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!

Match the military operation to the category of satellite that would perform it.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

1. Location of enemy ground troops - EARTH OBSERVING.

Using earth observing satellite imagery, the military can observe vast expanses of land and in so doing, find the location of enemy ground troops.

2. Routine reconnaissance of an unfamiliar climate - WEATHER

In other to find out more about the climate of an area, a weather satellite can be used to observe the areas and its changing weather patterns.

3. Analyze waterways in an unfamiliar location - NAVIGATION

Using navigation satellites, navigation conduits such as roads and waterways can be observed.

4. Provide warning of an attack - COMMUNICATION.

Communications satellites enable people to communicate over great distances and so can be used by the military to warn of an impending attack.

Four kilograms of carbon monoxide (CO) is contained in a rigid tank with a volume of 1 m3. The tank is fitted with a paddle whee

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) 1 m^3/Kg

b) 504 kJ

c) 514 kJ

Explanation:

Given

-The mass of C_o2 = 1 kg

-The volume of the tank V_tank = 1 m^3

-The added energy E = 14 W

-The time of adding energy t = 10 s

-The increase in specific internal energy Δu = +10 kJ/kg

-The change in kinetic energy ΔKE = 0 and The change in potential energy

ΔPE =0

Required

(a)Specific volume at the final state v_2

(b)The energy transferred by the work W in kJ.

(c)The energy transferred by the heat transfer W in kJ and the direction of

the heat transfer.

Assumption

-Quasi-equilibrium process.

Solution

(a) The volume and the mass doesn't change then, the specific volume is constant.

v= V_tank/m ---> 1/1= 1 m^3/Kg

(b) The added work is defined by.

W =E * t ---> 14 x 10 x 3600 x 10^-3 = 504 kJ

(c) From the first law of thermodynamics.

Q - W = m * Δu

Q = (m * Δu) + W--> (1 x 10) + 504 = 514 kJ

The heat have (+) sign the n it is added to the system.

What is the instantaneous center of zero velocity? List two approaches for determining the is the instantaneous center of zero v

Lera25 [3.4K]

Explanation:

Instantaneous center:

It is the center about a body moves in planer motion.The velocity of Instantaneous center is zero and Instantaneous center can be lie out side or inside the body.About this center every particle of a body rotates.

From the diagram

Where these two lines will cut then it will the I-Center.Point A and B is moving perpendicular to the point I.

If we take three link link1,link2 and link3 then I center of these three link will be in one straight line It means that they will be co-linear.

$I_{12},I_{23},I_{31} all\ are\ co-linear.$
