A VW beetle goes from zero to 27m/s in 7.6 seconds. What is the acceleration?

1 answer:

7 0

Initial speed(u)=0m/s
Final speed(v)= 27m/s
Time(t)=7.6s
Use the equation of motion: v = u + at
27 = 0 + a(7.6)
27/7.6 = a
a = 3.55 m/s^2 (3 s.f)

An elevator (mass 4125 kg) is to be designed so that the maximum acceleration is 0.0400g.

The way to do this is very easy so do 4125 x 2 = ? then the ? will be times by 2 again after the answer to both of those is your answer!!!

The 2.5-Mg van is traveling with a speed of 100 km>h when the brakes are applied and all four wheels lock. If the speed decre

Andrew [12]

Answer:

0.34

Explanation:

2.5 Mg = 2500 kg

The change in speed from 100 km/h to 40 km/h is

$\Delta v = 100 - 40 = 60 km/h = 60 * 1000 / (60 * 60) = 16.67 m/s$

The deceleration caused by friction force is the change in speed per unit of time

$a = \Delta v / \Delta t = 16.67 / 5 = 3.33 m/s^2$

Using Newton 2nd law we can calculate the friction force that caused this deceleration:

F = ma = 2500 * 3.33 = 8333 N

Let g = 9.8m/s2. Friction force is the product of normal (gravity) force and friction coefficient

$F = mg\mu$

$8333 = 2500*9.8\mu$

$\mu = \frac{8333}{2500 * 9.8} = 0.34$

When placed in a ________ solution, a cell will exhibit a net loss of water. the specific process by which the water leaves the

The specific process by which the water leaves the cell is called <u>plasmolysis.</u>

<h3>What is plasmolysis?</h3>

Plasmolysis is the process in which the cell loses the water that is present inside it because the environment of the cells produces pressure to build up inside the cell. If a cell is present in a hypertonic solution means that solvent concentration is lower in the surrounding solution, then water comes out of the cell while on the other hand, if a cell is present in a hypotonic solution in which the solvent concentration is higher in the surrounding solution, then water goes inside of the cell. The movement of liquid inside or outside of the cell occurs due to the semi-permeable membrane of the cell.

So we can conclude that the specific process by which the water leaves the cell is called <u>plasmolysis.</u>
