Answer:

17.1

Explanation:

The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m

The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s

The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)

The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required

The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))

Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;

s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1

The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).

How can a driver steer a car traveling at constant speed so that the magnitude of the acceleration remains constant. (Assume tha
ratelena [41]

<h2>Circular path i.e 1</h2>

Explanation:

If the driver steer into circular path , the acceleration of car will be

acceleration = velocity²/radius  of circle

Because the velocity and radius of circle are both constant at all points . Thus the acceleration will also remain constant .

In case 3 and 4 , the radius of path changes . Because velocity is constant . Therefore the acceleration will not remain constant

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 220 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. If the current in each of the t
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1.86 N and the direction of force is towards the other wire.

Explanation:

Given:

Current flowing through each power line, I = 130 A

Distance between the two power lines, d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Length of power lines, L = 220 m

The force exerted by the power lines on each other is given by the relation:

F = \frac{\mu_{0}LII }{2\pi d}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F = \frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times220\times130\times130 }{2\pi\times0.4}

F = 1.86 N

Since the direction of current flowing through the power lines are opposite to each other, so the force is attractive in nature. Hence, the direction of force experienced by the power lines on each other is towards the each other.

1-Calculate Req
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

1. 21.66 Ohms

2.  3.38 A

3. 6.7 V

Explanation:

1. Req = 6+2 = 8 Ohms (2 and 6 are in a series circuit)

  Req = 1/8 +1/4 = 3/8 = 8/3 = 2.66 Ohms (8 and 4 are parallel, so we will add them using this equation)

  Req = 2.66 + 1 + 9 + 3 + 6 = 21.66 Ohms

2. I = V/R = 9/2.66 = 3.38 A (In a series circuit, the current is the same across the resistors, so we will add them and divided them by 9 volts)

3. V = IR = 3.38 x 2 = 6.7 V (In a series circuit, the voltage is different, so each resistor will have a different voltage.)

I hope this helps.  I am not an expert in physics but its ok :)

Is it possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas? Explain
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas.A process in which temperature of the gas remains constant is called Isothermal Process.For an ideal internal energy is a function of temperature therefore internal energy remains constant while all the heat added is converted to do the work done by the system.

How does gravity affect the motions of Earth and the Moon?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The Sun's gravitational pull keeps our planet orbiting the Sun. The motion of the Moon is affected by the gravity of the Sun and Earth. Moon's gravity pulls on the Earth and makes the tides rise and fall.
