A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 24 ft/s2. What is the dist

ance (in ft) traveled before the car comes to a stop? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

The car has initial speed 50 mi/h ≈ 73 ft/s, so it covers a distance <em>x</em> such that

0² - (73 ft/s)² = 2 (-24 ft/s²) <em>x</em>

==> <em>x</em> ≈ 111.0 ft

A circuit is set up such that it has a current of 8 A. What would be the new current if the resistance was increased by a factor

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

$V=RI$

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

The equation can also be rewritten as

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.

In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:

R ' = 2R

So the new current is

$I'=\frac{V}{R'}=\frac{V}{2R}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{V}{R})=\frac{I}{2}=4 A$

so the current is halved.

If a car was cruising down the highway at 80 km/hr, how fast would the people inside the car be traveling?

wolverine [178]

Because the people in the car are attached to the vehicle, the people inside the vehicle are going the same speed as the vehicle.

Hope this helps! :)
