Answer:

F=5833.3 N N

Explanation:

Newton's second law applied to the car

F= m*a Formula (1)

F: Force in Newtons (N)

m : mass in kg

a: acceleration ( m/s²)

kinematics car

vf= v₀ + a*t  Formula (2)

vf : final velocity (m/s)

v₀ : final velocity  (m/s)

a : acceleration  ( m/s²)

t : time t

Equivalences

1 km= 1000m

1 h = 3600 s

Data

m= 1000kg

v₀ = 90 km/h = 90*1000/3600 m/s = 25 m/s

vf= 0

t= 6 s

Problem Development

We calculate the acceleration replacing the data in the formula (2) :

0 =  25 + a*6

a= -25/6 = -4.16 m/s² ( The negative sign indicates that the car is braking)

We calculate the force is required to stop the car replacing the data  in the formula (1)

-F = 1400 kg*(-4.16 m/s²)

F=5833.3 N

Volgvan

Answer : The temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K

Explanation :

Efficiency of carnot heat engine : It is the ratio of work done by the system to the system to the amount of heat transferred to the system at the higher temperature.

Formula used for efficiency of the heat engine.

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

where,

\eta = efficiency = 0.780

T_h = Temperature of hot reservoir = ?

T_c = Temperature of cold reservoir = -24.8^oC=273+(-24.8)=248.2K

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\eta =1-\frac{T_c}{T_h}

0.780=1-\frac{248.2K}{T_h}

T_h=1128.18K

Therefore, the temperature of the hot reservoir (in Kelvins) is 1128.18 K

sdas [7]
The best answer would be the 4th choice. "They help scientists explain concepts that are difficult to observe, this also covers the first answer which helps the scientist to answer complex questions. A scientific model is not used prove scientific laws as they may not always have all the data to prove so, instead it is used to allow them to explain better concepts revolving around science through research and may also allow them to predict results based on the accumulation of data and analyzing the trend of this resulting information.

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 44.1m/s^2 . The acce
ollegr [7]
The acceleration and distance is related to the following expression:
y=v0*t + a*t^2/2 ; v0=0 
y=44.1*100/2 = 2205m 
hence, the speed will be 
v=0 + a*t = 441m/s 
from that height it will just be subjected to the gravitational acceleration 
0=v_acc^2 -2g*y_free 
y_free = v_acc^2/2g = 9922.5m 
<span>y_max = y_acc+y_free = 441+9922.5 =10363.5m</span>
