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

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

it should be right it's from go.ogle hm!!!

Explanation:

Anterior or ventral - front (example, the kneecap is located on the anterior side of the leg). Posterior or dorsal - back (example, the shoulder blades are located on the posterior side of the body). Medial - toward the midline of the body (example, the middle toe is located at the medial side of the foot).

Diffrence between FMRI and MRI?
love history [14]
FMRI creates the images or brain maps of brain functioning by setting up and utilizing an advanced MRI scanner in such a way that increased blood flow to the activated areas of the brain shows up on the MRI scan. The MRI scanners do not actually detect blood flow or other metabolic processes.

Consider the addition of an electron to the following atoms from the fourth period. Rank the atoms in order from the most negati
Murrr4er [49]
Electron configurations:

Ge: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p2 => 6 electrons in the outer shell

Br: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p5 => 7 electrons in the outer shell

Kr: [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p6 => 8 electrons in the outer shell

The electron affinity or propension to attract electrons is given by the electronic configuration. Remember that the most stable configuration is that were the last shell is full, i.e. it has 8 electrons.

The closer an atom is to reach the 8 electrons in the outer shell the bigger the electron affinity.

Of the three elements, Br needs only 1 electron to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has the biggest electron affinity (the least negative).

Ge: needs 2 electrons to have 8 electrons in the outer shell, so it has a smaller (more negative) electron affinity than Br.

Kr, which is a noble gas, has 8 electrons and is not willing to attract more electrons at all, the it has the lowest (more negative) electron affinity of all three to the extension that really the ion is so unstable that it does not make sense to talk about a number for the electron affinity of this atom.
