You are driving along the New York State Thruway in a line of cars all travelling at a constant speed of 108.5 km/hr. The car in front of you applies its brakes for maximum acceleration. You then apply your brakes to achieve the same maximum acceleration after only a 1 s delay due to reaction time. What distance behind the car in front of you must you be to avoid a collision?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Car first should be 30.13 m behind the second car.

Explanation:

Given that,

Constant speed = 108.5 Km/hr

Time = 1 sec

Let the distance covered by second car S and by first car S'

We need to calculate the distance covered by second car

Using equation of motion

[tex]S=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex].....(I)

The distance covered by first car to avoid collision

[tex]S''=S'+S[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]S'+S=ut+ut-\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]...(II)

We need to calculate the distance covered by first car

Using equation (I) and (II)

[tex]S'=ut[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]S'=108.5\times\dfrac{5}{18}\times1[/tex]

[tex]S'=30.13\ m[/tex]

Hence, Car first should be 30.13 m behind the second car.

If three resistors 2ohm, 3ohm and 4ohm are connected in a circuit. Calculate the equivalent resistance of the combination

Answers

You haven't described whether they're connected in series or in parallel.  Actually, there are eight (8) different ways they can be arranged, and each way has a different equivalent resistance.

==> All 3 resistors in series.  Equivalent resistance = (2+3+4) = 9.000 ohms

==> All 3 resistors in parallel.

Equivalent resistance = 1 / (1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4) = (12/13) ohm or 0.923 ohm

==> The 2 ohm resistor in series with (the 3 and the 4 in parallel)

Equivalent resistance = 2 + 1/(1/3 + 1/4) =  3.714 ohms

==> The 3 ohm resistor in series with (the 2 and the 4 in parallel)

Equivalent resistance = 3 + 1/(1/2 + 1/4) =  4.333 ohms  

==> The 4 ohm resistor in series with (the 2 and the 3 in parallel)

Equivalent resistance = 4 + 1/(1/2 + 1/3) =  5.200 ohms

==> The 2 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 3 and the 4 in series)

Equivalent resistance = 1.556 ohms

==> The 3 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 2 and the 4 in series)

Equivalent resistance = 2.000 ohms

==> The 4 ohm resistor in parallel with (the 2 and the 3 in series)

Equivalent resistance = 2.222 ohms

c. it is theoretically impossible to convert work into heat with 100% efficiency
d. the total energy in the universe is increasing with time
e. the total energy in the universe is decreasing with time

Answers

Answer:

b. disorder in the universe is increasing with the passage of time

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy of an isolated system  increases over time . The entropy of a system measures the randomness or disorder  in the system . So the we can state,  in terms of disorder , the second  law of thermodynamics as follows .

The disorder in the universe is increasing with the passage of time .

The second law of thermodynamics leads us to conclude that disorder in the universe is increasing with the passage of time. So, here, option b is the correct option.

Entropy is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system. The second law of thermodynamics states that in any spontaneous process, the total entropy of an isolated system (including both the system and its surroundings) tends to increase or, at best, remain constant. This means that over time, natural processes tend to lead to an increase in the overall disorder or randomness of the system. It's important to note that while the increase in entropy is a statistical tendency on a macroscopic scale, there can still be localized decreases in entropy within a system.

The police car accelerates with constant acceleration of 2m/s^2.Required:a. How long does it take for the police to catch the speeding car? b. How far did the police car travel before police caught up with the speeder? c. What is the speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder?

Answers

Answer:

a) The police will take 18.056 seconds to catch the speedy car, b) The police will travel 326.019 meters before catching the speedy car, c) The speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is 36.112 meters per second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that speeder moves in a uniform motion, whereas police car has an uniformly accelerated motion.

a) How long does it take for the police to catch the speeding car:

Kinematic equation of each vehicle's position are described:

Speeder

[tex]s_{A} = s_{A,o}+v_{A}\cdot t[/tex]

Police Car

[tex]s_{B} = s_{B,o}+v_{B,o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}[/tex]

If [tex]s_{A} = s_{B}[/tex], [tex]s_{A,o} = s_{B,o}[/tex], [tex]v_{A} = 18.056\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the resulting expression is done:

[tex]v_{A} \cdot t = v_{B,o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t^{2}+(v_{B,o}-v_{A})\cdot t = 0[/tex]

[tex]t \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\cdot a_{B}\cdot t +v_{B,o}-v_{A} \right)= 0[/tex]

[tex]t = 0\,s\,\wedge\, t = \frac{2\cdot (v_{A}-v_{B,o})}{a_{B}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{2\cdot \left(18.056\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex]

The police will take 18.056 seconds to catch the speedy car.

b) How far did the police car travel before police caught up with the speeder?

The distance travelled by the police is: ([tex]s_{B,o} = 0\,m[/tex],  [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and  [tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex])

[tex]s_{B} = 0\,m + \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (18.056\,s)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (18.056\,s)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]s_{B} = 326.019\,m[/tex]

The police will travel 326.019 meters before catching the speedy car.

c) What is the speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder?

The speed of the police car is represented by the following formula:

[tex]v_{B} = v_{B,o} + a_{B}\cdot t[/tex]

Where [tex]v_{B}[/tex] is the speed of the police car, measured in meters per second.

Given that [tex]v_{B,o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]t = 18.056\,s[/tex] and [tex]a_{B} = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], the final speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is:

[tex]v_{B} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (18.056\,s)[/tex]

[tex]v_{B} = 36.112\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

The speed of the police car when catches up with the speeder is 36.112 meters per second.

A man is standing on the top of a hill and sees a flagpole he knows is 45 feet high. The angle of
depression to the bottom of the pole is 12 degrees, and the angle of elevation to the top of the
pole is 16 degrees. Find his distance from the pole.

Answers

Answer: his distance from the pole is 90.16 ft

Explanation:

based on the diagram of the question i will upload along this answer;

45 - d is equal to part of the pole below the horizontal line

d/x = tan(16) ; x = d/tan(16)............equ1

(45-d) / x = tan(12); x = (45-d) / tan(12)-----------equ2

∴ d/tan(16) = (45-d) / tan(12)

d.tan(12) = (45-d).tan(16)  

d.tan12 = (45×tan16) - d.tan16

0.2125d = 12.9034 - 0.2867d

0.2125d + 0.2867d = 12.9034

0.4992d = 12.9034

d = 12.9034/0.4992

d = 25.85 ft

now substitute value of d into any of our previous equation, lets take equation 1

x = 25.85 / tan(16)

x = 25.85 / 0.2867

x = 90.16 ft

Therefore his distance from the pole is 90.16 ft

b

[tex]a_{max} =  3.2 \ m/s^2[/tex]

c

[tex]v_{max} =  0.25 \  m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The period is  [tex]T  =  0.5 \ sec[/tex]

    The  amplitude is  [tex]A =  2 \ cm  =  0.02 \ m[/tex]

    The  vibration of the scale is  [tex]Acos(wt +  \phi )[/tex]

Generally the frequency is mathematically represented as

   [tex]f =  \frac{1}{T}[/tex]

=>   [tex]f =  \frac{1}{0.5}[/tex]

=>    [tex]f =  2  \ Hz[/tex]

The  maximum acceleration is mathematically represented as

    [tex]a_{max} =  A *(2 \pi f)^2[/tex]

=>    [tex]0.02 *  (2 * 3.142  *  2)^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]a_{max} =  3.2 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The  maximum velocity is mathematically represented as  

     [tex]v_{max} =  A *  (2 \pi f)[/tex]

A projectile is launched at some angle to the horizontal with some initial speed vi, and air resistance is negligible.(a) Is the projectile a freely falling body? (b) What is its acceleration in the vertical direction? (c) What is its acceleration in the horizontal direction?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at some angle to the horizontal with some speed vi , and air resistance is negligible , it is definitely a freely falling body .

It is so because it is free to accelerate towards the earth with acceleration of g . Air has no resistance , hence no force is acting on it except the gravitational force . Hence it is a freely falling body .

b )

The acceleration in the vertical direction is due to force exerted by the earth that is gravitational force on it  . Hence its  acceleration is equal to g in vertically downward direction .

c )

It has zero acceleration in horizontal direction . It is so because no force is acting on it in horizontal direction . So no acceleration will be present in horizontal direction . It will move in horizontal direction with constant speed of vi cos θ where θ is the angle vi make with the horizontal .

Calculate the change in momentum of a 0.5kg ball that strikes the floor at 15 m/s and bounces back up at 12 m/s

Answers

Answer:

The change in momentum is:  [tex]13.5\,\frac{kg\,m}{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let's define that vectors pointing up are positive, and vectors pointing down negative.

Then we express the initial momentum of the ball as the product of its mass times the velocity, and include the negative sign since this momentum is pointing down (velocity vector is pointing down):

[tex]P_i=-0.5\,(15) \frac{kg\,m}{s} =-7.5\, \frac{kg\,m}{s}[/tex]

the final momentum is positive (pointing up) and given by the product:

[tex]P_f=0.5\,(12) \frac{kg\,m}{s} =6\, \frac{kg\,m}{s}[/tex]

Therefore, since the change in momentum is defined as the difference between the final momentum minus the initial one, we get:

[tex]P_f-P_i=6-(-7.5)\,\frac{kg\,m}{s} =13.5\,\frac{kg\,m}{s}[/tex]

Caroline, a piano tuner, suspects that a piano's B4 key is out of tune. Normally, she would play the key along with her B4 tuning fork and tune the piano to match, but her B4 tuning fork is missing! Instead, she plays the errant key along with her A4 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 440.0 Hz), displays the resulting waveform on a handheld oscilloscope, and measures a beat frequency of 15.9 Hz. Then, she plays the errant key along with her C5 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 523.3 Hz) and measures a beat frequency of 67.4 Hz. What frequency is being played by the out-of-tune key? If the B4 key is supposed to produce a frequency of 493.9, is the frequency of the key lower than it should be ("flat") or higher than it should be ("sharp")?

Answers

Answer:

455.9 Hz, Flat

Explanation:

The beat frequency is basically the difference between the frequency of the B4 note and the frequency of the A4 tuning fork. This means the B4 note is 15.9 Hz off of 440Hz, and 67.4 Hz off of 525.3 Hz. As B4 is between the two notes, it would make sense to find its frequency by adding 15.9 to 440 and subtracting 67.4 from 523.3, both if which give us a frequency 455.9 Hz for the B4 key. This is because the note doesn't change for the different turning forks so both differences should result in the same frequency. Because the note should be 493.9 frequency but instead has a frequency of 455.9 Hz, it is flat because the frequency is lower than it is supposed to be.

Hope this helped!

This question deals with the phenomenon of "Beat Frequency".

The frequency being played by the B4 key is "455.9 Hz", which is "lower (flat) than it should be".

When two waves with a slightly different frequency interfere with each other, they produce a pattern known as beat frequency. The beat frequency is the difference between the frequencies of the interfering wave. Since the frequency of B4 key produces beat frequency with both the C5 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 523.3 Hz) and the A4 (which has a frequency of 440 Hz). Hence, the frequency of the B4 key must be between the range of these frequencies, that is, 440 Hz to 523.3 Hz.

ANALYZING THE BEAT FREQUENCY WITH A4 TUNING FORK:

Beat Frequency with A4 tuning fork = Frequency of B4 - Frequency of A4

Frequency of B4 = Frequency of A4 + Beat Frequency with A4 tuning fork

Frequency of B4 = 440 Hz + 15.9 Hz

Frequency of B4 = 455.9 Hz

ANALYZING THE BEAT FREQUENCY WITH C5 TUNING FORK:

Beat Frequency with C5 tuning fork = Frequency of C5 - Frequency of C5

Frequency of B4 = Frequency of C5 - Beat Frequency with C5 tuning fork

Frequency of B4 = 440 Hz - 67.4 Hz

Frequency of B4 = 455.9 Hz

Both the answers validate each other.

Since the expected frequency of the B4 key is 493.9 Hz, which is greater than the actual frequency produced by the B4 key. Hence, we can say that "the frequency of the key lower than it should be ("flat")"

The attached picture shows the general formula of the beat frequency.
