A car that is traveling in a straight line at 40 km/h can brake to a stop within 20 m. If the same car is traveling at 120 km/h

what would be its stopping distance in this case? Assume the braking force is the same in both cases and ignore air resistance.

Answer:

180 m

Explanation:

Case 1.

U = 40 km/h = 11.1 m/s, V = 0, s = 20 m

Let a be the acceleration.

Use third equation of motion

V^2 = u^2 + 2 as

0 = 11.1 × 11.1 - 2 × a × 20

a = 3.08 m/s^2

Case 2.

U = 220 km/h = 33.3 m/s, V = 0

a = 3.08 m/s^2

Let the stopping distance be x.

Again use third equation of motion

0 = 33.3 × 33.3 - 2 × 3.08 × x

X = 180 m

Earthquakes typically occur
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

<h3><u><em>Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little. ... When the rocks break, the earthquake occurs.</em></u></h3>

Five race cars speed toward the finish line at the Jasper County Speedway. The table lists each car’s speed in meters/second. If
nekit [7.7K]
We have: v = d/t
From the expression, we conclude speed is indirectly proportional to speed.
So, the car which will take longer time must have the smallest speed. Among all the options Car C has the smallest speed. So, it would be your answer.

In short, Your Answer would be Option C) Car C will take longer time than any other.

Hope this helps!

The 1994 Winter Olympics included the aerials competition in skiing. In this event skiers speed down a ramp that slopes sharply
kykrilka [37]

Answer: Got It!

<em>Explanation:  </em>let s = speed at launch

v = 0 at top = s sin 63 - g t

so at top

t = s sin 63/g = .0909 s

h = 13.6 = s sin 63 t - 4.9 t^2

13.6 = .081s^2 - .0405 s^2

s^2 = 336

s = 18.3 m/s
