You are traveling on an interstate highway at the posted speed limit of 70 mph when you see that the traffic in front of you has
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:8.75 s,

136.89 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity=70 mph\approx 31.29 m/s

velocity after 5 s is 30 mph\approx 13.41 m/s

Therefore acceleration during these 5 s

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

a=\frac{13.41-31.29}{5}=-3.576 m/s^2

therefore time required to stop

v=u+at

here v=final velocity =0 m/s

initial velocity =31.29 m/s

0=31.29-3.576\times t

t=\frac{31.29}{3.576}=8.75 s

(b)total distance traveled before stoppage

v^2-u^2=2as

0^2-31.29^2=2\times (-3.576)\cdot s

s=136.89 m

In both the camera and the __________, light enters a narrow opening and is projected onto a photosensitive surface. Group of an
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer: The HUMAN EYE

Explanation:

The human eye is made up of different parts which ranges from controlling the amount of light that enters the eye to the focusing of the image that is formed. The camera is a device which is both mechanically and electronically operated which shares a number of similarities with the eye.

In the human eye, the IRIS helps to regulate the amount of rays passing through the pupil to the lens by either contracting or dilating in light or dark environment respectively. While in the camera, the DIAPHRAGM controls the amount of light entering the camera.

The PUPIL serves as the passage for light into the eye while in the camera, the APERTURE does the same.

The photosensitive surface in the eye is the YELLOW SPOT while in the camera, the photosensitive surface is the PHOTOGRAPHIC FILM.

A frog jumps for 4.0 seconds at a maximum horizontal distance of 0.8m. what is its velocity along the road?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The frog's horizontal velocity is 0.2 m/s.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must first remember what velocity is and how we solve for it.  Velocity can be solved for using the formula x/t, where x represents horizontal distance and t represents time (in seconds), that it takes to travel this distance.  If we plug in the given numbers for these variables and solve, we get the following:

v = x/t

v = 0.8m/4s

v = 0.2 m/s

Therefore, the correct answer is 0.2 m/s.  We can verify that these units are correct because the formula calls for distance divided by time, so meters per second is a sensible answer.

Hope this helps!

How much time does it take a person to walk 12km north at the velocity at a velocity of 6.5 km/hrs?
alukav5142 [94]

"6.5 km/hr" is not a velocity.  It's just a speed, so
we don't know what direction he's walking.

If he happens to be walking north, then it takes him

               (12 km) / (6.5 km/hr)  =  1.846... hours  (rounded) .

If he's walking in any other direction, it takes him longer than that.

If the angle between north and the direction he's walking is
90 degrees or more, then he can never cover any northward
distance, no matter how long he walks.
