1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago

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

What is the formula to find PE and KE ?
Lapatulllka [165]
PE stands for Potential Energy. It is the stored energy in an object due to its position with respect to some reference. It is expressed in Joules.

P.E = m * g * h    OR  P.E. = mgh

m - mass of the body
g - acceleration due to gravity
h - height attained due to the body's displacement.

K.E. stands for Kinetic Energy. It is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion.

K.E = 1/2 mv²    where m = mass of the body; v = velocity with which the body is moving.

HELP ASAP! <br>why is rolling friction much smaller than sliding friction? Also give an example.​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Rolling friction is much smaller than sliding friction because Rolling friction is considerably less than sliding friction as there is no work done against the body that is rolling by the force of friction. For a body to start rolling a small amount of friction is required at the point where it rests on the other surface, else it would slide instead of roll.

Rolling Friction example: Anything with weels (cars,skateboards) or a ball rooling.

Sliding Friction example: Bicycle brakes,skinning your knee walking,writing.

What are 3 things that can affect gravity?
den301095 [7]
The force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled , the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. Increases , the force of gravity decreases.

A car starts from rest and accelerated at a rate of 9m/s squared for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

58.5 meters

Explanation:

1. Find your formula. Use distance = speed x time for this problem

2. Plug in the given information. d (for distance) = 9m/s^2 * 6.5 s

3. Multiply number AND units. d = 58.5m

4. Check to make sure units & numbers make sense. In this case check that the answer is a lot bigger than what we stated with and that our units go with distance
