An initially motionless test car is accelerated uniformly to 120 km/h in 8.28 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in

contact with the faux fawn for 0.815 s, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 71.0 km/h. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car before the collision

Answer:

The value is   a =  4.0 \ m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

  The velocity  is  a =  120 \  km/h =  [tex]\frac{120 *  1000}{3600} =  33.3 \  m/s[/tex]

  The time taken is t  =  8.28 \  s

    The  time taken for contact is  t_c  =  0.815 \  s

     The  velocity of the of the car after contact is v_c =  71.0 \  km/h = [tex]\frac{71 *1000}{3600} =  19.7 2 \  m/s[/tex]

From the equation of kinematics we have that  

       v =  u  + at

Here   u =  0 \ m/s  since the car is initially motionless

=>    33.3 =  0  + a *  8.28

=>    a =  4.0 \ m/s^2

How many electrons will a single atom of sulfur with no charge and no bonds have in its valence shell?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

There are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

Explanation:

Sulphur is a non-mettalic element which is in the period 3 and group .6on the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 16 and a Mass number of 32. Atomic number tells you the number of electrons in an electrically neutral atom. It has the electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4.

The orbitals have a formula 2n^2 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3 etc.

In the shells, n = 1 so there are 2 electrons. For n = 2, 2*(2)^2 = 8 electrons. So, 16 - (8 + 2) = 6 electrons in the 3 shell (outermost shell)

Therefore from the electronic confriguration above, there are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

Which of the following is an example of work being done on an object?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

d. All of these

Explanation:

work is said to be done when a force is applied to an object through a certain distance. the SI unit of workdone is joules or newton per meter

mathematically

workdone = force x distance.

from the answers,  work is being done because there is force applied in a certain distance.

  • from wagon is used to carry vegetables from a garden.
  • pulley is used to get water from a well.
  • hammer is used to remove a nail from a wall.
