A police car is asked to overtake a red sedan that is 16 km ahead of it on the freeway. The red sedan is traveling at 80 km/hr and the police car travels at 100 km/hr. When will the police car overtake the sedan?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

S = v0 t + 1/2 a t^2       a = 0 seems given in the problem

Vp  t = Vr t + 16

both travel for time t but the police car is going faster and travels 16 km farther

t (Vp - Vr) = 16

t = 16 km / (100 - 80) km/hr

t = 16 / 20 hr = 4/5 hr = 48 min

Applying definitions Samantha ran 90 meters in 35 seconds to catch up with her dog. When she got to him, she played with him for 70 seconds before they walked back in 75 seconds. Did Saman tha travel at constant speed? What was Samantha's average speed?

Answers

No, Saman didn't travel at constant speed

v₁ = 90/35 = 2.57 m/s

v₂ = 0

v₃ = 90/75 = 1.2 m/s

Average speed = total distance/time

Average speed = (90+90)/(35+70+75) = 1 m/s

You catch a 219 g ball moving at 6.1 m/s. If you catch the ball in a time period of
0.138 s what is the magnitude of the average force you must supply to the ball to
stop the ball?
Answer in units of Newtons (N)

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force to supply to the ball in order to stop the ball is 9.68 N.

Explanation:

Let's think Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma.

We are given the mass of the ball: 219 g ⇒ .219 kg.

We are given the initial velocity, time, and final velocity of the ball ∴ we can solve for acceleration.

We are trying to find the force needed to stop the ball.

Let's find the acceleration of the ball first.

We have the initial velocity of the ball, 6.1 m/s.We have the time it would hypothetically take the ball to stop, .138 s.We have the final velocity of the ball, 0 m/s (since we are trying to stop the ball).

Now, we can plug these known values into this kinematic equation and solve for acceleration, a.

v = v₀ + at 0 = 6.1 + a(.138) -6.1 = .138a a = 44.2029 m/s²

Substitute acceleration and mass into F = ma and solve for the force.

F = (.219)(44.2029) F = 9.68 N

The magnitude of the average force to supply to the ball in order to stop the ball is 9.68 N.

A particle moves in the xy plane in a circle centered on the origin. at a certain instant the velocity and acceleration of the particle are 6. 0 m/s and (3. 0 + 4. 0) m/s2. what are the x and y coordinates of the particle at this moment?

Answers

The x and y coordinates of the particle at this moment is (6x + 4.5y) m.

Position of the particle

The position of the particle at any instant is determined from the velocity and acceleration of the particle as shown below.

v² = u² + 2as

where;

v is the final velocity of the particleu is the initial velocitya is the acceleration of the particles is the position of the particle

v² = 0 + 2as

v² = 2as

s = v²/2a

X and y - coordinates of the particle

[tex]s_x = \frac{v^2}{2a_x} = \frac{6^2}{2(3)} = 6\ m\\\\s_y = \frac{v^2}{2a_y} = \frac{6^2}{2(4)} = 4.5 \ m\\\\s = (6 x \ + 4.5y)m[/tex]

What will an atom do if it has 1 to 3 valence electrons?

move electrons to a lower shell

move electrons to a higher shell

accepts (gains) electrons

donates (loses) electrons

Answers

Answer:

donates (loses) electrons

Explanation:

Atoms are most stable when they have zero valence electrons (full octets) and have the same electron configuration as the Noble Gases.

Atoms that have 1-3 valence electrons are most likely to donate them to reach this stable configuration.

An example is Sodium (Na) has 1 valence electron, as it is group one of the periodic table, and it often forms as a positive cation (Na+1) by donating its valence electron.

If our planet was twice as far away how would the Earth’s orbit change?

Answers

Answer:

One of the indirect proofs that orbits change is actually in the growth of our own teeth when we were children. our teeth are some of the most basic, and primitive

parts of our bodies. They grow on a 9 day cycle, which was an ancient full moon to full moon cycle when the Earth and the Moon were a lot smaller, and closer together, and the co-orbital period was only 9 days, not the 29.5 days that it is currently.

So Given any two " Planets " that co-orbit a common gravitational center, the larger planet will grow larger far faster than the smaller planet, and the larger planet will accelerate the smaller planet to a higher orbit with a longer period, and decelerate itself to a lower orbit with a longer period, and the absolute value of the center to center distance will increase, and the orbital period will increase. The two orbs and their common gravitational center will remain co-linear through out the gradual growing and changing process.

This is an important process for the enlargement of the solar system as time passes, and an important process for larger galaxies as they attract and merge with smaller galaxies.

All of the planets grow larger at an accelerating rate, and thus systems spiral outward concentrating mass into larger and fewer galaxies, solar systems, and planet - moon systems.

A golf club exerts an average force of 500N on a 0.1kg golf ball and the contact time is 0.01s.

What is the change in velocity of the golf ball?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]50\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}[/tex], assuming that the force on the golf ball was constant.

Explanation:

Assume that the force the golf club exerted on the golf ball a constant force of magnitude [tex]F[/tex]. Let [tex]\Delta t[/tex] denote the duration the club was in contact with the golf ball. The impulse of this force would be:

[tex]J = F\, \Delta t[/tex].

Let [tex]\Delta p[/tex] denote the change in the momentum of this golf ball. By the impulse-momentum theorem, this [tex]\Delta p\![/tex] would be equal to the impulse on the golf ball.

[tex]\Delta p = J = F\, \Delta t[/tex].

The momentum [tex]p[/tex] of this golf ball is the scalar product between the mass [tex]m[/tex] of this golf ball and the velocity [tex]v[/tex] of this golf ball. The mass of this golf ball stays the same. Thus, when the momentum of this golf ball changes by [tex]\Delta p[/tex], the velocity of this golf ball would change by [tex](\Delta p) / (m)[/tex].

The change in the velocity of this golf ball would thus be:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\Delta v &= \frac{\Delta p}{m} & \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{(\text{change in momentum})}{}\\ &= \frac{J}{m} & \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{(\text{impulse on the golf ball})}{}\\ &= \frac{F\, \Delta t}{m} \\ &= \frac{500\; {\rm N} \times 0.01\; {\rm s}}{0.1\; {\rm kg}} \\ &\approx 50\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}[/tex].

(Note that [tex]1\; {\rm N} = 1\; {\rm kg \cdot m^{2}\cdot s^{-2}}[/tex].)

Answers

Answer:

2.47 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum = Mass X Velocity

If they were locked together, it means its a perfectly inelastic collision. Therefore,

Total momentum before = Total momentum after

Total momentum before = (20 X 20) - (18 X 17)

= 94

Total momentum after = 94

Y = Object speed after collision

94 = (20+18)Y

Y = 2.47368421 m/s

What is the volume of one rubber ball? round to the nearest hundredth of a centimeter. cm3 if the price of the rubber needed to produce a ball is $0.0045/cm3, what is the cost of producing one ball? round to the nearest cent. $ if the company sells a ball for $0.50, how much profit will it make on each ball? $

Answers

The volume of one rubber ball and the cost of producing one ball and the profit will it make on each ball will be 20.58 cm³, $0.09261, and $0.40739 respectively.

What exactly is geometry?

It is concerned with the geometry, region, and density of various 2D and 3D shapes.

The given data in the problem is;

r is the Rubber balls = 1.7 cm

V is the volume

C is the cost of production

P is the profit

The volume of the rubber ball is  found as;

[tex]\rm v= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \\\\ \rm v= \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 (4.913)^3 \\\\ \rm v= 20.58 cm^3[/tex]

If the price of the rubber required to make a ball is $0.0045/cm3, the ball's production cost will be $0.0045/cm3.

The cost of a ball is the multiplication of the cost of one ball and the selling price of the ball;

C = 0.0045 x 20.58

C = $0.09261

P is the profit gained and profit is the subtraction of the selling price and cost price.

P = S.P.-C.P.

P=0.5 - 0.09261

P = $0.40739

Hence the volume of one rubber ball and the cost of producing one ball and the profit will it make on each ball will be 20.58 cm³, $0.09261, and $0.40739 respectively.

Since the rod is held perpendicular to the direction of motion of the spaceship, the rod is 1.00 m long to an Earth observer.

To answer the question, we use the principle of length contraction in relativity.

What is Length contraction?

The principle of length contraction states that the length of an object would only contraction when it is in the direction of motion.

So, since the 1.00 m long rod is in the spaceship is held perpendicular to the direction of motion of the spaceship, there is no length contraction and thus, an observer on the Earth measures the same length of 1.00 m.
