Answer:The answer is B , 0.20 m/s south
Explanation:
Not sure what you're referring to... our atmosphere is mostly nitrogen/oxygen - both gases were created by very massive stars, many times greater than our sun - our sun isn't massive enough to create the gases needed for our atmosphere...
Answer:
- Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 20 m
- The time required for you to stop once you press the brakes = less than 5 s in order not to hit the deer.
Explanation:
Using the equations of motion,
In the 0.5 s reaction time, we need to first calculate how far he has travelled in that time.
a = 0 m/s² (Since the car is travelling at constant velocity)
x = ?
Initial velocity = u = 20 m/s
x = ut + at²/2
x = 20×0.5 + 0 = 10 m
From that moment,
a = - 10 m/s²
u = initial velocity at the start of the deceleration = 10 m/s
v = final velocity = 0 m/s
x = ?
v² = u² + 2ax
0² = 10² + 2(-10)(x)
20x = 100
x = 5 m
Total distance travelled from when the deer stepped onto the road = 10 + 5 = 15 m
Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 35 - 15 = 20 m
b) To determine the time required to stop once you step on the brakes
u = 10 m/s
t = ?
v = 0 m/s²
x = distance from when the brake was stepped on to the deer = 35 - 10 = 25 m
x = (u + v)t/2
25 = (10 + 0)t/2
10t = 50
t = 5 s
Meaning the time required to stop once you step on the brakes is less than 5s.
Answer:
Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg
Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)
Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground
v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s
KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules
One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
