A car is being driven along a road at 25m/s when the driver suddenly notices that there is a fallen tree blocking the road 65m a

head. The driver immediately applies the brakes giving the car a constant velocity of 5m/s2. How far in front of the tree does the car come to rest?

Hi there!

We can use the following equation to solve for displacement:

vf² = vi² + 2ad, where:

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

a = acceleration

d = displacement

Since the car will come to rest, vf = 0, so:

0 = vi² + 2ad

Plug in the given values:

0 = 25² + 2(-5)d (Breaking is a negative acceleration in this instance)

Solve:

0 = 25² - 10d

10d = 625

d = 62.5m

Subtract from the total distance from the car to the tree:

65 - 62.5 = 2.5m

A 438kg car is accelerating east at 2.55m/s^2. What is the total force acting east on the car
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<h2>1116.9 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 438 × 2.55

We have the final answer as

<h3>1116.9 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

How fast (in rpm) must a centrifuge rotate if a particle 7.3 cm from the axis of rotation is to experience an acceleration of 1.
guajiro [1.7K]

The formula we use here is:

radial acceleration = ω^2 * R <span>

110,000 * 9.81 m/s^2 = ω^2 * 0.073 m 
<span>ω^2 = 110,000 * 9.81 / 0.073
ω = 3844.76 rad/s </span></span>

<span>and since: ω = 2pi*f  --> f = ω/(2pi)</span><span>
f = 3844.76 / (2pi) = 611.91 rps = 611.91 * 60 rpm 
<span>= 36,714.77 rpm </span></span>
