Answer:
The driver hits the stationery dog because the applied force is less than required force
Explanation:
Kinetic energy will be given by
where m is the mass of the vehicle and v is the speed/velocity of the vehicle.
Substituting 800 Kg for m and 20 m/s for v we obtain
Frictional force by vehicle pads is given by
where d is the distance moved
Substituting 160000 for KE and 50 m for d we obtain
Therefore, the vehicle hits the dog since the required force is 3200N but the driver applied only 2000 N
Answer:
<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>
<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>
Explanation:
Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft
difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft
a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.
According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,
your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>
b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.
the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,
the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,
therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>
