You're driving down the highway late one night at 21 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35 m in front of you. Your reaction tim

e before stepping on the brakes is 0.50 s , and the maximum deceleration of your car is 10 m/ s 2.
How much distance is between you and the deer when you come to a stop?What is the maximum speed you could have and still not hit the deer?

Speed with which initially car is moving is 21 m/s

Reaction time = 0.50 s

distance traveled in the reaction time d = v t

d = 21 * 0.50 = 10.5 m

deceleration after this time = -10 m/s^2

now the distance traveled by the car after applying bakes

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a d

0 - 21^2 = 2(-10)d

d = 22.05 m

so total distance moved before it stop

d = 22.05 + 10.5 = 32.55 m

so the distance from deer is 35 - 32.55 = 2.45 m

now to find the maximum speed with we can move we will assume that we will just touch the deer when we stop

so our distance after brakes are applied is d = 35 - 10.5 = 24.5 m

again by kinematics

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 ad

0 - v^2 = 2(-10)(24.5)

v = 22.1 m/s

so maximum speed would be 22.1 m/s

Determine the normal boiling point of a substance whose vapor pressure is 55.1 mm hg at 35°c and has a δhvap of 32 .1 kj/mol. de
atroni [7]
Classius claperyon equation
In (P2/ P2) = ΔHvap/R) × (1/T2-1/T1)
T2 occurs at normal boiling when vapor pressure P2 = 1 atm.
P1 = 55.1 mmHg, P2 = 1 atm = 760mmHg
T1 = 35°c = 308.15k, T2 =
ΔHvap = 32.1kJ/mol = 32100 J/mol
In (760/55.1) = (-32100/ 8.314) × ( 1/T2 - 1/308.15)
The normal boiling point T2 = 390k = 117°c

How much force does it take to bring a 1,375 N car from rest to a velocity of 26 m/s in 6 seconds?
V125BC [204]

Explanation:

<u>Mass of car</u> = 137.5 kg

<u>Acceleration</u> = v - u / t = 26 - 0 / 6 = 4.33 m/sec^2

Force = m * a = 137.5 * 4.33 = 595.3 N
