49d

Further explanation

This case is about uniformly accelerated motion.

Given:

The initial speed was v takes distance d to stop after the brakes are applied.

Question:

What is the stopping distance if the car is initially traveling at speed 7.0v?

Assume that the acceleration due to the braking is the same in both cases. Express your answer using two significant figures.

The Process:

The list of variables to be considered is as follows.

$\boxed{u \ or \ v_i = initial \ velocity}$ $\boxed{u \ or \ v_t \ or \ v_i = terminal \ or \ final \ velocity}$ $\boxed{a = acceleration \ (constant)}$ $\boxed{d = distance \ travelled}$

The formula we follow for this problem are as follows:

$\boxed{ \ v^2 = u^2 + 2ad \ }$

a = acceleration (in m/s²)u = initial velocity v = final velocityd = distance travelled

Step-1

We substitute v as the initial speed, distance of d, and zero for final speed into the formula.

$\boxed{ \ 0 = v^2 + 2ad \ }$

$\boxed{ \ v^2 = -2ad \ }$

Both sides are divided by -2d, we get $\boxed{ \ a = \Big( -\frac{v^2}{2d} \Big) \ . . . \ (Equation-1) \ }$

Step-2

We substitute 7.0v as the initial speed, zero for final speed, and Equation-1 into the formula.

$\boxed{ \ 0 = (7.0v)^2 + 2 \Big( -\frac{v^2}{2d} \Big)d' \ }$

Here d' is the stopping distance that we want to look for.

$\boxed{ \ 2 \Big( \frac{v^2}{2d} \Big)d' = (7.0v)^2 \ }$

We crossed out 2 in above and below.

$\boxed{ \ \Big( \frac{v^2}{d} \Big)d' = 49.0v^2 \ }$

We multiply both sides by d.

$\boxed{ \ v^2 d' = 49.0v^2 d \ }$

We crossed out v^2 on both sides.

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ d' = 49.0d \ }}$

Hence, by using two significant figures, the stopping distance if the car is initially traveling at speed 7.0v is 49d.

answer: 802.3 kilo joules of energy represents 191.75 kilo calorie of energy.

explanation:

energy released during combustion of one mole methane = 802.3 kilo joules

if 1 kilo joule = 0.239006 kilo calorie

then ,802.3 kilo joule will be = 802.3 $\times$ 0.239006 kilo calorie

802.3 kilo joule = 191.75 kilo calorie

hence, the energy in kilo calorie is 191.75 kilo calorie.
