In the first 7.00 seconds, the car travels a distance of

1/2 (1.20 m/s²) (7.00 s)² = 29.4 m

and after this time it will have reached a speed of

(1.20 m/s²) (7.00 s) = 8.40 m/s

Afterwards, the car slows to a stop under uniform acceleration, so that

0² - (8.40 m/s)² = 2 (-4.25 m/s²) <em>x</em>

where <em>x</em> is the distance traveled in the time it takes for the vehicle to stop. Solve for <em>x</em> :

<em>x</em> = (8.40 m/s)² / (2 (4.25 m/s²)) ≈ 8.30 m

So, the total distance traveled is approximately 29.4 m + 8.30 m ≈ 37.7 m.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

State two places where thermal conduction takes place.
Crank

Answer:

two places where thermal conduction takes place are gases and liquids, conduction is due to collisions of molecules during their random motion. Hence, the correct option is (C). Note: Though, the particle distances between gases are much more in comparison to solids and liquids, conduction slowly occurs in gases also

Suppose that a steel bridge, 1000 m long, were built without any expansion joints. Suppose that only one end of the bridge was h
Stels [109]

Answer:

The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1000 m

Winter temperature = 0°C

Summer temperature = 40°C

Coefficient of thermal expansion \alpha= 10.5\times10^{-6}\ K^{-1}

We need to calculate the difference in the length of the bridge

Using formula of the difference in the length

\Delta L=L\alpha\Delta T

Where, \Delta T= temperature difference

\alpha=Coefficient of thermal expansion

L= length

Put the value into the formula

\Delta L=1000\times10.5\times10^{-6}(40^{\circ}-0^{\circ})

\Delta L=0.42\ m

Hence, The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.
