The acceleration of the car will be needed in order to calculate the time. It is important to consider that the final speed is equal to zero:

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ad\ \to\ a = \frac{-v_0^2}{2d} = -\frac{21.8^2\ m^2/s^2}{2\cdot 99\ m} = -2.4\frac{m}{s^2}

We can clear time in the speed equation:

v = v_0 + at\ \to\ t = \frac{-v_0}{a} = \frac{-21.8\ m/s}{-2.4\ m/s^2} = \bf 9.08\ s

If you find some mistake in my English, please tell me know.

A stationary boat bobs up and down with a period of 2.4 s when it encounters the waves from a moving boat.
lapo4ka [179]
It seems like the question is asking for the frequency.
Given: 
Time period (T) = 2.4 sec

Frequency (f) =? 

We know that the formula for frequency is:

Frequency (f) = 1/time period (T) 

= 1 / 2.4 s 

= 0.42 Hz. is the frequency for this problem.

Discuss why the article says the fact that we’re in our universe complicates our understanding of the expansion of the universe.
MArishka [77]
<span>Because of our perception of the universe from inside the universe, we are unable to see how and towards what the universe is expanding. Also, our understanding of it is further complicated because we are moving as part of the expansion, thus distorting our perception of it.</span>

What should be angle between force and displacement to get the maximum work​
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

0°

Explanation:

The angle between force and displacement should be 0° in order to get the maximum work done.

 

 Work done  = Force  x dcosФ°  

  Ф is the angle between force and displacement

When Ф is zero, the maximum work done is attained

When Ф is 90, the minimum work is done, in fact, work done is 0

lightning and thunder both occur at the same time why do you see the Lightning before you hear the thunder
denis23 [38]

Because the light from it travels to you about 874 thousand times
as fast as the sound does, so the hearing part falls behind the seeing
part.
