a car traveling at 40m/s starts to decelerate steadily. it comes to a complete stop in 12 seconds. what is the acceleration?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Velocity - v =0 m/s,

initial velocity - v(0)= 40 m/s

a - acceleration,

time - t = 12 s.

v=v(0) - at

0 = 40m/s - a*12s

12a = 40

a = 3.3 m/s²

A 2.00 × 103 kg car rounds a circular turn of radius 20.0 m. If the road is flat and the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.70, how fast can the car go without skidding?

Answers

Answer:

11.7 m/s

Explanation:

In order for the car to remain in circular motion along the road and not to skid, the frictional force between the tires and the road must be equal to the centripetal force.

Therefore, we can write:

\mu mg = m(v^2)/(r)

where:

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu=0.70 is the coefficient of friction

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

v is the speed of the car

r = 20.0 m is the radius of the turn

Substituting and solving for v, we find the speed of the car:

v=√(\mu gr)=√((0.70)(9.8)(20.0))=11.7 m/s

YourAnswers:

A) Valency is the combining capacity of any element. Valence electrons refers to the electrons found in the outermost shell of the atom of the element.

B) Symbol and valency:

  1. Oxygen(O) = (At. no. 8) = -2(Valency)
  2. Potassium(K) = (At. no. = 19) = +1(Valency)

C) The reaction would be:

What is the kinetic energy of a 108 kg object that is moving with a speed of 11.1 m/s ?

Answers

Answer:

6,653.34 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula.

KE=(1)/(2) mv^2

where m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in m/s.

The object is 108 kilograms and is moving at a speed of 11.1 m/s. Therefore, the mass is 108 kg and the velocity is 11.1 m/s.

m=108 kg

v=11.1 m/s

Substitute these values into the formula.

KE=(1)/(2)*108*11.1^2

Evaluate the exponent first. 11.1^2 is the same as 11.1*1.11, which is equal to 123.21

KE=(1)/(2) *108*123.21

Multiply 108 and 123.21

KE=(1)/(2)*13306.68

Multiply 1/2 and 13306.68

KE=6653.34

The kinetic energy of the object is 6,653.34 Joules (kg m2/s^2)
