Answer:

d = 40 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 4000 N

Mass of a car, m = 800 kg

Initial velocity, u = 0 (at rest)

Final velocity, v = 20 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled. Force acting on a car is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration of the car.

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{4000}{800}\\\\a=5\ m/s^2$

Let it has traveled d distance. Using third equation of motion.

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{(20)^2-(0)^2}{2\times 5}\\\\d=40\ m$

So, the required distance is equal to 40 m.

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the drag force?

timurjin [86]

Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4

Explanation:

The Drag Force equation is:

$F_{D}=\frac{1}{2}C_{D}\rho A_{D}V^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$F_{D}$ is the Drag Force

$C_{D}$ is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (air in this case)

$A_{D}$ is the transversal area of the body or object

$V$ the bicycle's velocity

Now, if we assume $C_{D}$ , $\rho$ and $A_{D}$ do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:

$F_{D}=C.V^{2}$ (2)

Where $C$ groups all these coefficients.

So, if we have a new velocity $V_{n}$ , which is the double of the former velocity:

$V_{n}=2V$ (3)

Equation (2) is written as:

$F_{D}=C.V_{n}^{2}=C.(2V)^{2}$

$F_{D}=4CV^{2}$ (4)

Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.

Why do sex cells contain only half the number of chromosomes needed for offspring? Explain

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

None, egg cells don't have chromosomes. No, sex cells do have chromosomes. Meiosis reduces chromosome number so that sex cells (eggs and sperm) have a half set of chromosomesâ€“one homolog of each pair. This is the haploid number.

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o

astraxan [27]

Answer:

3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

A = Area of the heel = 1.50 cm² = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ m²

m = mass of the woman = 55.0 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the heel is given as

F = mg

Inserting the values

F = (55) (9.8)

F = 539 N

Pressure exerted on the floor is given as

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

$P = \frac{539}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}$

P = 3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

The answer is B. Vas deferens.

The Vas deferens is a tube that carries the sperm from your testes to the urethra and out the body. A vasectomy is a form of birth control where the pathway of sperm is blocked through cutting or tying off the vas deferens. The word Vasectomy comes from the term Vas deferens.
