Information that is given:
a = -5.4m/s^2
v0 = 25 m/s
---------------------
S = ?
Calculate the S(distance car traveled) with the formula for velocity of decelerated motion:
v^2 = v0^2 - 2aS
The velocity at the end of the motion equals zero (0) because the car stops, so v=0.
0 = v0^2 - 2aS
v0^2 = 2aS
S = v0^2/2a
S = (25 m/s)^2/(2×5.4 m/s^2)
S = (25 m/s)^2/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = (625 m^2/s^2)/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = 57.87 m
Place the magnet at one end of the piece of metal. The magnet must make as much contact with the metal as possible. Place light pressure on the magnet and rub the metal in one direction only. Magnetization will take some time to accomplish so continue rubbing until the iron or steel attracts other pieces of metal.
Answer:
Light slows down when it moves from air into water.
Explanation:
It is the property of light that travels faster in a less dense medium.
In a more dense medium, the speed of the light slows down and bends towards the normal.
The air is less dense medium and water is a more dense medium.
When light passes from air to water, the light bends.
This is known as the refraction of light.
Answer:
Yes, the calorie can be expressed in SI units
Explanation:
1 calorie (1 cal) is defined as the amount of heat energy that must be supplied to 1 gram of water in order to raise its temperature by 1 degree Celsius (
.
The calorie is not a unit of the International System (SI): the SI unit for the energy is the Joule (J).
However, it is possible to convert energy from calories to Joules, and viceversa. In fact, the conversion factor between the two units is:
1 calorie = 4.184 Joules
So, to convert from calories to Joules we simply multiply by 4.184, while if we want to convert from Joules to calories, we just divide by 4.184.
Newton's first law of motion is an object in motion stays in motion until acted upon by another force. Driving at 30 mph in a car is going to stay constant until you crash the car into a wall, stopping the car.
