Answer:

The brakes don't grip the tires as securely as the water prevents a stable grip. The car will skid straight along the road as the tires don't have traction along a wet surface

Verdich [7]

Answer:

a)54L/min

b)0.845

Explanation:

a) A x V=A_1V_1+ A_2V_2+A_3V_3

where suffix 1,2,3 refers to the three pipes.

            =27L/min+16L/min+11 L/min

            =54L/min

b) A x V=54L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v

   d= 2 cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v = 54

v= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2}

-> A_1 x V_1=27L/min => \frac{\pi }{4} d_1^2 x v_1

d_1= 1.3cm

\frac{\pi }{4} d^2 x v_1 = 27

v_1= \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2}

Next is to find the ratio of speed i.e \frac{v}{v_1}

\frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{54}{2^2} / \frac{4}{\pi } x \frac{27}{1.3^2} => \frac{54}{27} \frac{1.3^2}{2^2}

\frac{v}{v_1}= 0.845

A car slows from 27 m/s to 5 m/s with a constant acceleration for 6.87 s. What is the car’s acceleration?
Kobotan [32]

In this case, the movement is uniformly delayed (the final rapidity is less than the initial rapidity), therefore, the value of the acceleration will be negative.

1. The following equation is used:

a = (Vf-Vo)/ t

a: acceleration (m/s2)

Vf: final rapidity (m/s)

Vo: initial rapidity (m/s)

t: time (s)

2. Substituting the values in the equation:

a = (5 m/s- 27 m/s)/6.87 s

3. The car's acceleration is:

a= -3.20 m/ s<span>^2</span>

A 35 kg child goes down a playground that is inclined at an angle of 27.5 degrees above the horizontal. Find the acceleration if
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

4.16m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newtons second law;

\sum Fx = ma_x\\Fm - Ff = ma_x\\W sin\theta - \mu R cos \theta = ma_x\\mg sin\theta - \mu mg cos\theta = ma_x\\

Fm is the moving force

\mu is  the coefficient of kinetic friction between the child and the slide

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

a is the acceleration of the child

Substitute the given values and get the acceleration as shown;

35(9.8)sin27.5 - 0.415(35)(cos27.5) = 35a

158.38-12.88 = 35a

145.49 = 35a

a = 145.49/35

a = 4.16m/s²

Hence the acceleration of the body is  4.16m/s²
