1) A car is traveling down the interstate at 37.1 m/s. The driver sees a cop and quickly slows down. If the driver slows to 29.8
WITCHER [35]

1)

The acceleration of the car is the rate of change of velocity of the car; it can be calculated as:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity of the car to change from u to v

In this problem, for this car we have:

u = 37.1 m/s

v = 29.8 m/s

t = 3 s

So, the acceleration is:

a=\frac{29.8-37.1}{3}=-2.43 m/s^2

2)

The work done in lifting the box is equal to the potential energy transferred to the box during the process; it is given by:

W=Fd

where

F is the force applied

d is the displacement of the box

Here we have:

F = 87.3 N is the force applied

d = 2.04 m is the displacement of the box

So, the work done to lift the box is:

W=(87.3)(2.04)=178.1 J

3)

The power is the rate of work done per unit time. It is calculated as:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W is the work done

t is the time taken to do the work

For the child in this problem, we have:

W = 1250 J is the work done by the child running up the stairs

P = 267 W is the power used

Therefore, re-arranging the equation, we find the time taken:

t=\frac{W}{P}=\frac{1250}{267}=4.68 s

4)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the rabbit in this problem, we have:

m = 8.642 kg is the mass of the rabbit

KE = 125.6 is its kinetic energy

Solving the formula for v, we find the speed of the rabbit:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(125.6)}{8.642}}=5.4 m/s

5)

The efficiency of a machine is the ratio between the energy produced in output by the machine and the work done in input. Mathematically, it is given by

\eta = \frac{E_{out}}{W_{in}}\cdot 100

where

E_{out} is the energy in output

W_{in} is the work in input

For the machine in this problem,

W_{in}=120 J is the work in input

E_{out}=93 J is the energy in output

Therefore, the efficiency of this machine is:

\eta=\frac{93}{120}\cdot 100=77.5\%

6)

During a collision, the total momentum of the system is always conserved before and after the collision. So we can write:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 =(m_1+m_2)v

where

m_1=212 kg is the mass of the first car

u_1=8.00 m/s is the initial velocity of the first car

m_2=196 kg is the mass of the 2nd car

u_2=6.75 m/s is the initial velocity of the 2nd car

v is the final velocity of the two cars stuck together (after the collision, they move together)

Solving the equation for v, we find:

v=\frac{m_1 u_1 +m_2 u_2}{m_1 +m_2}=\frac{(212)(8.00)+(196)(6.75)}{212+196}=7.40 m/s

7)

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in the string in this problem we have:

\lambda=0.23 m (wavelength)

f = 12 Hz (frequency)

So, the speed of the wave is:

v=(12)(0.23)=2.76 m/s

8)

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is given by

c=f\lambda

where:

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

f is the frequency of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength of the wave

For the blue light in this problem, we have

f=6.2\cdot 10^{14}Hz (frequency)

while the speed of light is

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

So, the wavelength of blue light is:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^8}{6.2\cdot 10^{14}}=4.8\cdot 10^{-7} m

9)

The sound wave in this problem travels with uniform motion (=constant velocity), therefore we can use the following equation:

d=vt

where

d is the distance covered by the wave

v is the speed of the wave

t is the time elapsed

In this problem:

v = 343 m/s is the speed of the sound wave

t = 0.287 s is the time elapsed

So, the distance covered by the wave is

d=(343)(0.287)=98.4 m

15. What is true about concentration of a solution? *
Naya [18.7K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

A saturated solution is a chemical solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A solution is made by dissolving a solute in a solvent.
  • For example dissolving a salt in a solvent such as water results to a solution.
  • Solution may either be saturated or unsaturated.
  • Unsaturated solution is a solution that can dissolve more solute upon addition because it has not reached saturation.
  • A saturated solution on the other hand is a solution that has maximum solute and the concentration of solute is maximum and thus the solvent can not dissolve any more solute.
  • Therefore, a saturated solutions contain maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solute.

Describe the distribution of mass within an atom
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The nuclei of most atoms also contain neutrons . The masses of subatomic particles are very tiny. ... Since the nucleus contains protons and neutrons, most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus. Protons and electrons have electrical charges that are equal and opposite.
