Answer:

μ = 0.408

Explanation:

given,

speed of the automobile (u)= 20 m/s

distance = 50 m

final velocity  (v) = 0 m/s

kinetic friction = ?

we know that,

v² = u² + 2 a s

0 = 20² + 2 × a × 50

a = \dfrac{400}{2\times 50}

a = 4 m/s²

We know

F = ma = μN

ma = μ mg

a = μ g

\mu = \dfrac{a}{g}

\mu = \dfrac{4}{9.81}

μ = 0.408

hence, Kinetic friction require to stop the automobile before it hit barrier is 0.408

oee [108]

Answer:

3.25 × 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the electrons start from rest, their final kinetic energy is equal to the electric potential energy lost while moving through the potential difference (ΔV)

Ek = 1/2 mv2 = qΔV .................. 1

Given that V is the electron speed in m/s

Charge of electron = 1.60217662 × 10-19 coulombs

Mass of electron = 9.109×10−31 kilograms

ΔV = 3.0kV = 3000V

Make V the subject of the formula in eqaution 1

V = sqr root 2qΔV/m

V = 2 × 1.60217662 × 10-19 × 3000 / 9.109×10−31

V = 3.25 × 10^7 m/s

Alex73 [517]

Answer: I = 3.6 m3

(C)

Explanation:

moment of inertia for spherically shaped object around it's center is given as

I = (2/5) mr²

substituting the r = 3m²

I = (2/5)*(9) m3

I = 3.6 m3
