WHAT IS THE SPEED OF LIGHT?

Physics
1 answer:
GuDViN [60]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

speed of light: 299,792,458

what does light travel fasted through?: Light will have the fastest velocity when it travels through the air. Light will have the slowest velocity when it travels through gelatin. Why? Light slows down when passing through different transparent materials. The more it slows down, the more it bends when it hits a medium made of that material

A ball is thrown upward from a height of 432 feet above the​ ground, with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. From physic
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer;

A)S(t)=96t-16t² +432

B)it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)864feet

Explanation:

We were given an initial height of 432 feet.

And v(t)= 96-32t

A) we are to Find​ s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t

The position, or heigth, is the integrative of the velocity. So

S(t)= ∫(96-32)dt

S(t)=96t-16t² +K

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

In which the constant of integration K is the initial height, so K= 432

b) we need to know how long will the ball take to reach the​ ground

This is t when S(t)= 0

S(t)=96t-16t² +432

-16t² +96t +432=0

This is quadratic equation, if you solve using factorization method we have

t= -3 or t= 9

Therefore, , t is the instant of time and it must be a positive value.

So it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.

C)V=s/t

Velocity= distance/ time

=96=s/9sec

S=96×9

=864feet

What is the work done by a car's braking system when it slows the 1500-kg car from an initial speed of 96 km/h down to 56 km/h i
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

-352.275KJ

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of car=1500kg

Initial speed of car =u=96 km/h=96\times \frac{5}{18}=26.67m/s

1km/h=\frac{5}{18}m/s

Final speed of car=v=56km/h=56\times \frac{5}{18}=15.56m/s

Distance traveled by car=s=55m

We have to find the work done by the car's braking system.

Using third equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

(15.56)^2-(26.67)^2=2a(55)

-469.18=110a

a=\frac{-469.18}{110}=-4.27m/s^2

Where negative sign indicates that velocity of car decreases.

Work done by a car's barking system=w=F\times s=ma\times s

Work done by a car's barking system=1500\times -4.27\times 55=352275J

Work done by a car's barking system=-\frac{352275}{1000}=-352.275KJ

1KJ=1000J

Where negative sign indicates that work done in opposite direction of motion.
