Answer:

The shortest possible stopping distance of the car is 175.319 meters.

Explanation:

In this case we see that driver use the brakes to stop the car by means of kinetic friction force. Deceleration of the car is directly proportional to kinetic friction coefficient and can be determined by Second Newton's Law:

\Sigma F_{x} = -\mu_{k}\cdot N = m \cdot a (Eq. 1)

\Sigma F_{y} = N-m\cdot g = 0 (Eq. 2)

After quick handling, we get that deceleration experimented by the car is equal to:

a = -\mu_{k}\cdot g (Eq. 3)

Where:

a - Deceleration of the car, measured in meters per square second.

\mu_{k} - Kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that \mu_{k} = 0.0735 and g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then deceleration of the car is:

a = -(0.0735)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )

a = -0.721\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The stopping distance of the car (\Delta s), measured in meters, is determined from the following kinematic expression:

\Delta s = \frac{v^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a} (Eq. 4)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial speed of the car, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed of the car, measured in meters per second.

If we know that v_{o} = 15.9\,\frac{m}{s}, v = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and a = -0.721\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, stopping distance of the car is:

\Delta s = \frac{\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(15.9\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(-0.721\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)}

\Delta s = 175.319\,m

The shortest possible stopping distance of the car is 175.319 meters.

Hey can anyone please help me with this it’s due in few hours and I’m stuck with ittt

Answer:

Check body of the explanation

Explanation:

Ooook, quick theory rushdown. if you're at a depth of h in a tank of a fluid, the pressure is the sum of the atmosferic pressure (if the tank is open on top) plus a term which is the product of acceleration of gravity - about 10 ms^-^2, the density of whatever you're sinking in, and the depth at which you are. In formula, p(h) = p_0 + \rho g h, and the pressure is the same for every point of the tank at the same depth.

At this point, we can start answering!

1a. The pressure at A is - not counting atmosferic pressure - 1000 * 10 * 1 = 10^4 Pa, while in B is 1000*10*2 = 2*10^4 Pa, so it's half of it.

1b. The two points are at the same depth, so the pressure is the same - they would be even if the two cilinders weren't linked!

1c. Ditto. Same depth? same pressure!

1d. Usual equation, this time density is 800. Pressure is 800*10*2 = 1,6*10^4 Pa: Since the density is 4/5 of water, the pressure is also 4/5 of the one exerted by water

2a. The volume is simply the product, so 4m*3m*2m = 24m^3

2b. Density is defined as mass over volume, so you simply multiply the volume you found earlier by the density of paraffine: 800* 24 = 1,92 *10^4kg

2c. Weight is defined as the mass of something times the acceleration due to gravity, in our case it's 1.92 *10^4 kg * 10 ms^{-2} = 1.92 * 10^5 N

2d. \rho gh again, what a surprise! 800 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 1,6* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =1.6*10^4 Pa

3. Yet again, \rho gh. 1000 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 2* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =2*10^4 Pa

These biogeochemical cycles, from its terminology and discernable word morphology- involves the biological, geological and chemical components that make out to complete an exact and purposed cycle. The purpose in these cycles are to maintain balance and to ensure the ongoing process of the living and non-living organisms in the environment. These cycles’ help to living organisms survive and thrive. One popular example is the water cycle. </span>

Two cars leave towns 680 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. one car's rate is 10 kilometers per hou
Evgen [1.6K]

D = distance between the cars at the start of time = 680 km

v₁ = speed of one car

v₂ = speed of other car = v₁ - 10

t = time taken to meet = 4 h

distance traveled by one car in time "t" + distance traveled by other car in time "t" = D

v₁ t + v₂ t = D

(v₁ + v₂) t = D

inserting the values

(v₁ + v₁ - 10) (4) = 680

v₁ = 90 km/h

rate of slower car is given as

v₂ = v₁ - 10

v₂ = 90 - 10 = 80 km/h
