What Is the acceleration of a toy car that starts from rest and has a speed of 0.12 m/s after 0.1?

Physics

VikaD [51]3 years ago
6 0

Given: Initial velocity of toy car (u ) = 0

Final velocity of toy car (v) = 0.12 m/s

Required time (t) = 0.1 s

To find: The acceleration of the toy car.

Let the acceleration of the toy car be (a)

Formula Used: 1st kinematic equation of motion

                              v = u + at ---------------------------(i)

Here, all alphabets are in their usual meanings

Now, from equation (i), we shall calculate the value of 'a'.

so,                          a = (v - u) /t

or,                          a = (0.12 m/s - 0) / 0.1s

or,                          a = 1.2 m/s²

Hence, the required acceleration of the toy car will be 1.2 m/s².

Explain why the top of the loop cannot be the same height as (or higher than) the top of the first hill. Assume the roller coast
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

By conservation of energy, it can climb up to a height equal to that it went down before. However, due to the friction in the machines, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster will decrease. As a result, the first "hill" of many roller coasters are the highest, but the followings will have decreasing heights.

A ray of light traveling through air strikes a piece of diamond at an angle of incidence equal to 56 degrees. Calculate the angu
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The angle of separation is  \Delta \theta =  0.93 ^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The angle of incidence is  \theta  _ i  = 56^o

     The refractive index of violet light  in diamond  is  n_v = 2.46

       The refractive index of red light in diamond is n_r = 2.41

      The wavelength of violet light is  \lambda _v = 400nm = 400*10^{-9}m

         The wavelength of red  light is  \lambda _r = 700nm = 700*10^{-9}m

Snell's  Law can be represented mathematically as

         \frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_r} = n

Where \theta_r is the angle of refraction

=>       sin \theta_r  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n}

Now considering violet light

               sin \theta_r__{v}}  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_v}

substituting values

                sin \theta_r__{v}}  =   \frac{sin (56)}{2.46}

                 sin \theta_r__{v}}  =  0.337

                 \theta_r__{v}}  =  sin ^{-1} (0.337)

                 \theta_r__{v}}  =  19.69^o

Now considering red light

               sin \theta_r__{R}}  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_r}

substituting values

                sin \theta_r__{R}}  =   \frac{sin (56)}{2.41}

                 sin \theta_r__{R}}  =  0.344

                 \theta_r__{R}}  =  sin ^{-1} (0.344)

                 \theta_r__{R}}  = 20.12^o

The angle of separation between the red light and the violet light is mathematically evaluated as

                  \Delta \theta = \theta_r__{R}} -  \theta_r__{V}}

substituting values

                  \Delta \theta =20.12 - 19.69

                  \Delta \theta =  0.93 ^o

Cloudy nights are usually warm because​
almond37 [142]

Answer:

When you have a cloudy night, the clouds prevent heat from escaping through the atmosphere and into space.

The clouds act like a blanket and trap the heat it, and that is why every time you have a cloudy night, it is always warmer than a clear night.

An astronaut is drifting away from his spaceship. how can he return, using an aerosol spray?
beks73 [17]

The astronaut should shoot the aerosol spray in the opposite direction of where the astronaut is going to return back to the spaceship. This is in accordance to Newton’s Thrid Law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.


Hope this helps you out!
