The distance required for a car to come to a stop will vary depending on how fast the car is moving. Suppose that a certain car

traveling down the road at a speed of 20 m / s 20 m/s can come to a complete stop within a distance of 80 m 80 m . Assuming the road conditions remain the same, what would be the stopping distance required for the same car if it were moving at speeds of 10 m / s 10 m/s , 40 m / s 40 m/s , or 5 m / s 5 m/s ?

Answer:

Explanation:

If F be the force acting on the car to stop it

work done by force = change in kinetic energy

F X 80 = 1/2 m x 20²

F = 2.5 m

If speed is 10m/s

for distance d , the equation is

F x d = 1/2 x m x 10²

2.5 m x d = 1/2 x m x 10²

d = 20 m

If velocity is 40 m /s

F x d = 1/2 x m x 40²

2.5m x d = 1/2 m x 1600

d = 320 m

For v = 5 m/s

F x d = 1/2 m x 5²

2.5 m x d = 1/2 m x 5²

d = 5 m .

I think the correct answer would be that there are a relatively small number of moles of HCl present. Dilute would mean that there are very few solute particles dissolved as compared to the solvent particles in the solution. Hope this helps.

I need help with question two
zaharov [31]
I can't see numbers here, so here are all the answers:
1) the frequency is c/λ = 3e8/556e-9 = 5.39e14Hz
2) light travels at <span>299,792,458 m/s.  So in nanoseconds it's 0.299792458m.  This is about 1/3 of a meter which is about one foot.
3) length is L = ct = (</span>299,792,458 m/s)(6e-15) = 1.799e-6m or 1.799μm

How do waves behave differently to Earth's interior as they encounter the boundaries of different mediums?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

When they encounter boundaries between different media, the waves react according to Snell’s law, and the angle of refraction across the boundary will depend on the velocity of the second media relative to the first
