24. A car is travelling along an expressway at 90 km/h. The driver spots a stalled car and some traffic congestion on the road a

head, and so applies the brakes. The braking action causes a frictional force of 8400 N to act on the 1050 kg car. (a) What is the acceleration of the car when the brakes are applied? (b) How long does it take for the car to stop? (c) How far does the car travel while it is braking?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We convert the speed of the car to ms-1

90 × 1000/3600 = 25 ms-1

a) from;

F= ma

a= F/m

a= 8400/1050 = 8 ms-2

b) from

v= u - at

v= 0

u = 25 ms-1

a= 8 ms-2

t= ?

t = u/a = 25/8 = 3.1 s

From;

v^2 = u^2 - 2as

v= 0 ms-1

u^2 = 2as

s = u^2/2a

s= (25)^2/2 × 8

s= 625/16

s = 39 m

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

2.63 x 10^18

Explanation:

A = 1 cm^2 = 1 x 10^-4 m^2

λ = 10,000 nm = 10,000 x 10^-9 m = 10^-5 m

T = 37 degree C = 37 + 273 = 310 k

Energy of each photon = h c / λ

where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light

Energy of each photon = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / 10^-5 = 1.989 x 10^-20 J

Energy radiated per unit time = σ A T^4

Where, σ is Stefan's constant

Energy radiated per unit time = 5.67 x 10^-8 x 10^-4 x 310^4 = 0.05236 J

Number of photons per second = Energy radiated per unit time / Energy of  

                                                                                               each photon

Number of photons per second = 0.05236 / (1.989 x 10^-20) = 2.63 x 10^18

A frame hanging on a wall is held by two cables. The tension in each cable is 30 N, and the cables make an angle of 45° with the
Dimas [21]

Answer: option D) 42.4 N

The weight of the frame is balanced by the vertical component of tension.

W = T sin θ + T sin θ = 2 T sin θ

The tension in each cable is T = 30 N

Angle made by the cables with the horizontal, θ = 45°

⇒ W = 2×30 N × sin 45° = 2 × 30 N × 0.707 = 42.4 N

Hence, the weight of the frame is 42.4 N. Correct option is D.

Tomorrow i have a science test, could someone please fill me in on the water cycle?
Lorico [155]

the cycle of processes by which water circulates between the earth's oceans, atmosphere and land involving precipitation as rain and snow drainage in streams and rivers and return to the atmosphere by evaporation and transpiration.

Hope this gives you a little bit more information!

A stone is dropped from a tower 100 meters above the ground. The stone falls past ground level and into a well. It hits the wate
Elan Coil [88]
Make the base of the building zero. Then the initial distance is 100m, final distance unknown x. Use gravity, time and initial velocity to solve for final distance.
x - 100 = (0)(5) +(1/2)(-9.81)(5^2)
x - 100 = 0 - 122.625
x = -122.625 + 100
x = -22.625 m below ground
