Answer:

32000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)

0 = 1600 + 20a

Collect like terms

0 – 1600 = 20a

–1600 = 20a

Divide both side by –1600

a = –1600 / 20

a = –80 m/s²

The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.

Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 400 × –80

F = – 32000 N

NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.

PLEASE HELP ME I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR HOURS!! How do some carnivorous plants avoid beginning the digestion process from an a
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Once a carnivorous plant has procured an item for dinner, it has to have some way to turn it into fertilizer. What carnivorous plants do is very similar to what humans do with their dinner after they have eaten it. Most carnivorous plants have glands that secrete acids and enzymes to dissolve proteins and other compounds. The plants may also enlist other organisms to help with digestion. The plants then absorb the nutrients made available from the prey.

Drosera releases digestive juices through the glands at the tip of its tentacles and absorbs the nutrients through the tentacles, leaf surface, and sessile glands. In order to do this it bends its tentacles and rolls or bends the leaf to get as many tentacles as possible into contact with the prey for digestion and to make as much leaf surface available for absorption. Its relative Drosophyllum has differently structured, non moving tentacles and doesn't use them directly for digestion. Instead it has specialized glands on the surface of the leaf that release the digestive enzymes (see Carniv. Pl. Newslett. 11(3):66-73 ( PDF ) for drawings and discussion).

The sealed trap of Dionaea does digestion in a way similar to the leaf surface digestion carnivores—upon capture of a prey, digestive enzymes in mucous are released. The advantage of the sealed trap of Dionaea is rain won't wash away the nutrients as digestion proceeds.

The sealed trap carnivores Aldrovanda and Utricularia already have water in their traps so they only need to release enzymes. Utricularia appears to release the enzymes continuously into its traps.

The other carnivorous plants use either a mixed mode of digestive enzymes and partner organisms (Genlisea, Sarracenia, most Nepenthes, Cephalotus, some Heliamphora, Roridula) or other organisms exclusively for digestion (most Heliamphora, some Nepenthes, Darlingtonia). Part of the reason for partnering with other organisms is that the plants actually have little choice in the matter. This could also be a factor for the leaf surface and sealed trap digesters as well. The prey will have gut flora that are quite capable of digesting their host when it dies. In addition, insect larvae, frog tadpoles, and predacious protozoans will or will attempt to take up residence in water-filled traps. The plant releasing digestive enzymes and acids into the traps will help tip the nutrition balance to themselves, but there are limits.

A transformer consists of 290 primary windings and 824 secondary windings. Part A: If the potential difference across the primar
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Part 1) Voltage in secondary windings is 61.08 Volts

Part 2) Current in secondary windings is 0.53 Amperes

Explanation:

The potential developed in the primary and secondary winding of a transformer are related as

\frac{N_{p}}{N_{s}}=\frac{V_{p}}{V_{s}}

where

Np no of turns in primary coil

Ns no of turns in secondary coil

Vp Voltage of turns in primary coil

Vs Voltage of turns in secondary coil

Applying values in the formula we get

\frac{290}{824}=\frac{21.5}{V_{s}}\\\\\therefore V_{s}=21.5\times \frac{824}{290}=61.08V

Part 2)

Using Ohm's law the current is given by

I=\frac{V_{s}}{R}\\\\I=\frac{61.089}{115}=0.53A

HELP <br> which two changes to a metal wire both increases resistance? the answer is B but why ?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

<h2>option C </h2><h2>decreasing its thickness and increasing its temperature. </h2>

Explanation:

<h2>Resistance is directly proportional to length and temperature of the wire and inversely to area.</h2>

<h3>if you increase the temperature the resistance will increase.(resistance is directly proportional to temperature)</h3>

<h3>if you decrease its thickness (area) then the resistance will increase ( resistance is inversely proportional to area)</h3>

hope it helps:)
