A solid has a definite meaning that there is only one shape there can be meaning a solid has a definite volume
The breaking distance consists of two parts. The first part is the first 0.5 seconds were no breaking occurs. Given values: t time, v₀ initial velocity:
x₁ = v₀*t
The second part occurs after t = 0,5s with the given acceleration: a = - 12 m/s²
were the final velocity is zero, v = 0 and the initial velocity v₀= 16m/s:
v = a*t + v₀ = 0 => v₀ = -a*t => t = v₀/-a
x₂ = 0.5*a*t² = 0.5*v°²/a
The total breaking distance is the sum of the two parts:
x = x₁ + x₂ = v₀* t + 0.5 * v₀² / a = 16 * 0.5 + 0.5 * 16² / 12 = 8 + 10,7 = 18,7
You can use this result to calculate the remaining distance. You can use the last equation to calculate the maximum speed you could have to avoid a collision.
Use x = 39m and solve for v₀.
The core difference is that heat deals with thermal energy, whereas temperature is more concerned with molecular kinetic energy. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy, whereas temperature is a property the object exhibits.
Answer:
g(h) = g ( 1 - 2(h/R) )
<em>*At first order on h/R*</em>
Explanation:
Hi!
We can derive this expression for distances h small compared to the earth's radius R.
In order to do this, we must expand the newton's law of universal gravitation around r=R
Remember that this law is:

In the present case m1 will be the mass of the earth.
Additionally, if we remember Newton's second law for the mass m2 (with m2 constant):

Therefore, we can see that

With a the acceleration due to the earth's mass.
Now, the taylor series is going to be (at first order in h/R):

a(R) is actually the constant acceleration at sea level
and

Therefore:

Consider that the error in this expresion is quadratic in (h/R), and to consider quadratic correctiosn you must expand the taylor series to the next power:
