A motorist is traveling at 25m/s. He is 100 m from a stop light when he sees it turns yellow. His reaction time, before stepping

on the brake is 0.50 ses
a. What is the distance traveled during the reaction time?
b. What is the velocity of the motorist at the end of his reaction time?
c. What steady deceleration while braking will bring him to a stop right at the light?

Answer

given,

speed of motorist = 25 m/s

distance = 100 m

time to apply break = 0.5 s

a) distance traveled during the reaction time

   D = s x t

   D = 25 x 0.5

   D = 12.5 m

b) the velocity of the motorist at the end of the reaction time is equal to 0 m/s

c) using equation of motion

  v² = u² + 2 a s

    v = 0 m/s

    u = 25 m/s

  0² = 25² + 2 x a x 100

  a =- \dfrac{625}{200}

      a = -3.125 m/s²

Brainliest if right.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

the third law (for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction).

Explanation:

The skateboarder pushes backwards on the road (that is he applies a force on the road in a direction opposite the direction of intended motion). By Newton's third law, this action of the skateboarder causes an equal reaction of the road on the skateboarder in the opposite direction. Newton's third law states that action and reaction are equal but opposite in direction. So, the road in response to this backward force pushes the skateboarder in the forward direction causing the skateboarder and the skateboard to move in the forward direction.

As the captain of the scientific team sent to Planet Physics, one of your tasks is to measure g. You have a long, thin wire labe
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

1.19 m/s²

Explanation:

The frequency of the wave generated in the string in the first experiment is f = n/2l√T/μ were T = tension in string = mg were m = 1.30 kg weight = 1300 g , μ = mass per unit length of string = 1.01 g/m. l = length of string to pulley = l₀/2 were l₀ = lent of string. Since f is the second harmonic, n = 2, so

f = 2/2(l₀/2)√mg/μ = 2(√mg/μ)/l₀    (1)

Also, for the second experiment, the period of the wave in the string is T = 2π√l₀/g. From (1) l₀ = 2(√mg/μ)/f and from (2) l₀ = T²g/4π²

Equating (1) and (2) we ave

2(√mg/μ)/f = T²g/4π²

Making g subject of the formula

g = 2π√(2√(m/μ)/f)/T

The period T = 316 s/100 = 3.16 s

Substituting the other values into , we have

g = 2π√(2√(1300 g/1.01 g/m)/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(2 × 35.877/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(71.753/200 Hz)/3.16

g = 2π√(0.358)/3.16

g = 2π × 0.599/3.16

g = 1.19 m/s²

PLEASE I NEED ANSWER BY 7:40!!!!!!!
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Student A is correct

Explanation:

Colored objects look the way they do because of reflected light. When sunlight is shined on a green leaf, the violet, red and orange wavelengths are absorbed. The reflected wavelengths appear green. In each case we are seeing the complementary colors to the ones absorbed.
