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!

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster is 10,800 km/s. (a) using H0 = 73 km/s/Mpc, find the distance to
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) 147.95 Mpc

Explanation:

Using Hubble's formula

v = H_od

where;

v = radical velocity

H_o = Hubble's constant

d = distance

Given that:

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster v =  10,800 km/s

Also using H_o = 73 km/s/ Mpc ; we  make distance d the subject of the formula:

Then distance d can be written as:

d = \frac{v}{H_o}

d = \frac{10,800  \ km/s}{73 \ km/s/Mpc}

d = 147.95 Mpc

b)

Now, if the Hubble constant had a smaller value, then for a  given velocity the distance to the galaxy will increase because distance d is inversely proportional to H_o

i.e  

d  ∝ \frac{1}{H_0}

Name the missing force... Normal <br>   Spring <br>   Tension <br>   Air Resistance
Kay [80]

the missing force is spring force.

The object is hanging from the spring and the spring is stretched by some distance from its equilibrium position.  due to this stretch in the spring , a spring force starts acting on the object trying to regain its equilibrium position.

the spring force is given as

F = kx

where F = spring force ,k = spring constant , x = stretch in the spring.

the spring force balances the weight of the object in down direction and hence keeps the block from falling down.

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

675m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Acceleration  = 6m/s²

Time  = 15s

Unknown:

Distance traveled by the body = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem; we use the expression;

   S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at²

 Where u is the initial velocity

              t is the time

             a is the temperature

         

Insert the parameters and solve;

  S = 0 x 15 + \frac{1}{2} x 6 x 15²  

  S = 675m

A chunk of ice with a mass of 1.2 kg melts and absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy. Which best describes what has happened in this sys
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

- Its entropy increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as a 'measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.' It is also employed to denote randomness, disorder, or uncertainty of the arrangement/system. In the given system, the melting of ice denotes the 'increase in entropy' as the amount of energy unavailable to do work increases('absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy'). Thus, <u>this signifies that the entropy increases with a rise in temperature as it allows the substance to have greater kinetic energy</u>.
