A 1200 kg car collides with a 160 kg deer (don't worry, the deer survives and goes on to cause several more car crashes). The co

llision results in an acceleration ("deceleration") of 2.5 m/(sec)^2 for the car. Find the acceleration of the deer during the collision.

Answer:

18.75

Explanation:

p=mv, where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity. For the car:

p=1200*2.5=3000

For the deer:

3000=160*v

v=18.75m/s

Hope this helps!

1)Light of wavelength 588.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 55.5 cm from the slit
Talja [164]

Answer:

These are Diffraction Grating Questions.

Q1. To determine the width of the slit in micrometers (μm), we will need to use the expression for distance along the screen from the center maximum to the nth minimum on one side:  

Given as  

y = nDλ/w                                                       Eqn 1

where  

w = width of slit  

D = distance to screen  

λ = wavelength of light  

n = order number  

Making x the subject of the formula gives,  

w = nDλ/y  

Given  

y = 0.0149 m  

D = 0.555 m  

λ = 588 x 10-9 m  

and n = 3

w = 6.6x10⁻⁵m

Hence, the width of the slit w, in micrometers (μm) = 66μm

Q2. To determine the linear distance Δx, between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen

i.e we have to find the difference between distance along the screen (y₉-y₅) = Δx

Recall Eqn 1,     y = nDλ/w  

given, D = 27cm = 0.27m  

λ = 632 x 10-9 m  

w = 0.1mm = 1.0x10⁻⁴m

For the 9th order, n = 9,

y₉ = 9 x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.015m

Similarly, for n = 5,

y₅ = 5x 0.27 x 632 x 10-9/ 1.0x10⁻⁴m = 0.0085m

Recall,  Δx = (y₉-y₅) = 0.015 - 0.0085 = 0.0065m

Hence, the linear distance Δx between the ninth order maximum and the fifth order maximum on the screen = 6.5mm

How does an object's position and velocity change as the object accelerates?”
taurus [48]

Answer:

aerodynamics

Explanation:

if an object like a car is going 200 mph at max speed and then the car gets aerodynamic or smoothed to the point that air can get by the car it could end up going another 20 mph faster
