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

I REALLY NEED HELP
ikadub [295]
The first law of thermodynamics states the conservation of energy and heat where the total energy in an isolated system may be transformed into another, but never created or destroyed. If 286 J of energy was released to the room, then also 286 J of energy was also removed from food in that refrigerator assuming it is an isolated system.   :)

Which, if any, of the following statements about electric field lines is/are true? A.The electric field is always perpendicular
jonny [76]
The electric field is always perpendicular to the surface outside of a conductor. TRUE

<span> If an electron were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction perpendicular to the field. FALSE, it would move in an anti-parallel direction because its charge is negative </span>
 
<span>Electric field lines originate on positive charge and terminate on negative charge. TRUE ; but they can also go to infinity </span>
 
It is possible for two electric field lines to cross each other.
<span> Usually FALSE; though technically possible at special points where field is zero. </span>
 
If an electron and a positron were in the presence of a very strong electric field, they would move away from each other.
<span> TRUE; one is positive, and one is negative. If the field is strong enough, the action of the field will overcome the mutual attraction between them </span>
 
It is not possible for the electric field to ever be zero. FALSE: it IS possible, inside a conductor for instance
   
If a proton were placed on an electric field line, it would move in a direction anti-parallel to the field.
<span> FALSE: being positive, it would move in the SAME direction as the field</span>ic

Which explanation BEST supports Newton's second law of motion which states that force = mass x acceleration?
GaryK [48]
The answer is C. F=ma basically says that force is a function of mass multiplied by acceleration. The first two answers don’t make sense because there’s no necessary relationship between mass and acceleration. And for the last two, the higher the mass, the higher the force needed, therefore C is the correct answer.
