The answer would be vertically. This is from the time when there is already an incomplete polarization in the direction of the analogous to the horizontal surface, we only need to relate some vertical polarization (through sunglasses) to stabilize things off.

6 A test of a driver's perception/reaction time is being conducted on a special testing track with level, wet pavement and a dri
mylen [45]

Answer:

a. 10.5 s b. 6.6 s

Explanation:

a. The driver's perception/reaction time before drinking.

To find the driver's perception time before drinking, we first find his deceleration from

v² = u² + 2as where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 0 m/s (since he stops), a = deceleration of driver and s = distance moved by driver = 385 ft = 385 × 0.3048 m = 117.35 m

So, a = v² - u²/2s

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = v² - u²/2s

a = (0 m/s)² - (22.35 m/s)²/2(117.35 m)

a =  - 499.52 m²/s²/234.7 m

a = -2.13 m/s²

Using a = (v - u)/t where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 0 m/s (since he stops), a = deceleration of driver = -2.13 m/s² and t = reaction time

So, t = (v - u)/a

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (0 m/s - 22.35 m/s)/-2.13 m/s²

t = - 22.35 m/s/-2.13 m/s²

t = 10.5 s

b. The driver's perception/reaction time after drinking.

To find the driver's perception time after drinking, we first find his deceleration from

v² = u² + 2as where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 30 mi/h = 30 × 1609 m/3600 s = 13.41 m/s, a = deceleration of driver and s = distance moved by driver = 385 ft = 385 × 0.3048 m = 117.35 m

So, a = v² - u²/2s

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = v² - u²/2s

a = (13.41 m/s)² - (22.35 m/s)²/2(117.35 m)

a = 179.83 m²/s² - 499.52 m²/s²/234.7 m

a = -319.69 m²/s² ÷ 234.7 m

a = -1.36 m/s²

Using a = (v - u)/t where u = initial speed of driver = 50 mi/h = 50 × 1609 m/3600 s = 22.35 m/s, v = final speed of driver = 30 mi/h = 30 × 1609 m/3600 s = 13.41 m/s, a = deceleration of driver = -1.36 m/s² and t = reaction time

So, t = (v - u)/a

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (13.41 m/s - 22.35 m/s)/-1.36 m/s²

t = - 8.94 m/s/-1.36 m/s²

t = 6.6 s

In a Hydrogen atom an electron rotates around a stationary proton in a circular orbit with an approximate radius of r =0.053nm.
leonid [27]

Answer:

(a): F_e = 8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

(b): F_g = 3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

(c): \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

Explanation:

Given that an electron revolves around the hydrogen atom in a circular orbit of radius r = 0.053 nm = 0.053\times 10^{-9} m.

Part (a):

According to Coulomb's law, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of interaction between two charged particles of charges q_1 and q_2 respectively is given by

F_e = \dfrac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}

where,

  • k = Coulomb's constant = 9\times 10^9\ \rm Nm^2/C^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the charges.

For the given system,

The Hydrogen atom consists of a single proton, therefore, the charge on the Hydrogen atom, q_1 = +1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

The charge on the electron, q_2 = -1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C.

These two are separated by the distance, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_e = \dfrac{(9\times 10^9)\times |+1.6\times 10^{-19}|\times |-1.6\times 10^{-19}|}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=8.202\times 10^{-8}\ \rm N.

Part (b):

The gravitational force of attraction between two objects of masses m_1 and m_1 respectively is given by

F_g = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}.

where,

  • G = Universal Gravitational constant = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\ \rm Nm^2/kg^2.
  • r = distance of separation between the masses.

For the given system,

The mass of proton, m_1 = 1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg.

The mass of the electron, m_2 = 9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg.

Distance between the two, r = 0.053\times 10^{-9}\ m.

Thus, the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction between the electron and the proton is given by

F_g = \dfrac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})\times (1.67\times 10^{-27})\times (9.11\times 10^{-31})}{(0.053\times 10^{-9})^2}=3.6125\times 10^{-47}\ \rm N.

The ratio \dfrac{F_e}{F_g}:

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{8.202\times 10^{-8}}{3.6125\times 10^{-47}}=2.27\times 10^{39}.

Review. From a large distance away, a particle of mass 2.00 g and charge 15.0σC is fired at 21.0 i^ m/s straight toward a second
MissTica

(a)

Determine the system's initial configuration at ri = infinite particle separation and the system's final configuration at the point of closest approach.

Since the two-particle system is not being affected by any outside forces, we may treat it as an isolated system for momentum and use the momentum conservation law.

m1v1 + m1v2 = (m1+m2)v

The second particle's starting velocity is zero, so:

m1v1  = (m1+m2)v

After substituting the values we get,

v = 6i m/s

(b)

Since the two particle system is also energy-isolated, we may use the energy-conservation principle.

dK + dU = 0

Ki +Ui = Kf + Uf

Substituting the values,

1/2m1v1^2i + 1/2 m2v2^2i + 0 = 1/2m1v1^2f + 1/2m2v2^2f +ke q1q2/rf

The second particle's initial speed is 0 (v2 = 0). Additionally, both the first and second particle's final velocity have the same value, v. Put these values in place of the preceding expression:

1/2m1v1^2i  = 1/2m1v1^2 + 1/2m2v2^2 +ke q1q2/rf

After solving we get,

rf = 2ke q1q2 / m1v1^2 - (m1+m2)v^2

Substituting the values we get,

rf = 3.64m

(c)

v1f = (m1-m2 / m1 + m2) v1i

v1f  = -9i m/s

(d)

v2f =  (2m1/ m1 +m2) v1i

After substituting the values,

v2f = 12i m/ s

Question :

Review. From a large distance away, a particle of mass 2.00 g and charge 15.0 \muμC is fired at 21.0 m/s straight toward a second particle, originally stationary but free to move, with mass 5.00 g and charge 8.50 \muμC. Both particles are constrained to move only along the x axis. (a) At the instant of closest approach, both particles will be moving at the same velocity. Find this velocity. (b) Find the distance of closest approach. After the interaction, the particles will move far apart again. At this time, find the velocity of (c) the 2.00-g particle and (d) the 5.00-g particle. \hat{i}

Sam is recklessly driving 60 mph in a 30 mph speed zone when he suddenly sees the police. he steps on the brakes and slows to 30
barxatty [35]
For this problem, we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations used for this problem are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
where
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity
t is the time

The solution is as follows;

a = (60mph - 30 mph)/(3 s * 1 h/3600 s)
a = 36,000 mph²

2(36,000 mph²)(x) = 60² - 30²
Solving for x,
x = 0.0375 miles
