Determine the energy lost, due to friction, as an 8000 N car that skids to a stop, if its initial velocity was 12 m/s.

Answer:

<em>58,800Joules</em>

Explanation:

The energy lost is equal to the workdone by the car as it skids.

Workdone = Force * Distance

Given

Force = 8000N

Get the distance using the equation of motion

v² = u² - 2gS

0² = 12² - 2(9.8)S

-12² =  - 2(9.8)S

-144 = -19.6S

S = 144/19.6

S = 7.35m

Calculate the required energy

Workdone = 8000 * 7.35

Workdone = 58,800Joules

<em>Hence the energy lost due to friction is 58,800Joules</em>

sasho [114]
Since there are four states, then the grand partition function of the system is

Z = 1+2 e^{(0.55eV+ \alpha )/kT} +e^{(1.3eV+ 2\alpha )/kT}

where α is the chemical potential

Then, the occupancy of the system is

bar \ n=(e^{(0.55eV+ \alpha )/kT} +e^{(1.3eV+ 2\alpha )/kT})/Z

Then using this equation, \alpha =-kT(V Z_{int} /N v_{Q}) and approximating Z_int to be kT/0.00018 eV, the model would look as that attached in the figure. That is the occupancy vs. pressure graph. 

There are more occupancies when the oxygen is high (high pressure) especially in the lungs. Heme sites tend to be occupied by oxygen.

What is population inversion and what is laser inversion?
hoa [83]

Answer:

Population inversion, in physics, the redistribution of atomic energy levels that takes place in a system so that laser action can occur. Although absorption and emission of energy is a continuous process, the statistical distribution (population) of atoms in the various energy states is constant. ...

laser inversion is photon that can stimulate the production of other photons of exactly the same wavelength because of stimulated emission of radiation.

vlada-n [284]

The answer is C. nebular are star nurseries. When the massive gas being collapsing in its own weight. Local areas of gas begin to coalesce under gravity. Due to enormous pressure, nuclear fusion begins and a protostar is formed. The protostar grows into the sun as more hydrogen fuses at the core. The planetesimal materials at the edges of the protostellar discs coalesce to form planets that orbit the star.

Sophie [7]

Answer:

442.36038 m or 1451.31362 ft

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 30.15 inHg

P_2 = Final pressure = 28.607 inHg

\rho = Density of air  = 0.075 lb/ft³

1\ lb/ft^3=16.0185\ kg/m^3

1\ in=0.0254\ m

1\ m=3.28084\ ft

Density of mercury = 13560 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Difference in pressure is given by

P_1-P_2=\rho gh\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{P_1-P_2}{\rho g}\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{(30.15-28.607)\times 13560\times 0.0254\times 9.81}{0.075\times 16.0185\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\ m\\\Rightarrow h=442.36038\times 3.28084\\\Rightarrow h=1451.31362\ ft

The height of the building is 442.36038 m or 1451.31362 ft
