Answer:

Many drivers follow the “three-second rule.” In other words, you should keep three seconds worth of space between your car and the car in front of you in order to maintain a safe following distance.

3. What is the potential energy of a 8 Newton book sitting on a shelf that is 12 meters high?​
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

P = 96 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the book, W = mg = 8 N

It is placed at a height of 12 m

We need to find the potential energy of the book. The potential energy of an object is given by the formula as follows :

E = mgh

mg = Weight

E=8\ N\times 12\ m\\E=96\ J

So, the potential energy of the book is 96 J.

You build a solenoid containing 500 windings over a 0.20-m length, with a loop radius of 0.025 m for each winding. the current i
marta [7]
The inductance of a solenoid is given by:
L= \frac{\mu_0 N^2 A}{l}
where
\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
N is the number of turns of the solenoid
A is the area of one loop of the solenoid
l is its length

For the solenoid in our problem, N=500, and the radius of one loop is r=0.025 m, so the area of one loop is
A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.025 m)^2 = 1.96 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2
and its length is l=0.20 m

So the inductance of the solenoid is
L= \frac{(4 \pi \cdot 10^{-7} NA^{-2})(500)^2(1.96 \cdot 10^{-3} m^2)}{ 0.20 m}=3.08 \cdot 10^{-3} H

What does Newton's first law describes​
Misha Larkins [42]
The idea that objects only change their velocity due to a force is encapsulated in Newton's first law. Newton's first law: An object at rest remains at rest, or if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force.

A 10 kg dog runs across the ground and jumps onto an ice-covered pond at 5 m/s. If the force of friction acting on the dog is 8
zzz [600]

Answer:

15.625m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

v² = u²+2as

u and v are the initial and final velocities

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

Get the acceleration

According to Newton's second law;

F  = ma

8 = 10a

a = 8/10

a = 0.8m/s²

We are also given

v = 5m/s

u = 0m/s

Substitute into the formula above

v² = u²+2as

5² = 0²+2(0.8)s

25 = 1.6s

s = 25/1.6

s = 15.625m

Hence the dog will cover a distance of 15.625m before coming to rest
