A car of mass 2 320 kg is descending a sloping road, inclined at 10.0° to the horizontal. The driver sees a hazard and brakes to

make an emergency stop. The distance travelled while braking is 22.5 m.
The initial speed of the car was 13.4 m s−1. Calculate the average braking force. Assume air resistance is negligible.

f = 1.32×10^4 N

Explanation:

We can use the work-energy theorem to find the work done by the braking force f:

W = ∆KE + ∆PE

= (KEf - KEi) + (PEf - PEi)

= [(1/2)mvf^2 - (1/2)mvi^2] + (mhf - mghi)

At the bottom of the slope, vf = 0 and hf = 0 and hi = dsin10° (d = braking distance) so work W becomes

W = -[(1/2)mvi^2 + mgdsin10°]

= -m[(1/2)vi^2 + gdsin10°]

= -(2320kg)[(1/2)(13.4m/s)^2 + (9.8 m/s^2)(22.5m)sin10]

= -2.97×10^5 J

Since W = fd, where f is the braking force, we can now solve for f:

f = W/d = (-2.97×10^5 J)/(22.5 m)

= -1.32×10^4 N

Note: the negative sign means that it is a dissipative force.

Rachel collected data on the speed of sound waves passing through different media.
Helga [31]

The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.

<h3>Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>

Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.

A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.

Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>

The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".

A small bolt with a mass of 41.0 g sits on top of a piston. The piston is undergoing simple harmonic motion in the vertical dire
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Amplitude will be equal to 0.091 m

Explanation:

Given mass of the slits = 41 gram = 0.041 kg

Frequency f = 1.65 Hz

So angular frequency \omega =2\pi f=2\times 3.14\times 1.65=10.362rad/sec

Angular frequency is equal to \omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

10.362 =\sqrt{\frac{k}{0.041}}

Squaring both side

107.371 ={\frac{k}{0.041}}

k = 4.40 N/m

For vertical osculation

mg=kA

0.041\times 9.8=4.40\times A

A = 0.091 m

So amplitude will be equal to 0.0391 m

Use PV = nRT and solve for P.
n = grams/molar mass = 5.00/molar mass CO2
Ignore the SO2.

But I think the answer it 6.74 atm

But I’m not saying but is but I’m just thinking this is the answer.

Goodluck!
