Answer:

It takes the car 2.5 s to slow down to a final speed of 10.0 m/s.

The car has moved 31.25 m during the braking period.

Explanation:

Assuming that motion is a straight line and knowing that the accelaration is a constant (-2.0 m/s²), these equations apply:

v(t) = v0 +a*t

X(t) = X0 + v0*t + 1/2*a*t²

where:

v(t) = velocity at time "t".

v0 = initial velocity.

a = acceleration.

t = time.

X(t) = position at time "t"

X0 = initial position

Given data:

v0 = 15.0 m/s

a = 2.0 m/s²

v(t) = 10.0 m/s

We need to find "t" at which the speed is 10 m/s.

From the equation of velocity above:

v(t) = v0 + a*t

solving the equation for "t"

v(t) - v0 = a*t

(v(t) - v0)/a = t

(10 m/s - 15 m/s) / (-2m/s²) = t

2.5 s = t

Now that we know how long it takes to slow down to a speed of 10 m/s, we can calculate how far has the car moved in that period using the equation for position at a given time:

X(t) = X0 + v0*t + 1/2*a*t²

Since we only want to know how many meters has the car moved during 2.5 s with an acceleration of -2m/s², we can make X0(initial position) = 0.

Then:

X(2.5 s) = 0 m + 15 m/s * 2.5 s + 1/2 * (-2m/s²)* (2.5 s)²

X(2.5 s) = 37.5 m + (-6.25 m) = 31.25 m

Oliga [24]

Answer:

0.68 m

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in air is a product of frequency and wavelength. Taking speed of sound in air as 340 m/s

V=frequency*wavelength

Then wavelength is given by 350/500=0.68 m

Therefore, to repeat constructive interference at the listener's ear, a distance of 0.68 m is needed

Westkost [7]

Answer:

There are six main components, or parts, of weather. They are <u>temperature, atmospheric pressure, wind, humidity, precipitation, and cloudiness</u>. Together, these components describe the weather at any given time. These changing components, along with the knowledge of atmospheric processes, help meteorologists—scientists who study weather—forecast what the weather will be in the near future.
