It is friction that provides the force for a car to accelerate, so for high performance cars the factor that limits acceleration

isn't the engine; it's the tires. For typical rubber-on-concrete friction, what is the shortest time in which a car could accelerate from 0 to 600 mph?Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

a bus starting from rest moves with a uniform acceleration of 0.1 metre per second square for 2 minutes find the speed acquired

blondinia [14]

S ?
U 0m/s
V ?
A 0.1m/s^2
T 2min (120 sec)

S=ut+0.5at^2
S=0(120 sec)+0.5(0.1m/s^2)(120 sec)^2
S=720m

Distance double 720m*2=1440m

V^2=u^2+2as
V^2=(0)^2+2(0.1 m/s^2)(1440m)
V^2=288
V= square root of 288=12 root 2=16.97 to 2 decimal places

Steam enters a well-insulated nozzle at 200 lbf/in.2 , 500F, with a velocity of 200 ft/s and exits at 60 lbf/in.2 with a velocit

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

$386.2^{\circ}F$

Explanation:

We are given that

$P_1=200lbf/in^2$

$P_2=60lbf/in^2$

$v_1=200ft/s$

$v_2=1700ft/s$

$T_1=500^{\circ}F$

$Q=0$

$C_p=1BTU/lb^{\circ}F$

We have to find the exit temperature.

By steady energy flow equation

$h_1+v^2_1+Q=h_2+v^2_2$

$C_pT_1+\frac{P^2_1}{25037}+Q=C_pT_2+\frac{P^2_2}{25037}$

$1BTU/lb=25037ft^2/s^2$

Substitute the values

$1\times 500+\frac{(200)^2}{25037}+0=1\times T_2+\frac{(1700)^2}{25037}$

$500+1.598=T_2+115.4$

$T_2=500+1.598-115.4$

$T_2=386.2^{\circ}F$

A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it

TiliK225 [7]

Acceleration = (change of speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (22 - 4) = 18 m/s.
Time for the change = 3 sec.

Acceleration = 18/3 = 6 m/s per second.

An 80-cm-long steel string with a linear density of 1.0 g/m is under 200 N tension. It is plucked and vibrates at its fundamenta

icang [17]

Answer:

Wavelength of the sound wave that reaches your ear is 1.15 m

Explanation:

The speed of the wave in string is

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }$

where T= 200 N is tension in the string , $\mu$ =1.0 g/m is the linear mass density

$v=\sqrt{\frac{200}{1\times 10^{-3} }$

$v=447.2 m/s$

Wavelength of the wave in the string is

$\lambda =2L=2\times 0.8=1.6 m$

The frequency is

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda} \\f=\frac{447.2}{1.6}\\f=298.25 Hz$

The required wavelength pf the sound wave that reaches the ear is( take velocity of air v=344 m/s)

$\lambda=\frac{v_{air}}{f} \\\lambda=\frac{344}{298.25} \\\lambda=1.15 m$

The speed of the wave depends on what?

kolbaska11 [484]

The speed of a mechanical wave depends on the mechanical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

The speed of an electromagnetic wave depends on the electrical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

It's pretty well unanimous for choice <em>A</em> .
