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

A 120.0 kg crate is placed on a 15.00°
Citrus2011 [14]

F = 2820.1 N

Explanation:

Let the (+)x-axis be up along the slope. The component of the weight of the crate along the slope is -mgsin15° (pointing down the slope). The force that keeps the crate from sliding is F. Therefore, we can write Newton's 2nd law along the x-axis as

Fnet = ma = 0 (a = 0 no sliding)

= F - mgsin15°

= 0

or

F = mgsin15°

= (120 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)sin15°

= 2820.1 N

The sum of the initial and final velocity is divided by 2 to find the average.
4vir4ik [10]

The average velocity is obtained by ( u + v)/2.

<h3>What is average velocity?</h3>

The term velocity refers to the rate of change of displacement with time. Velocity is a vector quantity thus it has both magnitude and direction. The velocity of a body could also be shown by the use of the vector notation.

To obtain the average velocity;

Let the initial velocity be u

Let the final velocity be v

It then follows that the average velocity = ( u + v)/2
