I think you're saying that once you start pushing on the cars, you want to be able to stop each one in the same time.
This is sneaky. At first, I thought it must be both 'c' and 'd'. But it's not
kinetic energy, for reasons I'm not ambitious enough to go into.
(And besides, there's no great honor awarded around here for explaining
why any given choice is NOT the answer.)
The answer is momentum.
Momentum is (mass x speed). Change in momentum is (force x time).
No matter the weight (mass) or speed of the car, the one with the greater
momentum is always the one that will require the greater (force x time)
to stop it. If the time is the same for any car, then more momentum
will always require more force.
First, create an illustration of the motion of the two cars as shown in the attached picture. The essential equations used is
For constant acceleration:
a = v,final - v,initial /t
The solutions is as follows:
a = v,final - v,initial /t
3.8 = (v - 0)/2.8 s
v = 10.64 m/s After 2.8 seconds, the speed of the blue car is 10.64 m/s.
Answer:
F. 25.82 s
Explanation:
Given:
Δy = 90 m
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 0.27 m/s²
Find: t
Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²
90 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.27 m/s²) t²
t = 25.82 s
Answer:
approximately 304358
Explanation:
wavelength = speed / frequency
speed of an electromagnetic wave is 299,792,458 m/s in a vacuum
The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and <span>inversely</span> proportional to its wavelength.
