An initially motionless test car is accelerated to 115 km/h in 8.58 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in contact wi

th the faux fawn for 0.815 s, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 60.0 km/h. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the care before the collision? What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the collision?

Answer:

a)       a = 3.72 m / s², b)    a = -18.75 m / s²

Explanation:

a) Let's use kinematics to find the acceleration before the collision

             v = v₀ + at

as part of rest the v₀ = 0

             a = v / t

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              v = 115 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s)

              v = 31.94 m / s

              v₂ = 60 km / h = 16.66 m / s

l

et's calculate

             a = 31.94 / 8.58

             a = 3.72 m / s²

b) For the operational average during the collision let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

            I = Δp

            F Δt = m v_f - m v₀

            F = \frac{m ( v_f - v_o)}{t}

            F = m [16.66 - 31.94] / 0.815

            F = m (-18.75)

Having the force let's use Newton's second law

            F = m a

            -18.75 m = m a

             a = -18.75 m / s²

A straight wire of length 0.53 m carries a conventional current of 0.2 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
olga55 [171]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of wire, l = 0.53 m

Current, I = 0.2 A

(1.) Approximate formula:

We need to find the magnitude of the magnetic field made by the current at a location 2.0 cm from the wire, r = 2 cm = 0.02 m

The formula for magnetic field at some distance from the wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}

B=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 0.2\ A}{2\pi \times 0.02\ m}

B = 0.000002 T

B=10^{-5}\ T

(2) Exact formula:

B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}\dfrac{l}{\sqrt{l^2+4r^2} }

B=\dfrac{\mu_o\times 0.2\ A}{2\pi \times 0.02\ m}\times \dfrac{0.53\ m}{\sqrt{(0.53\ m)^2+4(0.02\ m)^2} }

B = 0.00000199 T

or

B = 0.000002 T

Hence, this is the required solution.

Orbital velocity is the average speed of a planet moving through space in its orbit around the sun. Which of the following plane
labwork [276]

The force of gravity is equal to the mass times centripetal acceleration.

Fg = m v^2 / r

The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:

Fg = mMG / r^2

Therefore:

mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r

MG / r = v^2

v increases as r decreases. So the planet with the smallest orbit (closest to the sun) will have the highest orbital velocity. Of the four options, that's Mercury.

4.00 kg glass coffee cup is 30.0°C at room temperature. It is then plunged into hot dishwater at a temperature of 90.0°C, as sho
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Q = 200800 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 4kg

Initial temperature = 30.0°C

Final temperature = 90.0°C

Specific heat capacity of glass = 837 J/kg°C

To find the quantity of heat absorbed;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 90 - 30

dt = 60°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

Q = 4*837*60

Q = 200800 Joules.

Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed is 200800 Joules.
