an object of mass 6000 kg rests on the flatbed of a truck. it is held in place by metal brackets that can exert a maximum horizo

ntal force of 9000 N. when the truck is traveling 15 m/s, what is the minimum stopping distance if the load is not to slide forward into the cab?

Answer:

minimum stopping distance will be d = 75 m

Explanation:

Maximum force exerted by the bracket is given as

F = 9000 N

now we know that mass of the object is

m = 6000 kg

so the maximum acceleration that truck can have is given as

F = ma

9000 = 6000 a

a = 1.5 m/s^2

now for finding minimum stopping distance of the truck

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2a d

0^2 - 15^2 = 2(-1.5) d

d = 75 m

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.

You connect a voltmeter to an unknown resistor in a circuit in order to measure the potential difference across that resistor. H
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

option (a)

Explanation:

To make a galvanometer into voltmeter, we have to connect a high resistance in series combination.

The voltmeter is connected in parallel combination with teh resistor to find the voltage drop across it.

An ideal voltmeter has very high resistance that means it has a resistance as infinity.

According to the equation for the Balmer line spectrum of hydrogen, a value of n = 3 gives a red spectral line at 656.3 nm, a va
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁶ kJ,  E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁶ kJ and  E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

Explanation:

They give us some spectral lines of the Balmer series, let's take the opportunity to place the values in SI units

     n = 3        λ = 656.3 nm = 656.3 10⁻⁹ m

     n = 4        λ = 486.1 nm = 486.1 10⁻⁹ m

     n = 5        λ=434.0 nm = 434.0 10⁻⁹ m

Let's use the Planck equation

     E = h f

The speed of light equation

   c = λ f

replace

    E = h c /λ

Where h is the Planck constant that is worth 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s and c is the speed of light that is worth 3 10⁸ m / s

Let's calculate the energies

     E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / λ

     E = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /λ

n = 3

    E3 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ / 656.3 10⁻⁹

    E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁹ J

    1 kJ = 10³ J

    E3 = 3.03 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

n = 4

    E4 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /486.1 10⁻⁹

    E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E4 = 4.09 10⁻¹⁶ kJ

n = 5

    E5 = 19.89 10⁻²⁶ /434.0 10⁻⁹

    E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E5 = 4.58 10⁻¹⁶ kJ
