An engineer in a locomotive sees a car stuck on the track at a railroad crossing in front of the train . When the engineer first

sees the car, the locomotive is 110 m from the crossing and its speed is 21 m/s . If the engineer's reaction time is 0.6 s, what should be the magnitude of the minimum de celeration to avoid an accident ? Answer in units of m/s^ 2

Answer:

Explanation:

distance traveled during reaction time

d = vt = 21(0.6) = 12.6 m

distance remaining 110 - 12.6 = 97.4 m

Assuming we want zero speed in 97.4 m using constant acceleration.

a = (0² - 21²) / 2(97.4) = - 2.2638603...

the negative value indicates acceleration opposes initial velocity.

magnitude is

a = 2.3 m/s²

Bradley gets an x-ray at a radiology clinic that employs its own technologists and radiologists. Would the coder at the clinic r
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

If Bradley examination was done and interpreted in the same facility, the radiologist code is used example- procedure code 72100- Radiologic examination, spine, lumbosacral, 2 or 3 views is reported.

if the X-ray was taken by Dr X but Dr X does not read or interpret the image but forward it to the radiologist for initial report, then a 26- modifier is used. E.g A reports by the technologist would be, procedure code 72050-Radiologic examination, spine, cervical, 2 or 3

views or 72050- TC in certain situations and the consulting radiologist would report 72050-26.

if Bradley’s x-ray were sent to an independent radiologist for interpretation, then the procedure code 76140 is used in reporting.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 0.281 m/s2 to the South for a time of 5.44 seconds. It then increases
andre [41]

Answer:

12.0 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a₁ = 0.281 m/s²

t₁ = 5.44 s

a₂ = 1.43 m/s²

t₂ = 2.42 s

Find: x

First, find the velocity reached at the end of the first acceleration.

v = at + v₀

v = (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s) + 0 m/s

v = 1.53 m/s

Next, find the position reached at the end of the first acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (5.44 s) + ½ (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s)²

x = 4.16 m

Finally, find the position reached at the end of the second acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 4.16 m + (1.53 m/s) (2.42 s) + ½ (1.43 m/s²) (2.42 s)²

x = 12.0 m

A sample of gas has a volume of 215 cm3 at 23.5 °c and 84.6 kpa. what volume (cm3 will the gas occupy at stp
Dafna11 [192]
The answer is 165.3 cm³.

P1 * V1 / T1 = P2 * V2 / T2

The initial sample:
P1 = 84.6 kPa
V1 = 215 cm³
T1 = 23.5°C = 23.5 + 273 K = 296.5 K

At STP:
P2 = 101.3 kPa
V2 = ?
T2 = 273 K

Therefore:
84.6 * 215 / 296.5 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
61.34 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
V2 = 61.34 * 273 / 101.3
V2 = 165.3 cm³
