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.
The electronic configuration of Fe2+ is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d6 and Fe3+ is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5. Fe2+ contains 2 fewer electrons compared to the electronic configuration of Fe.
Time period of a simple pendulum is not affected by the mass of the bob. As we know, . There is no factor of mass affecting when we derived the equation. The basic reason behind the time period is not affected is because of mass dependence on angular acceleration. As the mass increases the acceleration increase and the Time Period remains constant.
