Multiple-Concept Example 9 reviews the concepts that are important in this problem. A drag racer, starting from rest, speeds up

for 391 m with an acceleration of +18.9 m/s2. A parachute then opens, slowing the car down with an acceleration of -9.92 m/s2. How fast is the racer moving 332 m after the parachute opens?​

Answer:

V = 90.51 m/s

Explanation:

From the given information:

Initial speed (u) = 0

Distance (S) = 391 m

Acceleration (a) = 18.9 m/s²

Using the relation for the equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

v² - 0² = 2as

v² = 2as

v = \sqrt{2as}

v = \sqrt{2*18.9*391}

v = 121.57 m/s

After the parachute opens:

The initial velocity = 121.57 m/ss

Distance S' = 332 m

Acceleration = -9.92 m/s²

How fast is the racer can be determined by using the relation:

V=  \sqrt{v^2 + 2aS'}

V = \sqrt{121.57^2+ 2 (-9.92)(332)}

V = 90.51 m/s

Answer:

the net force is acting upon the object. The net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object. That is to say, the net force is the sum of all the forces, taking into account the fact that a force is a vector and two forces of equal magnitude. Hope this helps you.

The weight of the mass added to the hanger is equal to the extra force on the gas, but what area should we use to calculate the
kari74 [83]

Answer: according to the Avagadro's law, volume is directly propotional to no of moles: VXn

according to the Charles law, volume is directly propotional to  temperatue: VXT

according to the Boyle's law, volume is inversely propotional to P: VX1/P

when we combine them we get:

VXnT1/P

V=knT/P

k= R(universal gas constant)

V=RnT/P

PV=nRT

Why society might initially reject a new scientific theory?
Irina18 [472]

I was about to say:  because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.

But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.

"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science. 

First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news.  Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.

Second, let's face it.  The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.

There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned.  But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.

That's pretty much why.
