Explanation:

Okay soo-

Given-

u = 60 km/hr = 60×1000/3600=50/3 m/s

t = 20 s

s = 250 m

a = ?

v = ?

Solution -

Here, acceleration is uniform.

(a) According to 2nd kinematics equation,

s = ut + ½at^2

250 = 50/3 ×20 + 0.5×a×20×20

250-1000/3=200a

(750-1000)/3=200a

a = -250/(3×200)

a = -5/12

a = 0.4167 m/s^2

The required uniform acceleration of the car is 0.4167 m/s^2.

(b) According to 1st kinematics equation

v = u + at

v = 50/3 + (-5/12)×20

v = 50/3-25/3

v = 25/3

v = 8.33 m/s

The speed of the car as it passes the traffic light is 8.33 m/s.

Good luck!

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a)

The crack and connecting rod is used in the design of car.This mechanism is known as slider -crank mechanism.

Components:

1.Inlet tube

2. Wheel

3. Exhaust

4. Engine

5.Air tank

6.Pressure gauge

7.Stand

8. Gate valve

b)

The efficiency of air engine is less as compare to efficiency of electric engine and this is not ecofriendly because it produce green house gases.These gases affect the environment.

c)

it can run around 722 km when it is full charge.
