Answer:

264.7 m

Explanation:

The net force felt by the car travelling along the slope is equal to the component of the weight parallel to the slope, so:

F=-mg sin \theta

where

m is the mass of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\theta=10^{\circ}

and the negative sign is due to the fact the force is opposite direction to the motion of the car

The acceleration of the car is therefore:

a=\frac{F}{m}=-gsin \theta=-9.8 sin 10^{\circ}=-1.7 m/s^2

Now we can find how far the car went up the hill by using the equation:

v^2-u^2 = 2ad

where

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

u = 30 m/s is the initial velocity

g = -1.7 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d is the distance covered

Solving for d,

d=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{0-30^2}{2(-1.7)}=264.7 m

Answer:

\dot Q=350.438\ W

Explanation:

Given:

<u>the thermal resistance in the form of </u>

R_1=\frac{x_1}{k_1} =0.095\ m^2.^{\circ}C.W^{-1}

R_2=\frac{x_2}{k_2} =0.704\ m^2.^{\circ}C.W^{-1}

where:

x_1\  \&\ x_2 are the thickness of the respective bricks

k_1\ \&\ k_2 are the respective coefficient of conductivity

temperature inside the house, T_h=24\ ^{\circ}C

temperature outside the house, \ T_c=10^{\circ}C

area of the wall, A=20\ m^2

Since the bricks and insulation are used to construct a wall then they must be used in series for better shielding.

<u>Using Fourier's law:</u>

\dot Q=k.A.\frac{dT}{x}

\dot Q={dT}\div {\frac{x}{k.A} }

in series the resistances get add up

\dot Q=dT\div (\frac{x_1}{k_1.A}+\frac{x_2}{k_2.A} )

\dot Q=(24-10)\div (\frac{0.095 }{20}+ \frac{0.704 }{20} )

\dot Q=350.438\ W

evablogger [386]
The thermal energy is where the work of friction comes from.  That is what stops it eventually.  In this case a counter force of 10N is applied over the distance of 30.0m.  The energy is given by Force*Distance.  Here this is 300J.  This friction work is the thermal energy.
