An automobile travels along a straight road at 15.65 m/s through a 11.18 m/s speed zone. A police car observed the automobile. At the instant that the two vehicles are abreast of each other, the police car starts to pursue the automobile at a constant acceleration of 1.96 m/s2 . The motorist noticed the police car in his rear view mirror 12 s after the police car started the pursuit and applied his brakes and decelerates at 3.05 m/s2
Find the total time required for the police car to over take the automobile.
Answer:
15.02 sec
Explanation:
The total time required for the police car to overtake the automobile is related to the distance covered by both cars which is equal from instant point of abreast.
So; we can say :

By using the second equation of motion to find the distance S;





where ;
u = 0





Recall that:



= 46.68 - 7.85 t -2.505 t² = 0
Solving by using quadratic equation;
t = -6.16 OR t = 3.02
Since we can only take consideration of the value with a positive integer only; then t = 3.02 secs
From the question; The motorist noticed the police car in his rear view mirror 12 s after the police car started the pursuit;
Therefore ; the total time required for the police car to over take the automobile = 12 s + 3.02 s
Total time required for the police car to over take the automobile = 15.02 sec
Answer:
a. W = 51,194.54 kJ
b. W = 102,390 kJ
c. W = 153,585 kJ
Explanation:


a. the ground at 15°C.
=20°C = 273 K + 20 = 293 K
=15°C = 273 K + 15 = 288 K


W = 51,194.54 kJ
b. a pond at 10°C.
=10°C = 273 K + 10 = 283 K

W = 102,390 kJ
c. the outside air at 5°C.
=5°C = 273 K + 5 = 278 K

W = 153,585 kJ
Hope this helps!

Answer:
0.028 kg per Seconds; 8.4
Explanation:
N-S, 4 x 100 = 400 m^2, concentration 5/400= 0.0125 kg/s
E-W 4 x 100 =400 m^2 , => 10/400 =0.025 kg/s
(0.0125^2 + 0.025^2)^(1/2) =0.028 kg/s
in 5 minutes = 5 x 60 x 0.028 =8.4
