A 1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The driver applies the brakes

and the car comes to a rest uniformly in a distance of 160 m. What are the magnitude and direction of the net force applied to the car to bring it to rest?

Answer:

Force applied to stop the car = 1,250 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of car (M) = 1,000 kg

Initial velocity (U) = 20 m/s

Final velocity (V) = 0 m/s

Distance (S) = 160 m

Find:

Force applied to stop the car.

Computation:

v^2 = u^2 + 2as\\\\0^2=20^2+2(a)(160)\\\\0=400+320(a)\\\\Acceleration = a = -1.25m/s^2\\\\Force = ma \\\\Force= 1,000(1.25)\\\\Force = 1,250 N

Force applied to stop the car = 1,250 N

When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster.  Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

1200kg car speeds up from 2 m/s to 6 m/s. How many times greater is the car's kinetic
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

9 times as great

Explanation:

KE = 1/2mv²

  1. 1/2(1200)(2)² = 2,400 J
  2. 1/2(1200)(6)² = 21,600 J

21,600 / 2,400 = 9

The average rate of disappearance of ozone in the reaction is
olasank [31]

Answer:

1.3 x 10^(-2) atm/s

Explanation:

It follows the stoichiometry. For every mole of O3 that disappears, 1.5 moles (that is, 3/2) of O2 appears:

1.5 * 0.009 atm/s = 0.0135 atm/sec; the answer is 1.3 x 10^(-2) atm/s
