A car is traveling at a constant speed of 33 m/s on a highway. At the instant this car passes an entrance ramp, a second car ent

ers the highway from the ramp. The second car starts from rest and has a constant acceleration. What acceleration must it maintain, so that the two cars meet for the first time at the next exit, which is 2.5 km away

Answer:

0.8712 m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Velocity of first car; v1 = 33 m/s

Distance; d = 2.5 km = 2500 m

Acceleration of first car; a1 = 0 m/s² (constant acceleration)

Velocity of second car; v2 = 0 m/s (since the second car starts from rest)

From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;

d = ut + ½at²

Thus,for first car, we have;

d = v1•t + ½(a1)t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 33t + 0

d = 33t

For second car, we have;

d = v2•t + ½(a2)•t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 0 + ½(a2)t²

d = ½(a2)t²

Since they meet at the next exit, then;

33t = ½(a2)t²

simplifying to get;

33 = ½(a2)t

Now, we also know that;

t = distance/speed = d/v1 = 2500/33

Thus;

33 = ½ × (a2) × (2500/33)

Rearranging, we have;

a2 = (33 × 33 × 2)/2500

a2 = 0.8712 m/s²

â/8.37 points scalcet8 12.2.037. ask your teacher my notes question part points submissions used a block-and-tackle pulley hoist
AnnyKZ [126]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The hoist is in static equilibrium supported by tensions in the two ropes.

For horizontal force balance, obtain
T₃ cos 50 = T₂ cos 38
0.6428T₃ = 0.788T₂
T₃ = 1.2259T₂             (1)

For vertical force balance, obtain
T₂ sin 38 + T₃ sin 50 = 350
0.6157T₂ + 0.766T₃ = 350     (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
0.6157T₂ + 0.766(1.2259T₂) = 350
1.5547T₂ = 350
T₂ = 225.124 N
T₃ = 1.2259(225.124) = 275.979

Answer:
T₂ = 225.12 N
T₃ = 275.98 N

The conservation laws, show ift<br>te-te​
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves over time. The exact conservation laws include conservation of energy, and conservation of linear momentum, and also conservation of angular momentum, aswell as the conservation of electric charge

How many paths do the electrons have to flowlin a series circuit?
AleksandrR [38]
One path because in a series circuit it is only one path while in a parallel circuit you have 2 or more. Our houses use parallel so that is why you can turn off one light and the rest would stay on.

An average human weighs about 600 N
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The distance between them, x = 5809.47 m

Explanation:

Given,

The average weight of a human, w = 600 N

The charge carried by the humans, q = 1.5 C

If 600 N of force acts between two opposite charges, the distance between the charges can be derived from the Coulomb's laws of force,

                          <em>F=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\frac{qq}{x^{2}}</em>

Where,

                         \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}} = 9 x 10⁹ N m² C⁻²

Therefore

                          x² = 9 x 10⁹ X 1.5² / 600

                              = 33750000

                           x = 5809.46 m

Hence, the distance between the humans should be, x = 5809.47 m
