If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h in 3.0 s, what is the magnitude of its acceleration, ass
mixas84 [53]

Answer:3.874 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Car speed decreases at a constant rate from 64 mi/h to 30 mi/h

in 3 sec

60mi/h \approx 26.8224m/s

34mi/h \approx 15.1994 m/s

we know acceleration is given by =\frac{velocity}{Time}

a=\frac{15.1994-26.8224}{3}

a=-3.874 m/s^2

negative indicates that it is stopping the car

Distance traveled

v^2-u^2=2as

\left ( 15.1994\right )^2-\left ( 26.8224\right )^2=2\left ( -3.874\right )s

s=\frac{488.419}{2\times 3.874}

s=63.038 m

A cylinder is fitted with a piston, beneath which is a spring, as in the drawing. The cylinder is open to the air at the top. Fr
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x =  0.0734 m = 7.34 cm

Explanation:

First we shall calculate the area of the piston:

Area = \pi radius^2\\Area = \pi (0.028\ m)^2\\Area = 0.00246\ m^2

Now, we will calculate the force on the piston due to atmospheric pressure:

Atmospheric\ Pressure = \frac{Force}{Area}\\\\Force = (Atmospheric\ Pressure)(Area)\\Force = (101325\ N/m^2)(0.00246\ m^2) \\Force = F = 249.56\ N

Now, for the compression of the spring we will use Hooke's Law as follows:

F = kx\\

where,

k = spring constant = 3400 N/m

x = compression = ?

Therefore,

<u>x =  0.0734 m = 7.34 cm</u>
