A car is 200 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 40.0 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she m

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4.17 m/s²

Explanation:

We are told the reaction time is 0.2 s. Now, during this reaction time the car is going to travel an additional distance of : x = u × t = 40 × 0.2 = 8 m

where u is the initial velocity of the car which is 40.0 m/s.

We are told that he had 200 m to stop before applying brakes. Thus, after applying brakes, he now has a distance to cover of; s = 200 - 8 = 192 m

Since vehicle is coming to rest acceleration would be negative, thus using Newton's equation of motion, we have;

v ² = u² - 2as

v = 0 m/s since it's coming to rest

u = 40 m/s

s = 192 m

Thus;

0² = 40² - 2(a)(192)

0² = 1600 - 384a

a = 1600/384

a = 4.17 m/s²

Calculate the heat flux (in W/m^2) through a sheet of a metal 14 mm thick if the temperatures at the two faces are 350 and 140°C

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rate of conductive heat transfer in watts is:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

where k is the heat conductivity, s is the thickness, A is the area, and ΔT is the temperature difference.

Given k = 52.4 W/m/K, s = 0.014 m, and ΔT = 350-140 = 210 K, we can find q/A:

q/A = (52.4 / 0.014) (210)

q/A = 786,000 W/m²

Given that A = 0.42 m², we can find q:

q = (0.42 m²) (786,000 W/m²)

q = 330,120 W

A watt is a Joule per second. Convert to Joules per hour:

q = 330,120 J/s * 3600 s/hr

q = 1.19×10⁹ J/hr

If we change k to 1.8 W/m/K:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

q = (1.8 / 0.014) (0.42) (210)

q = 11,340 J/s

q = 4.08×10⁷ J/hr

If k is 52.4 W/m/K and s is 0.024 m:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

q = (52.4 / 0.024) (0.42) (210)

q = 192,570 J/s

q = 6.93×10⁸ J/hr

A box slides down a ramp inclined at 24◦ to the horizontal with an acceleration of 1.7 m/s 2 . The acceleration of gravity is 9.

dsp73

Answer:

Explanation:

In friction, the coefficient of friction formula is expressed as;

$\mu = \frac{F_f}{R}$

Ff is the frictional force = Wsinθ

R is the reaction = Wcosθ

Substitute inti the equation;

$\mu = \frac{Wsin \theta}{W cos\theta} \\\mu = \frac{sin \theta}{cos\theta} \\\mu = tan \theta$

Given

θ = 24°

$\mu = tan 24^0\\\mu = 0.445\\$

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.445

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determi

Talja [164]

The solution to the problem is as follows:

<span>Average = 80
So Sum = 80 * 5 = 400
Mode = 88, so two results are 88 (if three results were 88, then the median would be 88).
Three results are 81, 88, and 88.
That leaves 143. We could still have one 81 score, so that leaves the lowest score as 62.

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determined by the equation d = 144 - 16t2, where t is the number of seconds it takes the car to travel down to each point on the ride. How many seconds will it take Greg to reach the ground?
d = 144 - 16t2
0 = 144 - 16t2
16t^2=144
t^2=9
t=3</span>

Explain numericals of electricity chapter of class 10 and also diagrams.What is ammeter?What is voltmeter?potential difference?O

SVEN [57.7K]

Let's explain the following electrical terms.

• Electric current, can be said to be the flow of electric charge. These charges are through a conductor by moving electrons.

• Ammeter, is an instrument used to measure the amount of electric current in a circuit.

The name ammeter was derived from the unit of electric current (Amperes).

• Voltmeter, can be said to be an instrument used to measure the voltage(potential difference) in a circuit. It measures the electric potential between two points in an electrical circuit. It can also be called voltage meter.

• Electric circuit, can be defined as the conductive path for the flow of electric current.

It allows electric charge carriers to flow continuously.

• Resistance ,can be said to be the property of an electrical conductor which resists the flow of electric current. It is measured in ohms.

• Ohms law, states that the potential difference (V) between two points is directly proportional to the electric current across two points.

It is deonted as: V = I x R

Voltage = Current x Resistance

• Electric potential ,can be said to be the amount of electric potential energy at a point.
