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 .

Visible light passes through a diffraction grating that has 900 slits per centimeter, and the interference pattern is observed o
love history [14]

Answer:

13.51 nm

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we are going to use angle approximation that sin θ ≈ tan θ ≈ θ where our θ is in radians

y/L=tan θ ≈ θ

and ∆θ ≈∆y/L

Where ∆y= wavelength distance= 2.92 mm =0.00292m

L=screen distance= 2.40 m

=0.00292m/2.40m

=0.001217 rad

The grating spacing is d = (90000 lines/m)^−1

=1.11 × 10−5 m.

the small-angle

approx. Using difraction formula with m = 1 gives:

mλ = d sin θ ≈ dθ →

∆λ ≈ d∆θ = =1.11 × 10^-5 m×0.001217 rad

=0.000000001351m

= 13.51 nm

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can
lord [1]

Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
sergejj [24]

Here mass of the iron pan is given as 1 kg

now let say its specific heat capacity is given as "s"

also its temperature rise is given from 20 degree C to 250 degree C

so heat required to change its temperature will be given as

Q = ms \Delta T

Q = 1*s*(250 - 20)

Q = 1*s*230

now if we give same amount of heat to another pan of greater specific heat

so let say the specific heat of another pan is s'

now the increase in temperature of another pan will be given as

Q = ms'\Delta T

1*s*230 = 1* s' * \Delta T

now we have

\Delta T = (\frac{s}{s'})*230

now as we know that s' is more than s so the ratio of s and s' will be less than 1

And hence here we can say that change in temperature of second pan will be less than 230 degree C which shows that final temperature of second pan will reach to lower temperature

So correct answer is

<u>A) The second pan would reach a lower temperature.</u>
