Answer:

-6.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 30.5 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 4.5 s

Find: a

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 m/s − 30.5 m/s) / 4.5 s

a = -6.8 m/s²

PLEASEEE HELP, thank you :)

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Given that the <em>current </em>(Ampere) in a series circuit is same so we can ignore it. We can assume that the total voltage is 60V and all the 3 resistance are different, 20Ω, 40Ω and 60Ω. So first, we have to find the total resistance by adding :

Total resistance = 20Ω + 40Ω + 60Ω

= 120Ω

Next, we have to find out that 1Ω is equal to how many voltage by dividing :

120Ω = 60V

1Ω = 60V ÷ 120

1Ω = 0.5V

Lastly, we have to calculate the voltage at R1 so we have to multiply by 20 (R1) :

1Ω = 0.5V

20Ω = 0.5V × 20

20Ω = 10V

Estimated speed of the vehicle
SSSSS [86.1K]

Really, Gundy ? ! ?

The formula for the car's speed is given and discussed in the box.  The formula is

v = √(2·g·μ·d)

Then they <em>tell</em> you that μ is 0.750 , and then they <em>tell</em> you that d = 52.9 m .  Also, everybody knows that 'g' is gravity = 9.8 m/s² .

They also tell us that the mass of the car is 1,000 kg, and they tell us that it took 3.8 seconds to skid to a stop.  But we already <em>have</em> all the numbers in the formula <em>without</em> knowing the car's mass or how long it took to stop.  The police don't need to weigh the car, and nobody was there to measure how long the car took to stop.  All they need is the length of the skid mark, which they can measure, and they'll know how fast the guy was going when he hit the brakes !

Now, can you take the numbers and plug them into the formula ? ! ?

v = √(2·g·μ·d)

v = √( 2 · 9.8 m/s² · 0.75 · 52.9 m)

v = √( 777.63 m²/s²)

v = 27.886 m/s

Rounded to 3 digits, that's  <em>27.9 m/s </em>.

That's about 62.4 mile/hour .
