The driver of a 1750 kg car traveling on a horizontal road at 110 km/h suddenly applies the brakes. Due to a slippery pavement,

the friction of the road on the tires of the car, which is what slows down the car, is 25% of the weight of the car. What is the acceleration of the car? How many meters does it travel before stopping under these conditions?

Answer: a=-2.4525 m/s^2

d=s=190.3 m

Explanation:The only force that is stopping the car and causing deceleration is the frictional force Fr

Fr = 25% of weight

W=mg

W=1750*9.81

W=17167.5

Hence

Fr=\frac{25}{100} * -17167.5\\\\Fr=-4291.875 N

Frictional force is negative as it acts in opposite direction

According to newton second law of motion

F=ma

hence

a=Fr/m

a=-4291.875/1750\\a=-2.4525

given

u= 110 km/h

u=110*1000/3600

u=30.55 m/s

to get t we know that final velocity v=0

v^2=u^2+2as\\0=30.55^2-2*2.4525*s\\s=190.34m

A fish scale, consisting of a spring with spring constant k=200N/m, is hung vertically from the ceiling. A 2.6 kg fish is attach
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

The fish is initially at rest and it is also at rest when the spring is fully stretched at the maximum distance.

Change in gravity potential energy = change in spring potential energy

mgh = 1/2kh^2

Assume gravity constant g is 10m/s^2

2.6*10*h = 1/2*200*h^2

100h^2 - 26h = 0

2h(50h - 13) = 0

h = 0 or h = 13/50 = 0.65m

h = 0 is before the spring is stretched

So the maximum distance is 0.65m.

How did Aristotle's inability to detect parallax lead him to propose a geocentric model of the Solar System.
sasho [114]
He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary. This erroneous assumption was because at the time he had no way of knowing that celestial objects were so far away that their parallax angles were too small to detect.
