Explanation:
initial velocity(u) = 90 km/s = 25 m/s
time (t) = 5 sec
mass (m) = 200 kg
final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
v = u + at
0 = 25 + a * 5
-25 = 5 a
-5 = a
Therefore acceleration = -5m/s²
Force = mass * acceleration
F = 200*-5
F = -1000 N
Answer:
the mechanical equivalent of heat states that motion and heat are mutually interchangeable and that in every case
Explanation:
Putting gas in your car is one way you are using non-renewable resources.
You could Reduce, Recycle and Re-use items. You could manage what you do with you're water. Reducing and reusing products cuts down on manufacturing pollution, just as the use of recycled instead of virgin materials prevents pollution in industrial processes. You could add food coloring to your toilet tank. You could also do this: use sprinkler heads that sprinkle mist out instead of droplets of water. to avoid losing water to evaporation.
Hello
Here we must use the equation of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2as; where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is the acceleratoin and is the distance travelled.
We select this one because the time of collision is unknown to us.
We know the truck stopped so its final velocity is 0; thus v = 0.
Converting the initial velocity to SI units, we get 3.89 m/s.
The distance traveled, s, is 0.062 meters.
Inserting all of these values into the equation,
0 = (3.89)^2 + 2(a)(0.062)
and solving for a, we get a to be
-122.0 ms^(-2)
The negative sign indicates the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the initial motion, which means the truck decelerated. This is consistent with the given condition.
