A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v0. At t=0 the car driver n

otices a red light ahead and slows down with constant acceleration −a0. Just as the car comes to a full stop, the light immediately turns green, and the car then accelerates back to its original speed v0 with constant acceleration a0. During the same time interval, the train continues to travel at the constant speed v0.Part A :- How much time does it take for the car to come to a full stop? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0Part B:- How much time does it take for the car to accelerate from the full stop to its original cruising speed? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0.Part C:- The train does not stop at the stoplight. How far behind the train is the car when the car reaches its original speed v0 again? Express the separation distance in terms of v0 and a0 . Your answer should be positive.

Answer:

a) t1 = v0/a0

b) t2 = v0/a0

c) v0^2/a0

Explanation:

A)

How much time does it take for the car to come to a full stop? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0

Vf = 0

Vf = v0 - a0*t

0 = v0 - a0*t

a0*t = v0

t1 = v0/a0

B)

How much time does it take for the car to accelerate from the full stop to its original cruising speed? Express your answer in terms of v0 and a0.

at this point

U = 0

v0 = u + a0*t

v0 = 0 + a0*t

v0 = a0*t

t2 = v0/a0

C)

The train does not stop at the stoplight. How far behind the train is the car when the car reaches its original speed v0 again? Express the separation distance in terms of v0 and a0 . Your answer should be positive.

t1 = t2 = t

Distance covered by the train = v0 (2t) = 2v0t

and we know t = v0/a0

so distanced covered = 2v0 (v0/a0) = (2v0^2)/a0

now distance covered by car before coming to full stop

Vf2 = v0^2- 2a0s1

2a0s1 = v0^2

s1 = v0^2 / 2a0

After the full stop;

V0^2 = 2a0s2

s2 = v0^2/2a0

Snet = 2v0^2 /2a0 = v0^2/a0

Now the separation between train and car

= (2v0^2)/a0 - v0^2/a0

= v0^2/a0

A thin, metallic spherical shell of radius 0.347 m0.347 m has a total charge of 7.53×10−6 C7.53×10−6 C placed on it. A point cha
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

E = 12640.78 N/C

Explanation:

In order to calculate the electric field you can use the Gaussian theorem.

Thus, you have:

\Phi_E=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o}

ФE: electric flux trough the Gaussian surface

Q: net charge inside the Gaussian surface

εo: dielectric permittivity of vacuum = 8.85*10^-12 C^2/Nm^2

If you take the Gaussian surface as a spherical surface, with radius r, the electric field is parallel to the surface anywhere. Then, you have:

\Phi_E=EA=E(4\pi r^2)=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o}\\\\E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_o r^2}

r can be taken as the distance in which you want to calculate the electric field, that is, 0.795m

Next, you replace the values of the parameters in the last expression, by taking into account that the net charge inside the Gaussian surface is:

Q=7.53*10^{-6}C+3.65*10^{-6}C=1.115*10^{-5}C

Finally, you obtain for E:

E=\frac{1.118*10^{-5}C}{4\pi (8.85*10^{-12C^2/Nm^2})(0.795m)^2}=12640.78\frac{N}{C}

hence, the electric field at 0.795m from the center of the spherical shell is 12640.78 N/C

A block, M1=10kg, slides down a smooth, curved incline of height 5m. It collides elastically with another block, M2=5kg, which i
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

2.86 m

Explanation:

Given:

M₁ = 10 kg

M₂ = 5 kg

\mu_k = 0.5

height, h = 5 m

distance traveled, s = 2 m

spring constant, k = 250 N/m

now,

the initial velocity of the first block as it approaches the second block

u₁ = √(2 × g × h)

or

u₁ = √(2 × 9.8 × 5)

or

u₁ = 9.89 m/s

let the velocity of second ball be v₂

now from the conservation of momentum, we have

M₁ × u₁ = M₂ × v₂

on substituting the values, we get

10 × 9.89 = 5 × v₂

or

v₂ = 19.79 m/s

now,

let the velocity of mass 2 when it reaches the spring be v₃

from the work energy theorem,  we have

Work done by the friction force = change in kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

0.5\times5\times9.8\times2 = \frac{1}{2}\times5\times( v_3^2-19.79^2)

or

v₃ = 20.27 m/s

now, let the spring is compressed by the distance 'x'

therefore, from the conservation of energy

we have

Energy of the spring =  Kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_3^2

on substituting the values, we get

\frac{1}{2}\times250\times x^2=\frac{1}{2}\times5\times20.27^2

or

x = 2.86 m

What color do glacier appear if they are moving towards us?
kirill [66]

Answer:

Subcategories: Ice field

Explanation:

Glacier ice is blue because the red (long wavelengths) part of white light is absorbed by ice and the blue (short wavelengths) light is transmitted and scattered. The longer the path light travels in ice, the more blue it appears.
