A truck driver sees a dog running into the road. He immediately brakes. Describe the energy transfers in the truck as it comes t

o a stop.
Physics
1 answer:
Eduardwww [97]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: find the answer in the explanation as kinetic energy converts to potential energy.

Explanation:

Before the truck driver sees a dog running into the road, The mechanical energy state of the truck will be kinetic energy at maximum.

Immediately he applied the brakes, the mechanical energy of the truck will be combination of kinetic energy and potential energy.

The kinetic energy will gradually decrease as potential energy continue to increase till it reaches maximum potential energy.

The truck will come to a stop at maximum potential energy

As you stand near a railroad track, a train passes by at a speed of 31.7 m/s while sounding its horn at a frequency of 218 Hz. W
Darya [45]

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of train horn, f = 218 Hz

Speed of train, v_t = 31.7 m/s

The speed of sound, V = 344 m/s (say)

The speed of the observed person, V_o=0\ m/s

(a) When the train approaches you, the Doppler's effect gives the frequency as follows :

f'=f(\dfrac{V}{V-v_t})\\\\f'=218\times (\dfrac{344}{344-31.7})\\\\f'=240.12\ Hz

(b) When the train moves away from you, the Doppler's effect gives the frequency as follows :

f'=f(\dfrac{V}{V+v_t})\\\\f'=218\times (\dfrac{344}{344+31.7})\\\\f'=199.6\ Hz

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is heat acclimatization important?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Heat acclimatization :

   It is the biological adaptations or we can say that it coverts according to the present environment.It also reduce the strain and maintain the normal temperature and heart rate.Heat acclimatization also increase the comfort and reduce all the mental strain and also protect out liver ,muscles ,kidneys and brain fro the injury.

Two obiect accumulated a charge of
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

A. 181.24 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of hte electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by the equation

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

In this problem, we have:

q_1=4.5\mu C=4.5\cdot 10^{-6}C is the magnitude of the 1st charge

q_2=2.8\mu C=2.8\cdot 10^{-6}C is the magnitude of the 2nd charge

r = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m is the separation between the charges

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force is:

F=\frac{(9\cdot 10^9)(4.5\cdot 10^{-6})(2.8\cdot 10^{-6})}{(0.025)^2}=181.44 N

So, the closest answer is

A) 181.24 N

How will sunlight most likely affect a black shirt on a hot summer day? the temperature of the shirt will depend on how much sun
vladimir2022 [97]

The correct answer is option (C) the temperature of the shirt will increase because all wavelengths of light are absorbed by the shirt.

The relationship of heat and light

  • Heat is a measure of the movement of particles in the body, the more particles move, the warmer the body becomes.
  • When the body absorbs light radiation, its particles vibrate in accordance with the electromagnetic radiation's wavelengths, which causes an increase in the temperature with the increase in particle movement.
  • The more wavelengths of radiation absorbed by an object, produces more heat.
