At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 98 m long. It was a rainy day and the coeffi

cient of friction was estimated to be 0.38. a) Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes.b) Why does the car's mass not matter?

Answer:

a. V = 19.1m/s

b. The mass of the car does not matter

Explanation:

A.

KE = 1/2mv² = fd --------(1)

Fd = umgd ---------(2)

Therefore,

1/2mv² = umgd ---------(3)

M will cancel itself out from both sides of equation 3.

Then we will have:

1/2v² = ugd

Then we cross multiply to make v² the subject of the formula

V² = 2ugd

V = √2ugd -------(4)

U = 0.38

g = 9.81

d = 98

When we input these values into equation 4, we will have:

V = √2x0.38x9.81x98

V = √730.6488

V = 27.03m/s

B.

The mass of the car does not actually matter as the mass was cancelled out on the both sides of equation 3

Whats the difference between identical and fraternal twins
IrinaK [193]
Twin type has less to do with what twins look like and more to do with how they formed.
Identical, or monozygotic, twins form when a single fertilized egg splits and develop as two babies in the uterus. Identical twins originate from the same combination of cells and have the same genetic origin. They are ALWAYS the same sex, two girls/two boys. They may look very similar and it may be difficult to tell them apart.
Fraternal, or dizygotic, twins are two individuals from the same pregnancy who from TWO SEPARATE eggs fertilized by TWO SEPARATE SPERM. The genetic similarity between fraternal twins is the same as any two siblings, about 50 percent. They can be boys, girls, or one of each.

Suppose that Salim hits a 100 g fastball moving towards him at a speed of 42 m/s with his bat as shown in the image.the impulse
FinnZ [79.3K]

The final momentum of the ball is 3.8 kgm/s.

<h3>Change in momentum of the ball</h3>

The impulse received by the ball is equal to change in momentum of the ball.

J = ΔP

where;

  • J is the impulse
  • ΔP is change in momentum

ΔP = P₂ - P₁

P₂ = ΔP + P₁

<h3>Final momentum of the ball</h3>

The final momentum of the ball is calculated as follows;

P₂ = 8 + (- 0.1 x 42)

P₂ = 8 - 4.2

P₂ = 3.8 kgm/s

Which factors affect heat transfer between a warm and a cool substance?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer: B

Explanation:

It's not the time it took to heat the substance, so that rules out A and C.

This means that we only have to choose between

B. the area of contact

D. the area of the substances

(since everything else in each of those answers are the same)

Area of contact matters more (e.g. an object with greater surface area is exposed to the air more, will lose/gain heat quicker than an object with less surface area).
