A car is traveling 20 m s when the driver sees a child standing in the road. he takes 0.8 seconds to react, then steps on the br

akes and slows down at 7.0 m/s squared. how far does the car go before it stops?

We use kinematic equations,

During reaction time,

S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2                        (A)

During the deceleration,

v^2= u^2 + 2as.                                   (B)

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity , a is acceleration and t is time.

There is no deceleration during his 0.8 sec reaction time so a=0, from equation (A),

S = 20 \ m/s (0.8 \ s) + 0 \times t= 16 \ m

During the deceleration (a = -7.0 m/s^2) ,  final velocity will be zero i.e v = 0, therefore from equation (B),

0 = (20 m/s)^2 +2 (-7.0 m/s^2) \ s \\\\ s =  \frac{-400}{-14} = 28. 57 m

Thus, the distance traveled by car after he sees need to put brakes is

S + s = 16 \ m + 28.57 \ m =44 .57 \ m

A spool whose inner core has a radius of 1.00 cm and whose end caps have a radius of 1.50 cm has a string tightly wound around t
White raven [17]

Answer:

v₁ = 37.5 cm / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use that angular and linear velocity are related

        v = w r

in the case of the spool the angular velocity for the whole system is constant,

They indicate the linear velocity v₀ = 25.0 cm / s for a radius of r₀ = 1.00 cm,

         w = v₀ /r₀

for the outside of the spool r₁ = 1.5 cm

         w = v₁ / r₁1

since the angular velocity is the same we set the two expressions equal

        \frac{v_o}{r_o} = \frac{v_1}{r_1}

        v1 = \frac{r_1}{r_o} \ \ v_o

let's calculate

       v₁ = \frac{1.50}{1.00} \ \ 25.0

       v₁ = 37.5 cm / s

4 (JAMB) The diagram below shows a light see-saw, which is balanced horizontally by the weights W₁, W2, W3, W4 in the positions
damaskus [11]

The equation that represents the principle of the lever balance is:

  • W₁ + W₂ = W3 + W4; option A.

<h3>What is the principle of moments?</h3>

The principle of moments states when a body is in equilibrium, the sum of the clockwise moment about a point equals the sum of anticlockwise moment about that point.

A see-saw represents a balanced system of moments.

The sum of clockwise moment = The sum of anticlockwise moments.

Assuming W1 and W2 are clockwise moments and W3 and W4 are anticlockwise moments.

The equation will b:  W₁ + W₂ = W3 + W4

In conclusion, a balanced see-saw illustrates the principle of the lever balance.

In certain cases, using both the momentum principle and energy principle to analyze a system is useful, as they each can reveal
kramer

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is the following:

F_G = G * \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} \\

Where:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 * 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}

m1 & m2 = the mass of two related objects

r = distance between the two related objects

The problem gives you everything you need to plug into the formula, except for the gravitational constant. Let me know if you need further clarification.
