ENERGY SAVERS RACE, BRAIN BURNER. This question is about solar cars at the Chuck Norris Institute of Technology, CNIT, in Ocala,

Florida. In one race, a silicon-dioxide crystal powers a car (mass = 120 kg) from rest to a top speed of 10 m/sec in a time of 1.2 sec.
Question: For what distance does the solar car accelerate to get to top speed?
a. 6.0 m
b. 150 m
c. 2.0 m
d. 9.8 m
e. 44.1 m

Answer:

a) d = 6.0 m

Explanation:

Since car is accelerating at uniform rate then here we can say that the distance moved by the car with uniform acceleration is given as

d = \frac{(v_f + v_i)}{2} \times t

here we know that

v_f = 10 m/s

v_i = 0

t = 1.2 s

now we will have

d = \frac{(10 + 0)}{2}\times 1.2

d = 5 \times 1.2

d = 6.0 m

Suppose you are driving in a convertible with the top down at constant speed. You point a rifle straight upward and fire it. In
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

(c) in the barrel of the rifle

Explanation:

When we are moving in a convertible with constant speed so as per inertia all the objects are moving with same speed as that the speed of convertible.

So here we can say that bullet when shot from the rifle then its speed is same as that of convertible in horizontal direction

So here we can say that if air friction is absent then bullet will move same horizontal distance as the distance moved by you in the convertible

so after it it will reach again at the same position then the displacement of you and bullet is same in horizontal direction so we can say that correct answer will be

(c) in the barrel of the rifle

A block of mass m slides with a speed vo on a frictionless surface and collides with another mass M which is initially at rest.
Rudik [331]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. Momentum can be defined as the product between mass and velocity. We will depart to facilitate the understanding of the demonstration, considering the initial and final momentum separately, but for conservation, they will be later matched. Thus we will obtain the value of the mass. Our values will be defined as

m_1 = m

m_2 = M

v_{1i} =v_0

v_{2i} = 0

Initial momentum will be

P_i = m_iv_{1i}+m_2v_{2i}

P_i = mv_0

After collision

v_{1f} = v_{2f} = \frac{v_0}{3}

Final momentum

P_f = (m_1+m_2)(\frac{v_0}{3})

P_f = (m+M)(\frac{v_0}{3})

From conservation of momentum

P_f = P_i

Replacing,

(m+M)(\frac{v_0}{3})=mv_0

(m+M)\frac{1}{3} = m

m+M=3m

M=3m-m

M=2m

Sarah heated two cubes of aluminum to 50°C. Cube A has a volume of four cubic centimeters. Cube B has a volume of two cubic cent
dalvyx [7]

Cube A has more thermal energy than cube B.

Explanation:

It is obvious that cube A has gained more thermal energy compared to cube B.

From the description of the experiment, both cubes had the same temperature which is 50°C. Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body.

Thermal energy is a form of energy expressed as heat in a body.

Cube A has a higher volume because it has gained more thermal energy than Cube B.

Thermal energy increases the rate of vibration of atoms in the crystal lattice of the solid. The more the thermal energy, the more the vibration. This is  why Cube A has expanded so much and changed volume.
