A car passes point “A” and then 120 meters later. It’s velocity was measured 21 m/s. If it’s acceleration was constant at 0.853

m/s2. What was the car’s velocity at point “A”?

Recall that

{v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta x

where v_i and v_f are the initial and final velocities, respecitvely; a is the acceleration; and \Delta x is the change in position.

So we have

\left(21\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2-{v_i}^2=2\left(0.853\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(120\,\mathrm m)

\implies v_i\approx\boxed{15.4\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}

(Normally, this equation has two solutions, but we omit the negative one because the car is moving in one direction.)

Compare the physical sciences to the life sciences.
Elden [556K]

1.Life science involves fields of discipline catering to living organisms such as we humans while physical science caters to non-living organisms.

2.Life science has more fields of discipline than physical science.

3.Physical science relies on laws and theories to explain concepts while life science relies on biological explanations and can also rely on theories.

In the sport of curling, large smooth stones are slid across an ice court to land on a target. Sometimes the stones need to move
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

To increase kinetic friction, the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited.

To reduce kinetic friction. increase the amount of fine water droplets during pregame preparation and sweeping in front of the curling stones.

Explanation:

In curling sports, since the ice sheets are flat, the friction on the stone would be too high and the large smooth stone would not travel half as far. Thus controlling the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited pregame is necessary to increase friction.

On the other hand, reducing ice kinetic friction involves two ways. The first way is adding bumps to the ice which is known as pebbling. Fine water droplets are sprayed onto the flat ice surface. These droplets freeze into small "pebbles", which the curling stones "ride" on as they slide down the ice. This increases contact pressure which lowers the friction of the stone with the ice. As a result, the stones travel farther, and curl less.  

The second way to reduce the kinetic friction is sweeping in front of the large smooth stone. The sweeping action quickly heats and melts the pebbles on the ice leaving a film of water. This film reduces the friction between the stone and ice.
