Answer:

9.43 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the final kinetic energy of the car.

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done on the car is equal to its change in kinetic energy:

W=K_f - K_i

where

W = -36.733 J is the work done on the car (negative because the car is slowing down, so the work is done in the direction opposite to the motion of the car)

K_f is the final kinetic energy

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy

Solving,

K_f = K_i + W = 66,120 + (-36,733)=29,387 J

Now we can find the final speed of the car by using the formula for kinetic energy

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 661 kg is the mass of the car

v is its final speed

Solving for v, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.43 m/s

A test car starts from rest on a horizontal circular track of 115-m radius and increases its speed at a uniform rate to reach 90
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a= 3.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

magnitude of total acceleration = sqrt{radial acceleration^2+tangential acceleration^2}.

we know that tangential acceleration a_t= change in velocity /time taken

now 90 km/h = 25 m/s

a_t = 25/17 = 1.47 m/s^2.

radial acceleration a_r = v^2/r

v= a_t×t = 1.47×13 = 19.11 m/s

a_r = 19.11^2/115=  3.175

now,

a= \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}

a= \sqrt{1.47^2+3.175^2}

a= 3.49 m/s^2

These are the types of attractions found between molecules. Their strength determines the state of the substance at room tempera
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Intermolecular forces

Explanation:

The force of attractions that act between molecules are called intermolecular forces.

Their nature is electromagnetic, this means that they are just an expression of the electromagnetic force.

One example of intermolecular force is the ionic bond: this type of bond occurs when there are two ions, one positively charged and the other one negatively charged, and they are attracted by each other due to the electrostatic force, which therefore creates a bond between them.

Other types of intermolecular forces include:

Hydrogen bond

Ion-dipole forces

Van der Waals forces

The strength of these intermolecular forces determine the state of the substance. In fact, in solids, these forces are very strong, so that the molecules are strongly bond to each other and they cannot move freely, but only vibrate about their fixed position. On the other hand, in gases, these forces are very weak, therefore the molecules are able to move freely away from each other.
