Answer:

3.2 seconds

Explanation:

When the cars collide, they have the same position.

x₁ = x₂

-4 + 1.1t = 8.8 − 2.9t

4t = 12.8

t = 3.2

What is equal to the kinetic energy of a car with a mass of 0.5t (tonne) if it travels evenly at 70 km/h?
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Formula for kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2 so that answer should most probably be 94521.6J

A wave traveling in water has a frequency of 500.0 Hz and a wavelength of 3.00 m. What is the speed of the wave?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

1500 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that for a wave,

Speed = frequency x wavelength

here we are given frequency = 500 Hz and wavelength = 3m

simply substitute into above equation

Speed = 500 Hz x 3m

= 1500 m/s

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of 17ft/s2 as the car skids 285ft to a stop.
ozzi

1) 5.79 s

2) 98.4 ft/s

Explanation:

1)

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion (it means it travels with constant acceleration), so we can find the time it takes for the car to stop by using the following suvat equation:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance travelled

v is the final velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration of the car

In this problem we have:

s = 285 ft is the distance travelled

a=-17 ft/s^2 is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)

v = 0 ft/s is the final velocity of the car, since it comes to a stop

Solving for t, we find:

t=\sqrt{\frac{-2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{-2(285)}{-17}}=5.79 s

2)

The initial speed of the car can be found by using another suvat equation, namely:

v=u+at

where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In this problem, we have:

v = 0 is the final speed of the car

a=-17 ft/s^2 is the acceleration of the car (negative since the car is slowing down)

t = 5.79 s is the total time of motion (found in part 1)

Therefore, the initial speed of the car is:

u=v-at=0-(-17)(5.79)=98.4 ft/s
