Answer:10 km westExplanation:he go 40 east then 50 west 50-40 is 10 so he displaces 10 km and as west is more than east in terms of km so we will say that it's 10 km west pls mark as brainliest thanks

Two cars are traveling along a straight line in the same direction, the lead car at 25 m/s and the other car at 35 m/s. At the m
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a. t_1=12.5\ s

b. a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2}  must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

c. t_2=2.5714\ s is the time taken to stop after braking

Explanation:

Given:

  • speed of leading car, u_1=25\ m.s^{-1}
  • speed of lagging car, u_{2}=35\ m.s^{-1}
  • distance between the cars, \Delta s=45\ m
  • deceleration of the leading car after braking, a_1=-2\ m.s^{-2}

a.

Time taken by the car to stop:

v_1=u_1+a_1.t_1

where:

v_1=0 , final velocity after braking

t_1= time taken

0=25-2\times t_1

t_1=12.5\ s

b.

using the eq. of motion for the given condition:

v_2^2=u_2^2+2.a_2.\Delta s

where:

v_2= final velocity of the chasing car after braking = 0

a_2= acceleration of the chasing car after braking

0^2=35^2+2\times a_2\times 45

a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2} must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

c.

time taken by the chasing car to stop:

v_2=u_2+a_2.t_2

0=35-13.61\times t_2

t_2=2.5714\ s  is the time taken to stop after braking

When light in vacuum is incident at the polarizing angle (Brewster's angle) on a certain glass slab, the angle of refraction is
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

θ( p ) + θ( r ) = 90  

θ (r) = angle of refraction and θ ( p ) is polarising angle.

given θ ( r ) = 31.8

θ ( p ) = 90 - 31.8 = 58.2 degree

ii ) Tanθ ( p ) = n ( refractive index ) = Tan 58.2 = 1.6

A tank of gasoline (n = 1.40) is open to the air (n = 1.00). A thin film of liquid floats on the gasoline and has a refractive i
klio [65]

Answer:

1.08

Explanation:

This is the case of interference in thin films in which interference bands are formed due to constructive interference of two reflected light waves , one from upper layer and the other from lower layer . If t be the thickness and μ be the refractive index then

path difference created will be 2μ t.

For light coming from rarer to denser medium , a phase change of π occurs additionally after reflection from denser medium, here, two times, once from upper layer and then from the lower layer ,  so for constructive interference

path diff = nλ , for minimum t , n =1

path diff = λ

2μ t. =  λ

μ = λ / 2t

= 626 / 2 x 290

= 1.08

How do you solving kinematic equations for horizontal projectiles?
daser333 [38]
See projectiles are very simple unless you understand its core concepts....projectile is nothing just mixture of upward motion and horizontal motion....
THE KEY IS FORGET THE NAME PROJECTILE...ITS JUST HORIZONTAL MOTION + VERTICAL MOTION
