(a) calculate the force (in n) needed to bring a 1100 kg car to rest from a speed of 85.0 km/h in a distance of 125 m (a fairly typical distance for a non-panic stop). (b) suppose instead the car hits a concrete abutment at full speed and is brought to a stop in 2.00 m. calculate the force exerted on the car and compare it with the force found in part (a).

(a) -2451 N

We can start by calculating the acceleration of the car. We have:

is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 125 m is the stopping distance

So we can use the following equation

To find the acceleration of the car, a:

Now we can use Newton's second Law:

F = ma

where m = 1100 kg to find the force exerted on the car in order to stop it; we find:

and the negative sign means the force is in the opposite direction to the motion of the car.

(b)

We can use again the equation

To find the acceleration of the car. This time we have

is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 2.0 m is the stopping distance

Substituting and solving for a,

So now we can find the force exerted on the car by using again Newton's second law:

As we can see, the force is much stronger than the force exerted in part a).

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.

hope this !

the best answer for these questions would be:

1.            c. is smaller

2.            d) concrete operational

3.            b) interaction with the environment – the children interact with their environment can them learn more.

4.            a) parents who reason openly with children can limit a child’s cognitive ability.
