two cars on a straight road at time zero are beside each other. the first car, traveling at speed 30 m/s, is passing the second

car, which is traveling at 24 m/s. seeing a cow on the road ahead, the driver of each car starts to slow down at 6.0 m/s^2. find the expression of the velocity of the second car.

I believe this problem ask to express the velocity of the first car and second car in terms of t.

The general expression for the velocity is given as:

v = v0 + a t

where v is the velocity, v0 is the initial velocity, a is acceleration, t is time

 

a. velocity equation for the first car

v = 30 – 6 t

 

b. velocity equation for the second car

v = 24 – 6 t

 

<span>We can see that the acceleration is negative because both cars are slowing down (deceleration).</span>

Which part of a scientific argument must be supported by valid data? claim evidence reasoning theory
nikitadnepr [17]
This question is a bit ambiguous because all parts of a scientific argument must be supported by valid data. However, among the choices, the closest synonym to "valid data" would be evidence. Evidence is the body of facts or information that support  a given idea.

In the lab setup above, block 1 is being pulled across a smooth surface by a light string connected across a pulley to a falling
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

As block 1 moves from point A to point B, the work done by gravity on block 2 is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the two-block system.

Explanation:

As block 2 goes down , work is done by gravity on block 2 . This is converted

into kinetic energy of block 1 and block 2 . Work done by gravity is mgh which can be measured easily . kinetic energy of both the blocks can also be measured.

Although blood cells are contained within a special liquid called plasma, the cells themselves are___________.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Solid

Explanation:

The plasma is the liquid part of blood, it is 90% and accounts for 55% of blood volume. It is what red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets move around in. These cells remain solid within the plasma. I hoped this helped!

A ball is thrown with a velocity of 35 meters per second at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. which quantity has a magnitude
enot [183]
The quantity that has a magnitude of zero when the ball is at the highest point in its trajectory is the vertical velocity.

In fact, the motion of the ball consists of two separate motions:
- the horizontal motion, on the x-axis, which is a uniform motion with constant velocity v_x=v_0 cos 30^{\circ}, where v_0=35 m/s
- the vertical motion, on the y-axis, which is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2 directed downwards, and with initial velocity v_y=v_= sin 30^{\circ}. Due to the presence of the acceleration g on the vertical direction (pointing in the opposite direction of the initial vertical velocity), the vertical velocity of the ball decreases as it goes higher, up to a point where it becomes zero and it reverses its direction: when the vertical velocity becomes zero, the ball has reached its maximum height.

Two lasers, one red (with wavelength 633.0 nm) and the other green (with wavelength 532.0 nm), are mounted behind a 0.150-mm sli
Orlov [11]

Answer:

a.3.20m

b.0.45cm

Explanation:

a. Equation for minima is defined as: sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}

Given m=3,\lambda=6.33\times 10^-^7 and \alpha=0.00015:

#Substitute our variable values in the minima equation to obtain \theta:

\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{3\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01266rad

#draw a triangle to find the relationship between \theta, y \ and L.

tan(\theta)=y/L               #where y=4.05cm

L=y/tan(\theta)=3.20

Hence the screen is 3.20m from the split.

b.  To find the closest minima for green(the fourth min will give you the smallest distance)

#Like with a above, the minima equation will be defined as:

sin \theta=\frac{m\lambda}{\alpha}, where m=4 given that it's the minima with the smallest distance.

sin \theta=\frac{4\lambda}{\alpha}\\\theta=sin^-^1 (\frac{4\times 6.33\times 10^-^7}{0.00015})\\\\\theta=0.01688rad

#we then use tan(\theta)=y/L to calculate L=4.5cm

Then from the equation subtract y_3 from y:

4.50cm-4.05cm=0.45cm

Hence, the distance \bigtriangleup y is 0.45cm
