An alert driver can apply the brakes fully in about 0.5 seconds. How far would the car travel if it

The distance a car travels after the brakes are applied is calculated to be d = 14.53 m. Given the time to fully apply the brakes is t = 0.5 s and the car's speed is v = 29.06 m/s, the distance can be determined using the formula d = v x t. Substituting gives d = 29.06 m/s * 0.5 s = 14.53 m.

A rope connects boat A to boat B. Boat A starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 9.5 m/s in a time t = 47 s. The mass of
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer: 339.148N

Explanation:

Given data:

Time (t) = 47s

Initial speed (U) = 0m/s

Final speed (V) = 9.5m/s

Mass of B = 540kg

Frictional force on B = 230N

Since both boats are linked, movement of A causes B to move as well.

What is the acceleration of boat A?

Applying the motion formula:

V = u + at

9.5 = 0 + a * 47

a = 9.5 / 47

a = 0.2021 m/s²

To determine the force necessary to accelerate boat B, as both boats experience the same force:

F = Mass * acceleration

F = 540 * 0.2021 = 109.14N

Given that there is a frictional force of 230N acting on boat B, the overall force (Tension) becomes:

Tension = frictional force + applied force = (109.14 + 230)N = 339.148N

A shuttle on Earth has a mass of 4.5 E 5 kg. Compare its weight on Earth to its weight while in orbit at a height of 6.3 E 5 met
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Response:

83%

Clarification:

At the surface, the weight can be expressed as:

W = GMm / R²

where G denotes the gravitational constant, M represents the Earth's mass, m signifies the shuttle's mass, and R is the Earth's radius.

When in orbit, the weight is given by:

w = GMm / (R+h)²

where h indicates the shuttle's altitude above Earth's surface.

The weight ratio is as follows:

w/W = R² / (R+h)²

w/W = (R / (R+h))²

For R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:

w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²

w/W = 0.83

Thus, the shuttle maintains 83% of its weight as it orbits.

What is the freezing point of radiator fluid that is 50% antifreeze by mass? k f for water is 1.86 ∘ c/m?
Maru [3345]
Ethylene glycol is known as the main component found in antifreeze.
The molecular formula for ethylene glycol is C₂H₆O₂.
Its molar mass is calculated as C₂H₆O₂ = (2×12) +(6×1) + (216) = 62g/mol
Given that antifreeze comprises 50% by weight, there exists 1 kg of ethylene glycol mixed with 1 kg of water.
ΔTf = Kf×m
ΔTf refers to the change in the freezing point.
= starting temperature of water - freezing temperature of the solution
= 0°C - Tf
= -Tf
Kf stands for the freezing point depression constant of water, which is 1.86°C/m
m is the molarity of the solution.
=(mass/molar mass) where mass of solvent is in kg
=1000g/62 (g/mol) /1kg
=16.13m
Substituting the value into the equation gives us
-Tf = 1.86 × 16.13 = 30
thus Tf = -30°C

Sav [3153]
The total duration from the stone's drop to the echo being heard is 8.9 seconds. The sound takes 0.9 seconds to reach the listener, meaning it takes the stone 8 seconds to descend to the well's bottom. Using gravitational acceleration, the well's depth calculates to be approximately 313.6 meters.

a force of 6lbs acts on an object with a weight of 35 lbs on earth. determine the objects acceleration. final answer must be 5.5
kicyunya [3294]
Weight of the object = 35 lbs
F = ma
m = F/a = 35/32 (with acceleration of 32 ft/s²)
m= 1.09

Again applying the same formula,
a = F/m
a= 6/1.09
a= 5.489

Thus, the acceleration is approximately 5.5 ft/s²!!
