Poor visibility, difficulties in colour perception, lessened colour contrast vision due to darker shadows and reduced peripheral vision, these are the reasons why one has to be extra careful while driving during hours of sunrise, sunset and night time.

<h3><u> Explanation: </u></h3>

Sunrise, sunset and night time are parts of the day with minimal or absolutely no presence of sunlight. To safely navigate roads, we require enough light in order to detect presence of other vehicles, signs and pedestrians. Less sunlight during sunrise and sunset light the sky but makes the roads and vehicles have a darker, less bright view. The contrast between colours is the least, making it difficult to identify objects and see clearly.

A rising or a setting sun can also lead to glares on the driver’s view and thus obstruct it. Since a change in ambient light is observed, our eyes need to adjust with this change and this isn’t spontaneous. Night time driving has headlight glares from approaching vehicles and reduced surrounding visibility. The eyes switching for vision adaptability from dark to bright light if vehicles approach and pass by is not a quick action. Hence the driver’s vision is compromised in every such case and this may lead to accidents.

In a 1.25-T magnetic field directed vertically upward, a particle having a charge of magnitude 8.50μC and initially moving north

Goshia [24]

Answer:

a) The sign of the charge is positive.

b) The magnetic force on the particle is 0.050 newtons.

Explanation:

The magnetic force F on a moving charge with velocity v passing through a magnetic field B is:

$\overrightarrow{F}=q\overrightarrow{v}\times\overrightarrow{B}$ (1)

Because it is a cross product, we can find the direction of the force using the right-hand rule, that is too the direction of the movement. We have two possibilities here because the velocity vector and magnetic field are perpendicular: the particle deflects towards east or toward west, which depends on the charge of the particle. Note that if you put your right hand fingers, except thumb, pointing towards north (direction of velocity) and later close them in the direction of the magnetic field, if you maintain your thumb perpendicular to this movement it will point towards east (See figure), so that will be de direction of the force if the charge is positive, but if the charge is negative, the direction will be opposite (towards west). So the charge has to be positive to deflects towards east.

Now by 1:

$F=qvB\sin\theta=(8.50\times10^{-6})(4750)(1.25)\sin90\simeq\mathbf{0.050\,N}$

Aaron Agin nodded off while driving home from play practice this past Sunday evening. His 1500-kg car hit a series of guardrails

Inessa [10]

Answer: 6.48m/s

Explanation:

First, we know that Impulse = change in momentum

Initial velocity, u = 19.8m/s

Let,

Velocity after first collision = x m/s

Velocity after second collision = y m/s

Also, we know that

Impulse = m(v - u). But then, the question said, the guard rail delivered a "resistive" impulse. Thus, our impulse would be m(u - v).

5700 = 1500(19.8 - x)

5700 = 29700 - 1500x

1500x = 29700 - 5700

1500x = 24000

x = 24000/1500

x = 16m/s

Also, at the second guard rail. impulse = ft, so that

Impulse = 79000 * 0.12

Impulse = 9480

This makes us have

Impulse = m(x - y)

9480 = 1500(16 -y)

9480 = 24000 - 1500y

1500y = 24000 - 9480

1500y = 14520

y = 14520 / 1500

y = 9.68

Then, the velocity decreases by 3.2, so that the final velocity of the car is

9.68 - 3.2 = 6.48m/s

An object of mass 24kg is accelerated up a frictionless place incline at an angle of 37° with horizontal by a constant force, st

RoseWind [281]

a) Average power: 1425 W

b) Instantaneous power at 3.0 sec: 2850 W

Explanation:

The motion of the object along the ramp is a uniformly accelerated motion (because the force applied is constant), so we can use the suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s = 18 m is the displacement along the ramp

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 3.0 s is the time taken

a is the acceleration of the object along the ramp

Solving for a,

$a=\frac{2s}{t^2}=\frac{2(18)}{(3.0)^2}=4 m/s^2$

Now we can apply Newton's second law to find the net force on the object:

$F=ma=(24 kg)(4 m/s^2)=96 N$

This net force is the resultant of the applied force forward ( $F_a$ ) and the component of the weight acting backward ( $mg sin \theta$ ), so we can find what is the applied force:

$F=F_a - mg sin \theta\\F_a = F+mg sin \theta = 96+(24)(9.8)(sin 37^{\circ})=237.5 N$

where

m = 24 kg is the mass of the object

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

Now we can finally find what is the work done by the applied force, which is parallel to the ramp, therefore:

$W=F_a s = (237.6)(18)=4276 J$

where s = 18 m is the displacement.

Therefore the average power needed is:

$P=\frac{W}{t}=\frac{4276}{3}=1425 W$

The instantaneous power at any point of the motion is given by

$P=F_av$

where

$F_a$ is the force applied

v is the velocity of the object

We already calculated the applied force:

$F_a=237.5 N$

While since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can find the velocity at the end of the 3.0 seconds using the suvat equation:

$v=u+at=0+(4)(3.0)=12.0 m/s$

And therefore, the instantaeous power at 3.0 sec is:

$P=Fv=(237.5)(12)=2850 W$
