A racing car reaches a speed of 42 m/s. It then begins a uniform negative acceleration, using its parachute and braking system,

and comes to rest 5.5 s later. Find the distance that the car travels during braking

As per the question the initial speed of the car [ u] is 42 m/s.

The car applied its brake and comes to rest after 5.5 second.

The final velocity [v] of the car will be zero.

From the equation of kinematics we know that

                                         v=u+at [ here a stands for acceleration]

                                         0=42 +5.5a

                                         a =\frac{-42}{5.5} m/s^2

                                          a= -7.64 m/s^2

Here a is taken negative as it the car is decelerating uniformly.

We are asked to calculate the stopping distance .

From equation of kinematics we know that

                                              S=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2  [here S is the distance]

                                                      = 42*5.5 +\frac{1}{2} [-7.64] [5.5]^2 m

                                                       =115.445 m      [ans]

dexar [7]

A car of mass 1535 kg collides head-on with a parked truck of mass 2000 kg. Spring mounted bumpers ensure that the collision is essentially elastic. If the velocity of the truck is 17 km/h (in the same direction as the car's initial velocity) after the collision, what was the initial speed of the car <u>20kmh</u>

<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

A collision in physics is any situation in which two or more bodies quickly exert forces on one another. Despite the fact that the most common usage of the word "collision" refers to situations in which two or more objects clash violently, the scientific usage of the word makes no such assumptions.

The following are a few instances of physical encounters that scientists might classify as collisions:

  • Legs of an insect are said to collide with a leaf when it falls on one.
  • Every contact of a cat's paws with the ground while it strides across a lawn is seen as a collision, as is every brush of its fur with a blade of grass.

Electronics and inhabitants of the International Space Station generate a significant amount of thermal energy that the station
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

4462.0927 W

Explanation:

\epsilon = Emissivity of the panel = 1

\sigma = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.67\times 10^{-8}\ W/m^2K^4

T = Temperature = (273.15+6)

Area of the panel is given by

A=2\times 1.8\times 3.6\\\Rightarrow A=12.96\ m^2

The power radiated is given by

P=\epsilon \sigma AT^4\\\Rightarrow P=1\times 5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 12.96\times (273.15+6)^4\\\Rightarrow P=4462.0927\ W

The power radiated from each panel is 4462.0927 W
