How do I measure the drag of a paper airplane?

A test of the prototype of a new automobile shows that the minimum distance for a controlled stop from 95 km/h to zero is 55 m.

Answer:

-0.64525g

Explanation:

t = Time taken for the car to stop

u = Initial velocity = 95 km/h

v = Final velocity = 0 km/h

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-95^2}{2\times 0.055}\\\Rightarrow a=-82045.45\ km/h^2$

Converting to m/s²

$a=82045.45=\frac{82045.45\times 1000}{3600\times 3600}=-6.33\ m/s^2$

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Dividing both the accelerations, we get

$\frac{a}{g}=\frac{-6.33}{9.81}=-0.64525\\\Rightarrow a=-0.64525g$

Hence, acceleration of the car is -0.64525g

The multiple reflection of a single sound wave is a/an

ANTONII [103]

A single reflection, like shouting at the side of a mountain and hearing
your voice come back to you, is an 'echo'.

Multiple reflection, like clapping your hands once inside a large room,
is 'reverberation'.

Plz answer this! I am stumped

Gwar [14]

MgCl2
Mg = magnesium
Cl = chlorine

Magnesium + chlorine = magnesium chloride.

This is because compounds are always written with the METAL FIRST and the NON METAL SECOND. the non metal ends in - ide when it reacts with a metal.

So ur answer would be magnesium chloride. :)

Suppose a car manufacturer tested its cars for front-en4 collisions by hauling them up on a crane and dropping then; from a cert

Answer:

a

Generally from third equation of motion we have that

$v^2 = u^2 + 2a[s_i - s_f]$
