Ms. Terry Novel is driving down the highway at 26 m/s when the driver sees the light ahead turn yellow. It takes the driver 0.3

s to react and the maximum braking acceleration of her car is 5.3 m/s2. If the light stays yellow for a total of 4 seconds, how far does she travel in this time?

Answer:

67.8 m.

Explanation:

For 0.3 sec which is the response time , he will keep on moving with velocity

undiminished or at 26 m/s .

Distance travelled during this period

= 26 x .3 =7.8 m

For rest of the time ie during 4 - .3 = 3.7 s , he decelerates with deceleration of 5.3 ms⁻²  and initial velocity of 26 m/s

s = u t - 1/2 a t²

s = 26 x 3.7 - .5 x 5.3 x 3.7 x 3.7

= 96.2 - 36.28

= 60 m approx.

Total distance travelled

=60 + 7.8 = 67.8 m.

Write the meaning of an object has 2 meter length
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The object has 2 meter length. This means the length is any quantity with a dimension distance. The definition of the length is how long something is or amount of space. In the given data it is stated that, the object is something that has a length of 2 meter.  

<em>Let's take examples to understand. </em>

For example a thread or a table is an object which has a total length of 2 meters.  

Another example is something we are measuring it gives us a result of 2 meters of length by using a meter scale or meter tape.    

Length is a measure of distance and it is a fundamental quantity. Meter is a international system of units (SI units).

A car is driving 55 miles per hour east. The car changes direction to head north but still travels at 55 miles per hour. Which i
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Just as distance and displacement have distinctly different meanings (despite their similarities), so do speed and velocity. Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time. Contrast this to a slow-moving object that has a low speed; it covers a relatively small amount of distance in the same amount of time. An object with no movement at all has a zero speed.

You throw an 18.0 N rock into the air from ground level and observe that, when it is 15.0 m high, it is traveling upward at 17.0
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Vi = 24.14 m/s

Explanation:

If we apply Law of Conservation of Energy or Work-Energy Principle here, we get: (neglecting friction)

Loss in K.E of the Rock = Gain in P.E of the Rock

(1/2)(m)(Vi² - Vf²) = mgh

Vi² - Vf² = 2gh

Vi² = Vf² + 2gh

Vi = √(Vf² + 2gh)

where,

Vi = Rock's Speed as it left the ground = ?

Vf = Final Speed = 17 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height of rock = 15 m

Therefore,

Vi = √[(17 m/s)² + 2(9.8 m/s²)(15 m)]

Vi = √583 m²/s²

<u>Vi = 24.14 m/s</u>
