A train 471 m long is moving on a straight track with a speed of 75.1 km/h. The engineer applies the brakes at a crossing, and l
hram777 [196]

Answer:

t = 37.6 s

Explanation:

As we know that train is initially moving with the speed

v_i = 75.1 km/h

now we know that

v_i = 20.86 m/s

now the final speed of the train when it crossed the crossing

v_f = 15 km/h

v_f = 4.17 m/s

now we can use kinematics here

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

4.17^2 - 20.86^2 = 2 a(471)

a = -0.44 m/s^2

Now the time to cross that junction is given as

v_f - v_i = at

4.17 - 20.86 = a(-0.44)

t = 37.6 s

Who invented the wedge simple machine and why?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Gene Sarazen began to win tournaments in 1935 with a new club he had invented that was specialized for sand play. He is hailed as the inventor of the sand wedge.

Explanation:

A wedge is a triangular shaped tool, and is a portable inclined plane, and one of the six classical simple machines. It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place. It functions by converting a force applied to its blunt end into forces perpendicular (normal) to its inclined surfaces. The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the ratio of the length of its slope to its width.[1][2] Although a short wedge with a wide angle may do a job faster, it requires more force than a long wedge with a narrow angle.

The force is applied on a flat, broad surface. This energy is transported to the pointy, sharp end of the wedge, hence the force is transported.

The wedge simply transports energy and collects it to the pointy end, consequently breaking the item. In this way, much pressure is put on a thin area.

You place a light bulb 8 cm in front of a concave mirror. You then move a sheet of paper back and forth in front of the mirror.
Alika [10]

sorry - late reply...just stumbled across tis...hope u can still use it :)


By the mirror equation: 1/di + 1/do = 1/f

<span>
</span>

<span>where di = distance to image = +12cm (+ for real image)</span>


and do = distance to object = +8cm


Substitute and solve for f, the focal length

<span><span>
1/12 + 1/8 = 1/f
</span><span>
1/f = (8 + 12) / 12 * 8 = 20/96
</span><span>
so f = 96/20 = 4.8 cm</span>
