A.shooting a rifle,rifles produce up to 140db and it only take about 140db to permanently damage one's hearing severely also it depends how close it is fired to one's ear.

Melvin is traveling south on I-95 at 29 m/s (65 mph) when a deer jumps into his path, 50 m ahead. a. If his reaction time is 0.1

Answer:

a. 5.22 meters

b. 2.9 seconds

c. No, Melvin does not hit the deer

Explanation:

The parameters with which Melvin is travelling are as follows;

The speed of Melvin's motion, u = 29 m/s

The distance from Melvin at which the deer jumps into the path = 50 m

a. Distance, d = Velocity, u × Time, t

The time it takes Melvin to react = 0.18 seconds

The distance, "d₁" Melvin travels before his foot hits the break = The velocity with which Melvin was traveling, "u" × The time duration it takes Melvin to hit the brakes, "t₁"

∴ d₁ = 29 m/s × 0.18 s = 5.22 m

The distance, Melvin travels before his foot hits the break = d₁ = 5.22 m

b. Melvin's acceleration after his foot hits the brakes, a = -10 m/s²

Therefore, we have;

The time it takes "t₂" it takes for him to come to a complete stop given as follows;

y = u + a × t₂

Where;

v = The final velocity after Melvin comes to a complete stop = 0 m/s

By substituting the known values, we have;

0 = 29 m/s + (-10 m/s²) × t₂ = 29 m/s - 10 m/s² × t₂

∴ 29 m/s = 10 m/s² × t₂

t₂ = (29 m/s)/(10 m/s²) = 2.9 s

The time it takes it takes for him to come to a complete stop = t₂ = 2.9 s

c. The distance, "d₂", Melvin reaches while accelerating (decelerating) at -10 m/s² to come to a complete stop is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·d₂

Therefore, we have;

0² = (29 m/s)² + 2 × (-10 m/s) × d₂ = (29 m/s)² - 2 × 10 m/s × d₂

∴ (29 m/s)² = 2 × 10 m/s × d₂

d₂ = ((29 m/s)²)/(2 × 10 m/s²) = (841 m²/s²)/(20 m/s²) = 42.05 m

The distance, Melvin reaches while accelerating (decelerating) at -10 m/s² to come to a complete stop = d₂ = 42.05 m

Given that d₂ = 42.05 m < 50 m (The distance separating Melvin's initial location and the deer, Melvin does not hit the deer.

An accepted value for the acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 m/s2. In an experiment with pendulums, you calculate that the val

Fed [463]

g Generally the accepted value of acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 $m/s^2$

as per the question the acceleration due to gravity is found to be 9.42 $m/s^2$ in an experiment performed.

the difference between the ideal and observed value is 0.381.

hence the error is - $\frac{0.381}{9.801} *100$

=3.88735 percent

the error is not so high,so it can be accepted.

now we have to know why this occurs-the equation of time period of the simple pendulum is give as- $T=2\pi\sqrt[2]{l/g}$

$g=4\pi^2\frac{l}{T^2}$

As the experiment is done under air resistance,so it will affect to the time period.hence the time period will be more which in turn decreases the value of g.

if this experiment is done in a environment of zero air resistance,we will get the value of g which must be approximately equal to 9.801 $m/s^2$
