Suppose a car is traveling at +20.3 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.207 s has elapsed (the reaction t

ime), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 7.00 m/s2. What is the stopping distance of the car, as measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light?

Answer:

33.6371 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 20.3 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -7 m/s²

Distance traveled in the 0.207 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

⇒Distance = 20.3×0.207 = 4.2021 m

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-20.3^2}{2\times -7}\\\Rightarrow s=29.435\ m

Distance traveled by the car while braking is 29.435 m

Total distance measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light is 29.435+4.2021 = 33.6371 m

1.80 kJ of heat is added to a slug of gold and a separate 1.80 kJ of heat is added to a slug of manganese. The heat capacity of
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

final temperature of  slug of gold is 37°C

final temperature of  slug of manganese is 28.56°C

Explanation:

Hello! To solve this problem we must take into account the concept of heat capacity, this is defined as the ratio between energy and temperature rise.

In other words it is the amount of energy that is required to increase a temperature degree.

Taking into account the above we infer the following equation

where  

C=heat capacity

Water is a compound because it is what?Water is a compound because it
seraphim [82]

Water is a compound because it always has two hydrogen atoms for each oxygen atom. Water can be broken down into simpler substances. Water is a compound because pure water is composed of only H₂O molecules. Each molecule of water is a chemical combination of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.  Water is a type of molecular compound.

\boxed{~The~Answer~is~B.~}

<h3>Further explanation</h3>
  • Compounds are substances composed of two or more different elements chemically combined that can be separated into simpler substances only by chemical reactions.
  • Water, for example, is a compound because pure water is composed of only H₂O molecules. Each molecule of water is a chemical combination of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
  • A molecular bond or covalent bond occurs as a result of electrons can be shared between atoms. Molecular compounds have molecular (covalent) bonds.
  • An ionic bond occurs as a result of electrons can be completely removed from one atom and given to another. Ionic compounds have ionic bonds.
  • Examples of other molecular compounds are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆). Each molecule of CO₂ is a chemical combination of two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom. Each molecule of C₆H₁₂O₆ is a chemical combination of six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms.
  • Table salt (NaCl) is a compound because it is made from more than one kind of element (Na and Cl), but it is not a molecule because the bond that holds NaCl together is an ionic bond. An electron from the outer shell of sodium is released and taken by chlorine to reach octet conditions on both sides, that is how ionic bonds occur. Thus NaCl is an ionic compound.
  • A diatomic molecule is a molecule made from two atoms of the same type. For example, oxygen gas in the atmosphere is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds. It is not a compound because it is made from atoms of only one element, i.e. oxygen. Another example is hydrogen gas, nitrogen gas, and chlorine gas.
  • Elements are the simplest forms of matter and therefore cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any chemical or physical reactions. Some examples of elements include hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, sodium, iron, and sulfur. Elements can combine with other elements to synthesize compounds.

What is the ultimate source of energy that makes the Sun shine?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The sun's energy comes from thermonuclear fusion reactions.

Explanation:

Due to the Sun's strong gravitational pull, hydrogen atoms fuse, resulting in helium atoms. During this process, tremendous amounts of energy are released, or the energy of the Sun.

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec
seropon [69]

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )
