A traffic accident detective measures the skid marks left by a car, 825kg. He determines that the distance between the point tha

t the driver slammed on the brakes and the point where the car came to a stop was 34.0 m. From a reference manual he determines that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road under the prevailing conditions was 0.300. How fast was the car going when the driver applied the brakes? (This car was not equipped with anti-lock brakes.

Doing a force balance on the car:
ma = Fr
ma = μmg
a = μg
a = 0.3(9.81)
a = 29.43 m/s2

Using the formula:
2ax = v2
2(29.43)(34) = v2
v = 44.74 m/s = 161.05 km/h

The car was going 44.74 m/s or 161.05 kph when the brakes were applied.

If the distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern is 18 mm and the slits are
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Wavelength of light is 600 nm

Explanation:

Given

Distance between the first order maximum and the tenth order maximum of a double-slit pattern = 18 mm

Separation between the slits = 0.15 mm

Distance of screen from the slits = 50 cm

Wavelength

= \frac{18*10^{-3} * 0.15 *10^{-3}}{0.50*9} \\= 6 *10^{-7}\\= 600nm
