A car starts from rest at a stop sign. It accelerates at 3.8 m/s 2 m/s2 for 6.0 s, coasts for 1.6 ss , and then slows down at a

rate of 3.3 m/s 2 m/s2 for the next stop sign.
How far apart are the stop signs?

To solve this problem we will start by calculating the distance traveled while relating the first acceleration in the given time. From that acceleration we will calculate its final speed with which we will calculate the distance traveled in the second segment. With this speed and the acceleration given, we will proceed to calculate the last leg of its route.

Expression for the first distance is

s_1 = ut +\frac{1}{2} at^2

s_1 = 0+\frac{1}{2} (3.8)(6)^2

s_1 = 68.4m

The expression for the final speed is

v = v_0 +at

v = 0+(3.8)(6)

v = 22.8m/s

Then the distance becomes as follows

s_2 = vt

s_2 = (22.8)(1.6)

s_2 = 36.48m

The expression for the distance at last sop is

v_1^2=v_0^2 +2as_3

22.8^2 = 0+2(3.3)s_3

s_3 =78.7636m

Therefore the required distance between the signs is,

S = s_1+s_2+s_3

S = 68.4+36.48+78.76

S = 183.64m

Therefore the total distance between signs is 183.54m

The easiest way to answer this question is just to get the answer first. The answer is A with the added comment that no chemical reaction has taken place.

Layered means that the chemicals are not soluble in one another. B is not the answer.

C is eliminated by what what was said about A.

D a solution is not a pure substance (singular) by itself. There are at least 2 chemicals together.

Using monochromatic light of 410 nm wavelength, a single thin slit forms a diffraction pattern, with the first minimum at an ang
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

c. 307 nm

Explanation:

angular position of first dark fringe =  λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(40 x π ) / 180 = 410 / d

angular position of second  dark fringe =  2 x λ / d ,   λ is wavelength and  d is width of slit .

(60 x π ) / 180 = 2 x λ / d

Dividing these equations

60 / 40 =  2 x λ / 410

λ = 307.5 nm.

A student pulls a 2.0-kg object to the left with a force of 30 N, while another student is pulling against the object in the opp
alex41 [277]

Answer:

5 m/s2, left

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which  states that:

\sum F=ma

where:

\sum F is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, we have:

\sum F=30 N - 20 N = 10 N (to the left) is the net force on the object

m = 2.0 kg is the mass

So, the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{10}{2.0}=5.0 m/s^2

in the same direction as the force (left).
