{branch}=F_{centripetal}-F_{gravity}

                        = \dfrac{mv^2}{r} + mg

                        = m(\dfrac{3.4^2}{0.6} +9.8)

                        =9 x 29.067

                        = 261.6 N

upward force acting = 261.6 N

An object on earth weighs 120 N. What is it’s mass ?
inna [77]
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

120 N = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Mass = (120 N) / (9.8 m/s²)

Mass = 12.24 kg  (B)
