The driver of a car going 96.0 km/h suddenly sees the lights of a barrier 39.0 m ahead. It takes the driver 0.75 s to apply the

brakes, and the average acceleration during braking is -10.0 m/s2. (b) What is the maximum speed at which the car could be moving and not hit the barrier 39.0 m ahead?

Answer:

21.42m/S

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem we must perform the following steps.

1. Find the distance traveled from until the driver reacts, this is achieved using the equation for constant speed movement.

X1=VT

where

x= distance traveled

v=initial speed

T=time=0.75s

X1=0.75Vo

we must take into account that the total distance is the sum of the distance at which the pilot reacts (x1) and when it starts to decelerate (x2)

39=0.75Vo+X2

X2=39-0.75Vo

2. Now we use the equation that defines a movement with constant acceleration.

Vo =\sqrt{Vf^2 - 2(a)(x2)}

where

Vf = final speed=0m/s

Vo = Initial speed

A = acceleration =-10m/s2

X2 = displacement

now we use the ecuation of step 1

Vo =\sqrt{Vf^2 - 2(a)(39-0.75Vo)}

solving

Vo =\sqrt{0 - 2(-10))(39-0.75Vo)}\\Vo^2=780-15Vo\\Vo^2+15Vo-780=0

Now we solve the quadratic equation and find the value of Vo

the solutions are 21.42m/S, -36.41m/S

as the speed must be positive we conclude that the answer is 21.42m/S

Which is true about carbon-12 compared with carbon-13
creativ13 [48]
E mass number of any given atom depends solely on the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. The mass number of any atom can be determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons. (Mathematically this is stated as Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons). For instance, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons will have a mass number of 12AMU. However, a Carbon atom with 6 protons and 8 Neutrons will have a mass number of 14AMU. They are both Carbon atoms, however they each have a different mass number. Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons, and therefore, different mass numbers, are called isotopes. Isotopic symbols are used to indicate isotopes of the same elements. In the following isotopic symbols the lower number is the atomic number…it is the number of protons. The upper number is the mass number, it represents to sum of the protons and neutrons in the atoms nucleus.

How much heat must be removed from 456 g of water at 25.0°C to change it into ice at - 10.0°C?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

229,098.96 J

Explanation:

mass of water (m) = 456 g = 0.456 kg

initial temperature (T) = 25 degrees

final temperature (t) = - 10 degrees

specific heat of ice = 2090 J/kg

latent heat of fusion =33.5 x 10^(4) J/kg

specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg

for the water to be converted to ice it must undergo three stages:

  • the water must cool from 25 degrees to 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of water x change in temp

        Q = 0.456 x 4186 x (25 - (-10)) = 66808.56 J

  • the water must freeze at 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of fusion x change in temp

         Q = 0.456 x 33.5 x 10^(4) = 152760 J

  • the water must cool further to -10 degrees from 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of ice x change in temp

        Q = 0.456 x 2090 x (0 - (-10)) = 9530.4 J

The quantity of heat removed from all three stages would be added to get the total heat removed.

Q total = 66,808.56 + 152,760 + 9,530.4 = 229,098.96 J

A suspended object A is attracted to a neutral wall. It's also attracted to a positively-charged object B. Which of the followin
olga2289 [7]

There are two particular cases, the first is when Object A is attracted to the neutral wall. This would indicate that the object is not neutral, as there is an attraction.

At the same time we know that Object A is attracted to an object B. And therefore, the load of A must be opposite to that of B. Remember that opposite charges attract each other. If the charge of object B is positive, then the charge of object A will be negative.

Option B is correct: It has a negative charge.

If Fg=mg solve for g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:Fg = mg however newtons second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to it's mass times it's acceleration so what allows us to say that Fg = mg because certainly not for every single situation the net force is going to equal to the force of gravity please explain... what allows us to say Fg = mg
