Answer:

0.0675 seconds

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t.................... Equation 1

Where F = force exert by the brake, v = final speed, u = initial speed m = mass of the bicycle, t = time.

make t the subject of the equation

t = m(v-u)/F................... Equation 2

Given: m = 180 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop), F = -1600 N ( agianst the dirction of motion)

Substitute these value into equation 2

t = 180(0-6.0)/-1600

t = -1080/-1600

t = 0.0675 seconds.

In a collision, a 15 kg object moving with a velocity of 3 m/s transfers some of its momentum to a 5 kg object. What would be th

Misha Larkins [42]

The key to solve this problem is the conservation of momentum. The momentum of an object is defined as the product between the mass and the velocity, and it's usually labelled with the letter $p$ :

$p=mv$

The total momentum is the sum of the momentums. The initial situation is the following:

$m_A=15,\quad v_A=3,\quad m_B=5,\quad v_B=0$

(it's not written explicitly, but I assume that the 5-kg object is still at the beginning).

So, at the beginning, the total momentum is

$p=m_Av_A+m_Bv_B=15\cdot 3+5\cdot 0=45$

At the end, we have

$m_A=15,\quad v_A=1,\quad m_B=5,\quad v_B=x$

(the mass obviously don't change, the new velocity of the 15-kg object is 1, and the velocity of the 5-kg object is unkown)

After the impact, the total momentum is

$p=m_Av_A+m_Bv_B=15\cdot 1+5\cdot x=15+5x$

Since the momentum is preserved, the initial and final momentum must be the same. Set an equation between the initial and final momentum and solve it for $x$ , and you'll have the final velocity of the 5-kg object.

givi [52]

Answer:

Social, physical behavior

Explanation:

The relational aggression is the aggression which caused or give to person by doing harm to his or her relationship or social image.

Reactive aggression is the aggression which is caused by threatening someone, or caused by provocation, or caused due to frustration.

Therefore, the basic differentiation in between both the aggression is that relational aggression is caused by by damaging social status whereas reactive aggression is caused through physical behavior.

Determine

djyliett [7]

(i) The total capacitance for the circuit is 5 μF.

(ii) The total charge stored in the circuit is 1 x 10⁻⁴ C.

(iii) The charge stored in 3μF capacitor is 6 x 10⁻⁶ C.

<h3>Total capacitance of the circuit</h3>

The total capacitance of the circuit is determined by reolving the series capacitors separate and parallel capacitors separate as well.

<h3>C1 and C2 are in series </h3>

$\frac{1}{C_{12}} = \frac{1}{C_1 } + \frac{1}{C_2} \\\\\frac{1}{C_{12}} = \frac{1}{4 } + \frac{1}{4} \\\\\frac{1}{C_{12}} = \frac{1}{2} \\\\C_{12} = 2 \ \mu F$

<h3>C1 and C2 are parallel to C3</h3>

$C_{123} = C_{12} + C_3\\\\C_{123} = 2\ \mu F + 2\ \mu F \\\\C_{123} = 4 \ \mu F$

<h3>C(123) is series to C5 and C6</h3>

$\frac{1}{C_{t} } = \frac{1}{C_{123}} + \frac{1}{C_5} + \frac{1}{C_6} \\\\\frac{1}{C_{t} } = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} \\\\\frac{1}{C_{t} } = \frac{12}{24} \\\\\frac{1}{C_{t} } = \frac{1}{2} \\\\C_t = 2 \ \mu F$
