The driver of a car travels at 90 km / h, observes some children playing on the road 50 m away, and applies the brakes, managing

to stop 4 seconds later, if the total mass of the driver-vehicle system is 2200 kg What was the force developed by the brakes? Was there an accident? Explain with mathematical arguments, please help.

Answer:

13,750 N

Yes

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 4 s

Find: a and Δx

a = Δv / Δt

a = (0 m/s − 25 m/s) / (4 s)

a = -6.25 m/s²

F = ma

F = (2200 kg) (-6.25 m/s²)

F = -13,750 N

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

Δx = ½ (0 m/s + 25 m/s) (4 s)

Δx = 50 m

gold has a density of 19.32g/cm^3. aluminum has a density of 2.7g/cm^3. which is heavier: 1g of gold or 1 g of aluminum? explain
DENIUS [597]
Gold is much heavier because it has a greater density, meaning the atoms are more closely packed. Also, the individual atoms are heavy as well making 1g of gold heavier than 1g of aluminum.

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4 m/s to 13 m/s in a period of 3 s. What is your acceleration?
iogann1982 [59]

The acceleration formula goes like this: a= (vf-vi)/t so it would be (13-4)/3 Thus the answer is 3m/s^2

What is the frequency of a wave having a period equal to 18 seconds <br>​
Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

The relation between wave period and frequency is as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

f

1

where, T = time period

f = frequency

It is given that wave period is 18 seconds. Therefore, calculate the wave period as follows.

T = \frac{1}{f}T=

f

1

or, f = \frac{1}{T}f=

T

1

= \frac{1}{18 sec}

18sec

1

= 0.055 per second (1cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

or, f = 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz

<h3>Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 \times 10^{-2} hertz5.5×10 −2 hertz .</h3>
