A self-driving car traveling along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a spe

ed of 32.0 m/s. Then the vehicle travels for 53.0 s at constant speed until the brakes are applied, stopping the vehicle in a uniform manner in an additional 5.00 s. (a) How long is the self-driving car in motion (in s)? s (b) What is the average velocity of the self-driving car for the motion described? (Enter the magnitude in m/s.) m/s

Answer:

t = 75.4 s

v = 26.9 m/s

Explanation:

Part1 :

v1 = 0 m/s

v2 = 32 m/s

a = 2 m/s2

The time needed to reach the final speed is:

v2 = v1 + a*t

32 = 0 + 2*t

t = 16 s

Part 2:

constant speed of 32 m/s for 53 s

Part 3:

v2 = 32 m/s

v3 = 0 m/s

t = 5 s

The acceleration is negative because the car is stopping:

v3 = v2 + a*t

0 = 32 + a*5

a = - 6.4 m/s

a) The total time the car is in motion is:

total time = 16 + 53 + 6.4 = 75.4 s

b) For the average speed you can calculate the total distance and divide it by the total time for an easier way

Part 1

d = (32+0)/2 * 16 = 256 m

Part 2

d = 32 * 53 = 1696 m

Part 3

d = (32+0)/2 * 5 = 80 m

Average speed:

v = (256 + 1696 + 80)/75.4 = 26.9 m/s

When refrigeration can’t work how does the molecules work to keep it cool
Simora [160]
The compressor constricts the refrigerant vapor, raising its pressure, and pushes it into the coils on the outside of the refrigerator. 2. When the hot gas in the coils meets the cooler air temperature of the kitchen, it becomes a liquid. ... The refrigerant absorbs the heat inside the fridge, cooling down the air.

Which telescope would be better viewing a faint, distant star? Why?
grin007 [14]
Reflecting telescope. Reflecting telescopes tend to have larger objective (due to the use of mirrors, mirrors are a lot cheaper than lenses) and have the ability to collect more light, while refracting telescopes are limited to objective lenses with smaller diameters due to their structural limitations (chromatic abbreviation, for example). Therefore, reflecting telescopes should be better at viewing faint distant stars

The sun produces large amounts of energy. By what process does the sun produce energy?
AlladinOne [14]
The sun produces energy by converting gravitational potential energy into radiation via quantum processes in the nucleus of the atoms.

Since the mass of the sun and it's temperature are not quite enough to generate nuclear FUSION on their own, quantum tunneling is the primary process by which nuclear fusion occurs in our sun, SOL. FISSION also occurs as a result of this fusion.

Additionally, gravitational potential energy is also the reason that supernovae are so bright. Cool!

The gravitational force between two objects will be greatest in which of the following situations?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational law states that, the force of attraction or repulsion between two masses is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

So,

Let the masses be M1 and M2,

F ∝ M1 × M2

Let the distance apart be R

F ∝ 1 / R²

Combining the two equation

F ∝ M1•M2 / R²

G is the constant of proportional and it is called gravitational constant

F = G•M1•M2 / R²

So, to increase the gravitational force, the masses to the object must be increased and the distance apart must be reduced.

So, option c is correct

C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.
