A driver in a car moving with the velocity 72km/hr sees a cow on a road 20m ahead. He applies the brake and the car stops in 4 second . Does an accident occur ? After what distance does the car come to rest?​

Answers

72km/hr = 72000m/3600seconds(we convert km/hr to m/s
= 20m/s
Velocity= 20m/s
In 4seconds,distance covered=20x4= 80m
Therefore,an accident occurs because in 4seconds, the car would have moved past 20m

How did Einstein’s and Newton’s theories differ in terms of explaining the cause of gravity?


Answers

Newton”s theory says this can occur because of gravity, a force attracting those objects to one another or to a single, third object. Einstein also says this occurs due to gravity- but in his theory, gravity is not a force. It is a curve in space-time.

Newton's law of universal gravitation doesn't say anything about the cause of gravity.

Einstein's theory of relativity does.

A force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right . The size and direction of resultant force is
1)4N
2)28N to the right
3) 4 N to the right

Answers

Answer:

4 N to the right

Explanation:

The force acting to the right of the body is acting in the positive x direction while the force acting to the left of the body is acting in the negative x direction.

If a force of 12N acts to the left on a body and a force of 16 N acts to the right, force acting to the left will be -12N while that acting to the right will be +16N.

The resultant force acting on the bod will be the sum of the two forces.

Resultant = -12N+16N

Resultant = 4N

The direction of the resultant force will be towards the right since the resultant is a positive value.

Concrete and steel expand to almost the same amount when they are heated. Explain why you think this is lucky?

Answers

Answer:

While making a bridge or a building, the first thing that comes to our mind is that these are always made by the combination of concrete and steel. Concrete is cheap, but it has the property of breaking when it is twisted or under tension. Steel is expensive, If we made the whole thing with it, it will cost a lot. To provide strength under a reasonable cost, we use the combination of concrete and steel. Another postive point which they have together is that they both expand equally under heat, because they have the same coefficient of thermal expansion. It proves really useful, because if they had different coefficients of thermal expansions, one would expand more than the other, which will create tensions in the mixture and would break it easily. In the case, many cracks would start to appear in the bridge or buildings, which will eventually break them.

Where a is acceleration

K is constant of proportionality of tension on a spring

e is the extension substended by a string.

From the formula of acceleration we can see that as mass decreases acceleration increases so we can see that m = 1

Explanation:

Accra is the Capital of Ghana

Accra was founded in the 17th century by the Ga people. It became the capital of the British Gold Coast in 1877 and the capital of Ghana on the formation of the country as an independent state in 1957
Accra Is the Second Most Expensive City in Africa

Accra is known for its colorful textile and used or second-hand clothing markets. Located inside the Makola Market, Kantamanto is the largest trading point in all of Accra.


The capital of Togo is Lomé

Lomé, city, capital of Togo. Lomé lies on the Gulf of Guinea (Atlantic coast) in the extreme southwestern corner of the country. Selected as the colonial capital of German Togoland in 1897, it became important as an administrative, commercial, and transport centre.

It is also the country's chief port, from where it exports coffee, cocoa, copra, and oil palm kernels- Lome


Lomé was founded by the Ewe, an indigenous ethnic group, in 1880. Located on the southwestern Atlantic coast of Togo, Lomé has a long history of trade. In 2000, an estimated 900,000 people resided in Lomé. Europe's “Scramble for Africa” began in 1880.

If a transformer doubles its input voltage, what is the current in the secondary coil if the primary coil is 10 A.

Answers

Answer:

20Amp

Explanation:

Using the transformer formula

Vs/Vp = Ns/Np = Ip/Is

Vs/Vp = Ip/Is

Vp is the primary voltage = input voltage

Vs is the secondary voltage = output voltage

Ip is the current in the primary coil

Is is the amount of current in the secondary coil.

If the transformer doubles its input voltage Vp, its output voltage Vs will be

decreased by 2 but the output current will be doubled

Given the input current Ip = 10A, the current in the secondary coil (output current) will be doubled i.e Is = 2(10) = 20A

The current in the secondary coil be "50 A". To understand the calculation, check below.

Current and Voltage

According to the question,

Current in primary coil, [tex]I_{in}[/tex] = 10 A

We know the relation,

Power = [tex]V_{in} I_{in}[/tex] = [tex]V_{out} I_{out}[/tex]

then,

→ [tex]V_{in} I_{in}[/tex] = [tex]V_{out} I_{out}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

   [tex]V_{in}[/tex] × 10 = 2 [tex]V_{in} I_{out}[/tex]

By applying cross-multiplication,

           10 = 2 [tex]I_{out}[/tex]

         [tex]I_{out}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{2}[/tex]

                = 5 A

A wave is sent down a thick rope that is attached to a thinner rope. What happens when the wave reaches the junction? Explain in words, or draw a diagram.

Answers

Answer:

A fraction of the wave will be reflected at the junction and the remainder will be transmitted through the junction into the thin rope

Explanation:

When the junction of the thin and the thick rope is reached by the wave, the wave behaves in the following two ways;

1) A fraction of the incident wave from the thick rope to the junction/boundary of the thin rope will be reflected back to in the direction of the thick rope with a lower amplitude and upright

2) A fraction of the incident wave from the thick rope to the junction/boundary of the thin rope will be transmitted through the thin rope such that the transmitted pulse on the thin rope will have an higher amplitude than that of the thick rope due to the available energy in the wave pulse and the lesser weight of the thin rope.

Ahoy starting from rest moves with a distance of 200m in 10 seconds...Find the magnitude of acceleration

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is 2m/s² .

Explanation:

First, you have to find the velocity as it starts to travel 200m in 10s. The formula of velocity is V = Distance/Time, then you have to substitute the values into the formula :

[tex]v = d \div t[/tex]

[tex]let \: d = 200 \\ let \: t = 10[/tex]

[tex]v = 200 \div 10[/tex]

[tex]v = 20m/s[/tex]

Next, you have to substitute the values into the acceleration formula, a = (v-u)/t where v represents final velocity, u is initial velocity and t is time taken :

[tex]a = \frac{v - u}{t} [/tex]

[tex]let \: v = 20 \\ let \: u = 0 \\ let \: t = 10[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{20 - 0}{10} [/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{20}{10} [/tex]

[tex]a = 2m/ {s}^{2} [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N

a motorcar is moving with a velocity of 108 km / h and it takes 4s to stop after the brakes are applied calculate the force exerted by the brakes on the motorcar if it's mass along with the passengers is 1000 kg​

Answers

Answer: - 7500N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial Velocity of car = 108km/hr

Time taken to stop after applying brakes = 4s

Mass of passengers in car = 1000kg

Force exerted by the brakes on the car =?

After 4s, then final Velocity (V) = 0

Initial Velocity (u) of the car = 108km/hr

108km/hr = (108 × 1000)m ÷ (3600)s = 30m/s

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Acceleration of car = Change in Velocity with time

a = (v - u) / t

a = (0 - 30) / 4

a = - 30/ 4

a = - 7.5m/s^2

Therefore,

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Force exerted = 1000kg × (-7.5)m/s^2

Force exerted = - 7500N

Answer:

The force exerted by the brakes on the motor car is -7500 N.

Explanation:

Given :-

Mass of the motor car along with passengers (m)= 1000 kgInitial velocity (u) = 108 km/hTime taken (t) = 4 s

To find :-

The force exerted by the brakes on the motor car.

Solution :-

Since the car stops, the final velocity (v) will be 0 m/s.

• Initial velocity (u) = 108 km/h.

Converting initial velocity into m/s.

We know that,[tex] \sf{1\:km/h=\dfrac{5}{18}\:m/s}[/tex]

Then initial velocity,

= [108 × 5/18 ] m/s

= 30 m/s

Now find the force exerted by the brakes.

Formula used :

[tex]{\boxed{\sf{F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}}}}[/tex]

   [put values]

[tex]:\implies \sf \: F= \dfrac{1000(0 - 30)}{ 4} \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: F \: = \dfrac{ - 30000}{4} \\ \\ : \implies \sf \: F \: = - 7500[/tex]

The force exerted by the brakes on the motor car = -7500 N.

•The negative sign of force(F) means that the force was applied in opposite direction of motion.
