A car, initially traveling at 81.8 mi/h, slows to rest in 7.1 s. What is the car's acceleration?

Physics

Answer:

a = -16.9 ft/s²

Explanation:

81.8 mi/hr(5280 ft/mi / 3600s/hr) = 120 ft/s

a = Δv/t = (0 - 120) / 7.1 = -16.9 ft/s²

if the initial direction is taken as the positive direction.

Carol drops a stone in a mine shaft 122.5 metres deep.How
Verizon [17]

Answer:

 T = 5.36 s

Explanation:

given,

depth of the mine shaft = 122.5 m

speed of the sound = 340 m/s

time taken  = ?

time taken by the stone to reach at the bottom

using equation of motion

s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

initial speed , u = 0 m/s

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 122.5}{9.8}}

       t = 5 s

time taken by the sound to travel

    d =v x t

 t = \dfrac{d}{v}

 t = \dfrac{122.5}{340}

    t = 0.36 s

total time taken for the sound to reach carol after dropping the stone

T = 5 + 0.36

 T = 5.36 s

An L-R-C series circuit, R = 160 Ω , L = 0.790 H , and C = 1.30×10−2 μF . The source has a voltage amplitude of 140 V and a freq
wolverine [178]

Answer: a) 1 b) 61 W c) 61 W

Explanation:

a) The  Power Factor (also known as cos φ), is defined by the difference in phase between current and voltage, in a RLC series circuit, and is expressed as follows:

cos φ = R / Z = R / \sqrt{(R)^{2} + (Xl -Xc)^{2} }

In resonance, XL =XC, so the circuit behaves like it were purely resistive, so Z=R.

Replacing in the expression for power factor, we have:

cos φ = R/Z = R/R = 1

This means that in resonance, current and voltage are in phase each other.

b) The average power delivered by the source, in resonance, is simply the power dissipated at the resistance R, as follows:

Pavg = V² rms / R = V₀² / √2 / R = 61 W

c) If the circuit remains in resonance, the average power , which does not depends on frequency provided this condition remains, keeps the same, i.e. , 61 W.

Convert the number from scientific into standard notation: 5.9 x 10-2
guapka [62]
Move the decimal point to:
Left : (if the exponent of ten is a negative number -) ... OUR CASE HERE (-2)
or to
Right : (if the exponent is positive +).

You should move the point as many times as the exponent indicates.
Do not write the power of ten anymore.

So, standard form is:
Two points to the left {Exponent of Ten is Negative (-2)}
0.059 ... (without the 10)

What is solid matter and can we covert matter into something else
lbvjy [14]

Answer: Solid matter is one of the three main states of matter, along with liquid and gas. Matter is the "stuff" of the universe, the atoms, molecules and ions that make up all physical substances. In a solid, these particles are packed closely together and are not free to move about within the substance.

All matter exists as solids, liquids, or gases. These are called the states of matter. Matter can change from one state to another if heated or cooled. If ice (a solid) is heated it changes to water (a liquid).
