a car traveling at 40m/s starts to decelerate steadily. it comes to a complete stop in 12 seconds. what is the acceleration?

Physics

Arturiano [62]3 years ago
5 0

Velocity - v =0 m/s,

initial velocity - v(0)= 40 m/s

a - acceleration,

time - t = 12 s.

v=v(0) - at

0 = 40m/s - a*12s

12a = 40

a = 3.3 m/s²

A scientist wants to measure the relationship between humidity in the
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

<em>The most suitable testable question. in this case, would be that 'are there more home runs during the more humid months of the  summer?'</em>

Since the aim of the investigation is to find the relationship between humidity and the number of home runs, measuring the number of home runs during the more humid months in the summer and comparing the data to the number of home runs during the less humid months in the same summer would provide the answer.

<u>Only option D raises a valid question that is relevant to the aim of the investigation.</u>

What phase difference between two identical traveling waves, moving in the same direction along a stretched string, results in t
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the amplitude of individual wave be I and resultant amplitude be 1.703 I . Let the phase difference be Ф in terms of degree

From the formula of resultant vector

(1.703I)² = I² + I² +  2 I² cosФ

2.9 I² = 2I² + 2 I² cosФ

.9I² = 2 I² cosФ

cosФ = .9 / 2

= .45

Ф = 63.25 .

What quantity of heat is needed to convert 1 kg of ice at -13 degrees C to steam at 100 degrees C?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ

Explanation:

We have

     heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g

     heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g

     specific heat of ice = 2.09 J/g·°C

     specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g·°C

     specific heat of steam = 2.09 J/g·°C

Here wee need to convert 1 kg ice from -13°C to vapor at 100°C

First the ice changes to -13°C from 0°C , then it changes to water, then its temperature increases from 0°C to 100°C, then it changes to steam.

Mass of water = 1000 g

Heat energy required to change ice temperature from -13°C to 0°C

          H₁ = mcΔT = 1000 x 2.09 x 13 = 27.17 kJ

Heat energy required to change ice from 0°C to water at 0°C

          H₂ = mL = 1000 x 334 = 334 kJ

Heat energy required to change water temperature from 0°C to 100°C  

          H₃ = mcΔT = 1000 x 4.18 x 100 = 418 kJ    

Heat energy required to change water from 100°C to steam at 100°C  

          H₄ = mL = 1000 x 2257 = 2257 kJ    

Total heat energy required

          H = H₁ +  H₂ + H₃ + H₄ = 27.17 + 334 + 418 +2257 = 3036.17 kJ

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ
