A car drives to the east in a time of 6 hours. Then, immediately (not realistic, but just assume this is the case for this probl

em), travels 12 km to the west in 3 hours. The average speed for the entire trip is 8 km/hr. What is the average speed of the car for the first part of the trip, in km/hr, while the car was traveling east?

Answer:

Average speed of car in the first trip is 10 km/hr    

Explanation:

It is given that first the car drives 6 hours to the east

Then travels 12 km to west in 3 hours

Average speed for the entire trip = 8 km/hr

Total time = 3+6 = 9 hour

So distance traveled in 9 hour = 9×8 = 72 km

As the car travel 12 km in west so distance traveled in east = 72-12 = 60 km

Time by which car traveled in east = 6 hour

So speed =\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{60}{6}=10km/hr

So average speed of car in the first trip is 10 km/hr

According to Galileo, this quantity is not needed to keep a body in motion under ideal conditions.

This condition is called Galileo's Law of Inertia which states that all bodies accelerate at the smart rate , no matter what are their masses or size. Inertia is that tendency of matter to resist changes in its velocity.  <span>Isaac Newton's first law of motion captures the concept of inertia. </span>

Answer:

1. -8.20 m/s²

2. 73.4 m

3. 19.4 m

Explanation:

1. Apply Newton's second law to the car in the y direction.

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Apply Newton's second law to the car in the x direction.

∑F = ma

-F = ma

-Nμ = ma

-mgμ = ma

a = -gμ

Given μ = 0.837:

a = -(9.8 m/s²) (0.837)

a = -8.20 m/s²

2. Given:

v₀ = 34.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -8.20 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (34.7 m/s)² + 2 (-8.20 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 73.4 m

3. Since your braking distance is the same as the car in front of you, the minimum safe following distance is the distance you travel during your reaction time.

d = v₀t

d = (34.7 m/s) (0.56 s)

d = 19.4 m

You toss a 0.40-kg ball at 9.0 ms/ to a 14-kg dog standing on an iced-over pond. The dog catches the ball and begins to slide on
just olya [345]

Answer:

a)   v_{f} = 0.25 m / s  b) u = 0.25 m / s

Explanation:

a) To solve this problem let's start with the conservation of the moment, for this we define a system formed by the ball plus the dog, in this case all the forces are internal and the moment is conserved

We will write the data

     m₁ = 0.40 kg

     v₁₀ = 9.0 m / s

     m₂ = 14 kg

     v₂₀ = 0

Initial

     po = m₁ v₁₀

Final

     p_{f} = (m₁ + m₂) vf

     po = pf

     m₁ v₁₀ = (m₁ + m₂) v_{f}

      v_{f} = v₁₀ m₁ / (m₁ + m₂)

      v_{f} = 9.0 (0.40 / (0.40 +14)

      v_{f} = 0.25 m / s

b) This is the reference frame of the center of mass of the system in this case the speed of this frame is the speed of the center of mass

      u = 0.25 m / s

In the direction of movement of the ball

c) Let's calculate the kinetic energy in both moments

Initial

     K₀ = ½ m₁ v₁₀² +0

     K₀ = ½ 0.40 9 2

     K₀ = 16.2 J

Final

     K_{f}= ½ (m₁ + m₂) v_{f}2

      K_{f} = ½ (0.4 +14) 0.25 2

    K_{f} = 0.45 J

   

    ΔK = K₀ -  K_{f}

    ΔK = 16.2-0.445

    ΔK = 1575 J

These will transform internal system energy

d) In order to find the kinetic energy, we must first find the velocities of the individual in this reference system.

      v₁₀’= v₁₀ -u

      v₁₀’= 9 -.025

      v₁₀‘= 8.75 m / s

      v₂₀ ‘= v₂₀ -u

      v₂₀‘= - 0.25 m / s

      v_{f} ‘=   v_{f} - u

      v_{f} = 0

Initial

    K₀ = ½ m₁ v₁₀‘² + ½ m₂ v₂₀‘²

    Ko = ½ 0.4 8.75² + ½ 14.0 0.25²

    Ko = 15.31 + 0.4375

    K o = 15.75 J

Final

   k_{f} = ½ (m₁ + m₂) vf’²

  k_{f} = 0

All initial kinetic energy is transformed into internal energy in this reference system

You have an empty 20 oz. soda bottle and you blow air over the opening to excite a fundamental standing wave. Now, you slice off
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the standing wave in the second case is higher than that in the first case

Explanation:

The frequency and wavelength of a wave are related.

The moment you sliced the bottle, you've reduced the wavelength of the bottle.

When wavelength decreases, frequency increases and vice versa.

So, When frequency increases in the second case, more wave crests pass a fixed point each second. That means the wavelength shortens. So, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases. The opposite is also true—as frequency decreases, wavelength increases.
