A car is traveling at 20 m/s and a dog runs out in front

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of the car you can use this formula and rearrange :

vf = vi + at

We know that our time is 2 seconds, our initial velocity, vi, is 20 m/s, and our final velocity vf is 0 because the car comes to a stop before hitting the dog.

So we can just go ahead and plug in these values into the equation above :

0m/s = 20m/s + (a)(2s)

-20m/s = 2s(a)

Divide both sides by 2

-10m/s^2 = a

Therefore the acceleration of the car is -10m/s^2 [forward]

You could also write this as 10m/s^2 [back]

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

A pumpkin is thrown horizontally off of a building at a speed of 2.5 m/s and travels a horizontal distance of 12 m before hittin

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

-47.04

Explanation:

Divide 12 m by 2.5 m/s which equals 4.8s

And then use 4.8s to multiply it with -9.8

4.8(-9.8)= -47.04 m/s

Hope this helped!! :)

At 19°C, a rod is exactly 19.11 cm long on a steel ruler. Both the rod and the ruler are placed in an oven at 280°C, where the r

Ratling [72]

Answer:

$\alpha = 4.12 \times 10^{-5} per Degree C$

Explanation:

As we know that when we increase the temperature of the rod and the ruler then in that case there will be change in the length of the both.

Due to this the ruler measurement is different from actual length of the rod

So by thermal expansion we know that

$L = L_o(1 +\alpha \Delta T)$

$L = 19.11 (1 + \alpha(280 - 19))$

$L = 19.11(1 + 261\alpha)$

Now for length of unit division of steel scale

$1 unit = 1( 1 + \alpha_s \Delta T)$

$1 unit = (1 + (11 \times 10^{-6})(280 - 19))$

$1 unit = 1.0029$

now the measured length from the scale is given as

$L_{measured} = \frac{L}{1.0029}$

$L_{measured} = \frac{19.11(1 + 261\alpha)}{1.0029}$

$19.26 = \frac{19.11(1 + 261\alpha)}{1.0029}$

$\alpha = 4.12 \times 10^{-5} per Degree C$

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

11405Volt

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concept related to induced voltage or electromotive force measured in volts. Through this force it is possible to maintain a potential difference between two points in an open circuit or to produce an electric current in a closed circuit.

The equation that allows the calculation of this voltage is given by,

$\epsilon = BAN \omega$
