You're driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 49 m in front of you. You reaction time

before stepping on the brakes is 0.50 s, and the maximum deceleration of your car is 10m/s2.
a. How much distance is between you and the deer when you come to a stop?
b. What is the maximum speed you could have and still not hit the deer?

Answer:

v = 26.7 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

speed of the car = 20 m/s

distance between the car and the deer = 49 m

time taken to press the brake = 0.50 s

maximum deceleration of the car = 10 m/s²

Now,

distance travel by the car in 0.5 s = u x t = 20 x 0.5 = 10 m

distance travel by the car after the break is pressed

Using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

0² = 20² - 2 x 10 x s

s = 20 m

Total distance travel by the car = 20 + 10 = 30 m

Distance between deer and car = 49-30 = 19 m.

b. Maximum speed a car could have

Distance travel by the car in reaction time = v' x 0.5

v' is the maximum speed of the car.

maximum distance car can cover = 49 - 0.5 v'

Now, Using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

0² =v'² - 2 x 10 x (49- 0.5 x v')

v'² +10 v' -980 = 0

By solving

v = 26.7 m/s

Hence, maximum speed of the car can be 26.7 m/s

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

(a) B = 5.6 micro Tesla

Explanation:

Current in the wire, i = 140 A

distance, r = 5 m

The formula for the magnetic field at a distance r due to the current carrying wire

B=\frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\times \frac{2i}{r}

B=10^{-7}\times \frac{2\times140}{5}

B = 5.6 x 10^-6 Tesla

B = 5.6 micro Tesla

(b) As the magnetic field of earth at this site is 20 micro tesla so the magnetic field due to current carrying wire interfere the magnetic compass.

How much power should a braked 1.5t car have to be braked to reduce its speed from 30m / s to 10m / s in 5s?​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-120000 W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / time

P = ΔE / t

P = (½ mv₂² − ½ mv₁²) / t

P = m (v₂² − v₁²) / (2t)

Given m = 1.5 t = 1500 kg, v₂ = 10 m/s, v₁ = 30 m/s, and t = 5 s:

P = (1500 kg) ((10 m/s)² − (30 m/s)²) / (2 × 5 s)

P = -120000 W

If an object has a mass of 38 kg, what is its approximate weight on earth?
klasskru [66]
38*10=380 N
To be more exact, 38 should be multiplied by 9.8 instead of 10.
