A 912-kg car is being driven down a straight, level road at a constant speed of 31.5 m/s. When the driver sees a police cruiser

ahead, she removes her foot from the accelerator. After 8.00 is, the speed of the car is 24.6 m/s, which is the posted speed limit. What is the magnitude of the average net force acting on the car during the 8.00 s interval

Answer:

786.6 N

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 912 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s

final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s

time, t = 8 s

Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8

a = - 0.8625 m/s^2

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 912 x 0.8625

F = 786.6 N

Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.

What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 45m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -7 \ m/s^2}}

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}

The object accelerates <em>from</em> 45 meters per second <em>to </em>10 meters per second in 5 seconds. Therefore,

v_f=10 \ m/s \\v_i= 45 \ m/s \\t= 5 \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

a= \frac{ 10 \ m/s - 45 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Solve the numerator.

a= \frac { -35 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Divide.

a= -7 \ m/s/s

a= -7 \ m/s^2

The acceleration of the object is -7 meters per square second. The acceleration is negative because the object's velocity decreases and the object slows down.

1.)Which is the correctly balanced equation?
iVinArrow [24]
A. The correctly balanced equation is that in which the number of atoms of a certain element at the left-hand side is similar to that in the right hand side or the reactant side and product side, respectively. From the given equation, the answer would be,

       C. Cl2 + 2NaI --> 2NaCl + I2


B. In the given chemical reaction above, heat is emitted such that it appears in the product side of the equation. Hence, this is an example of a combustion reaction. 

C. Similar with the reasoning in letter A, the answer to this item is,
          B. 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy
Contact [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J

A heat engine does 200 j of work per cycle while exhausting 600 j of heat to the cold reservoir. what is the engine's thermal ef
AveGali [126]
The thermal efficiency of an engine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}
where
W is the work done by the engine
Q is the heat absorbed by the engine to do the work

In this problem, the work done by the engine is W=200 J, while the heat exhausted is Q=600 J, so the efficiency of the machine is
\eta= \frac{W}{Q}= \frac{200 J}{600 J}=0.33 = 33 \%
