Answer:

Work = 165670.4 J = 165.67 KJ

Explanation:

First, we will find the deceleration of the car, using the 3rd equation of motion:

2as = v_{f}^2 - v_{i}^2\\

where,

a = deceleration = ?

s = skid distance = 40 m

vf = final speed = 0 m/s

vi = initial speed = 17.2 m/s

Therefore,

2a(40\ m) = (0\ m/s)^2 - (17.2\ m/s)^2\\a = - 3.698\ m/s^2

the negative sign indicates deceleration here.

Now, we will calculate the braking force applied by the brakes on the car:

F = ma\\F = (1120\ kg)(-3.698\ m/s^2)\\F = - 4141.76\ N

the negative sign indicates braking force.

Now, we will calculate the work done using the magnitude of this force:

Work = |F|s\\Work = (4141.76\ N)(40\ m)\\

<u>Work = 165670.4 J = 165.67 KJ</u>

Elden [556K]
<h2>Diagonal of circle </h2>

Explanation:

As the skateboarder wants to cross the play ground . The surface is rough .

As we know , the force of friction is non-conservative force . Thus work is required against this force .

We have formula:

work done = Force x distance (in one direction )

Te force applied cannot be changed , so he is to decrease the distance .

In case of circle , diameter is the minimum distance . Thus he is supposed to move along it .

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The decision designer is a step-wise process

Explanation:

A typical decision tree will be like this:

Are there any forces?

YES - then calculate the resultant forces              NO - Then no calculations are needed

IF YES - Are the forces balanced?                         NO - Then no calculations

IF YES - Then calculations can be done.

Resolve the forces to find the resultant of the forces in the question.

What is the difference between resilience and modulus of resilience
pshichka [43]
<span>Resilience is the amount of energy that can be put into a volume of material and still be stored elastically. ie When the energy goes away, the material regains its undeformed shape. The Mod of R is the amount that can be stored by a unit volume of that material. The Mod of R is heavily related to Youngs Modulus.</span>

Suppose you want to to double a copper wire's resistance. To what temperature, in degrees Celsius, must you raise it if it is or
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

T=280.41 °C

Explanation:

Given that

At T= 24°C Resistance =Ro

Lets take at temperature T resistance is 2Ro

We know that resistance R given as

R= Ro(1+αΔT)

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

For copper wire

α(coefficient of Resistance) = 3.9 x 10⁻³ /°C

Given that at temperature T

R= 2Ro

Now by putting the values

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

2Ro-Ro=Ro αΔT

1 = αΔT

1 = 3.9 x 10⁻³ x ΔT

ΔT = 256.41 °C

T- 24 = 256.41 °C

T=280.41 °C

So the final temperature is 280.41 °C.
