(a) 95.9 m

The initial velocity of the car is

u=53.0 km/h = 14.7 m/s

The car moves by uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the SUVAT equation:

v^2 - u^2 = 2ad

where

v = 0 is the final velocity

d is the stopping distance of the car

a is the acceleration of the car

The force of friction against the car is

$F_f = - \mu mg$

where

$\mu=0.115$ is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the car

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

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration is

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{-\mu mg}{m}=-\mu g$

Substituting into the previous equation:

$v^2 - u^2 = -2\mu g d$

and solving for d:

$d=\frac{v^2 -u^2}{-2\mu g}=\frac{0-(14.7 m/s)^2}{-2(0.115)(9.8 m/s^2)}=95.9 m$

(b) 19.1 m

This time, the coefficient of friction is

$\mu = 0.575$

So the acceleration due to friction is:

$a=-\mu g = -(0.575)(9.8 m/s^2)=-5.64 m/s^2$

And substituting into the SUVAT equation:

v^2 - u^2 = 2ad

we can find the new stopping distance:

$d=\frac{v^2 -u^2}{-2a}=\frac{0-(14.7 m/s)^2}{2(-5.64 m/s^2)}=19.1 m$

relativism, roughly put, is the view that truth and falsity, right and wrong, standards of reasoning, and procedures of justification are products of differing conventions and frameworks of assessment and that their authority is confined to the context giving rise to them. more precisely, “relativism” covers views which maintain that—at a high level of abstraction—at least some class of things have the properties they have (e.g., beautiful, morally good, epistemically justified) not simpliciter, but only relative to a given framework of assessment (e.g., local cultural norms, individual standards), and correspondingly, that the truth of claims attributing these properties holds only once the relevant framework of assessment is specified or supplied. relativists characteristically insist, furthermore, that if something is only relatively so, then there can be no framework-independent vantage point from which the matter of whether the thing in question is so can be established.

relativism has been, in its various guises, both one of the most popular and most reviled philosophical doctrines of our time. defenders see it as a harbinger of tolerance and the only ethical and epistemic stance worthy of the open-minded and tolerant. detractors dismiss it for its alleged incoherence and uncritical intellectual permissiveness. debates about relativism permeate the whole spectrum of philosophical sub-disciplines. from ethics to epistemology, science to religion, political theory to ontology, theories of meaning and even logic, philosophy has felt the need to respond to this heady and seemingly subversive idea. discussions of relativism often also invoke considerations relevant to the very nature and methodology of philosophy and to the division between the so-called “analytic and continental” camps in philosophy. and yet, despite a long history of debate going back to plato and an increasingly large body of writing, it is still difficult to come to an agreed definition of what, at its core, relativism is, and what philosophical import it has. this entry attempts to provide a broad account of the many ways in which “relativism” has been defined, explained, defended and criticized.

Aheat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. the same engine running backward is called a heat pump if its purpose is to exhaust warm air into the hot reservoir. heat pumps are widely used for home heating. you can think of a heat pump as a refrigerator that is cooling the already cold outdoors and, with its exhaust heat qh, warming the indoors. perhaps this seems a little silly, but consider the following. electricity can be directly used to heat a home by passing an electric current through a heating coil. this is a direct, 100% conversion of work to heat. that is, 19.0 \rm kw of electric power (generated by doing work at the rate 19.0 kj/s at the power plant) produces heat energy inside the home at a rate of 19.0 kj/s. suppose that the neighbor's home has a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 4.00, a realistic value. note: with a refrigerator, "what you get" is heat removed. but with a heat pump, "what you get" is heat delivered. so the coefficient of performance of a heat pump is k=qh/win. an average price for electricity is about 40 mj per dollar. a furnace or heat pump will run typically 200 hours per month during the winter. what does one month's heating cost in the home with a 16.0 kw electric heater? what does one month's heating cost in the home of a neighbor who uses a heat pump to provide the same amount of heating?
