Answer:

The heavier something is, the harder it is to slow down. As such, higher amounts of mass result in a lower rate of slowing.

A 60kg student traveling in a 1000kg car with a constant velocity has a kinetic energy of 1.2 x 10^4 J. What is the speedometer

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

17.64 km/h

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

Kinetic energy of car, K = 1.2 x 10^4 J

Let the speed of car is v.

Use the formula for kinetic energy.

$K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

By substituting the values

$1.2\times 10^{4} = \frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times v^{2}$

v = 4.9 m/s

Now convert metre per second into km / h

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 second

So, $v = \left (\frac{4.9}{1000} \right )\times \left ( \frac{3600}{1} \right )$

v = 17.64 km/h

Thus, the reading of speedometer is 17.64 km/h.

At which angle must a laser beam enter the water for no refraction to occur?

abruzzese [7]

Light that enters the new medium <em>perpendicular to the surface</em> keeps sailing straight through the new medium unrefracted (in the same direction).

Perpendicular to the surface is the "normal" to the surface. So the angle of incidence (angle between the laser and the normal) is zero, and the law of refraction (just like the law of reflection) predicts an angle of zero between the normal and the refracted (or the reflected) beam.

Moral of the story: If you want your laser to keep going in the same direction after it enters the water, or to bounce back in the same direction it came from when it hits the mirror, then shoot it <em>straight on</em> to the surface, perpendicular to it.

A rocket sled accelerates from rest for a distance of 645 m at 16.0 m/s2. A parachute is then used to slow it down to a stop. If

inessss [21]

Answer:

the stopping distance is greater than the free length of the track, the vehicle leaves the track before it can brake

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the kinematics relations, let's start by finding the final velocity of the acceleration period

v² = v₀² + 2 a₁ x

indicate that the initial velocity is zero

v² = 2 a₁ x

let's calculate

v = $\sqrt {2 \ 15.0 \ 645}$

v = 143.666 m / s

now for the second interval let's find the distance it takes to stop

v₂² = v² - 2 a₂ x₂

in this part the final velocity is zero (v₂ = 0)

0 = v² - 2 a₂ x₂

x₂ = v² / 2a₂

let's calculate

x₂ = $\frac{ 143.666^2 }{2 \ 18.2}$

x₂ = 573 m

as the stopping distance is greater than the free length of the track, the vehicle leaves the track before it can brake
