An automobile's braking distance from 108 km/h is 80 m on level pavement. Assume the braking force is independent of grade. Determine the automobile's braking distance from 108 km/h when it is going up a 5° incline. The automobile's braking distance from 108 km/h when it is going up a 5° incline is m.

When the brakes are applied on a moving car, the frictional parts (brake or) are forced against the rotating parts of the car (brake or). The friction causes the rotating parts to slow down and stop. Just as the energy of the rotating parts is called kinetic, the friction used to stop them is called kinetic.
For the following five questions put it in the true or false box. 1. The greater the difference in pressure between two points, the greater the flow rate between the two points. true or false 2. During a burn out a car‘s tire does not move forward, but it rotates faster and faster. Given this motion the tire must be in a state of static equilibrium. true or false 3. For spheres of the same size and mass spinning at the same rate, the angular momentum of a hollow sphere is identical to the angular momentum of a solid sphere. True or false 4. If the second hand of a clock glitched and begin spinning around faster and faster in the clockwise direction, the angular acceleration would be positive by the usual sign convention. true or false 5. The absolute pressure of a tire is always larger than its gauge pressure. True or false. For the following five questions still in the blank. 1. An objects angular momentum is changed by exerting a ___ on it. 2. When calculating the work done…

Choose the best answer and explain it An engineer wants to design an improved elevator for a building. The original design used a motor that could lift 1000 kg through a distance of 20 meters in 30 seconds. The engineer wants a motor that can lift 800 kg through a distance of 30 meters in 20 seconds. Compared to the old motor, the new motor __________. Explain your answer. (A) Should exert a force of the same magnitude, but must provide larger power output (B) Should exert a force of a larger magnitude, and must provide a larger power output (C) Can exert a force of a smaller magnitude, and can provide a smaller power output (D) Can exert a force of a smaller magnitude, but must provide the same power output (E) Can exert a force of a smaller magnitude, but must provide a larger power output.
C)If both cyclists have 170 mm cranks on their bikes, what will be the mechanical advantage (considering only the movement of the feet with a constant force for walking and riding), in percent, that each rider will have achieved over walking the same distance? (This can be found by dividing the distance wallked by the distance the feet move in riding.)
JUST DRAW THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM. NO NEED TO SOLVE. THANK YOU In Rizal province, one of its power plants has been thoroughly monitored for possible conversion into a wind power plant. A propeller wind turbine is to be used. Survey showed that Rizal Province at a height of 10 meters above the ground has a minimum wind speed of 7.1 miles per hour duringthe month of June and a maximum wind speed of 12.9 miles per hour during the month of January. The minimum temperature is at 75 degree Fahrenheit during the month of January and maximum temperature is at 89 degree Fahrenheit during the month of May. The existing power plant has an output of 54MW. For the proposed wind power, the power coefficient of turbine is 35% and the generator efficiency is 95%. Theimpeller diameter is assumed not to exceed 90m. Determine the following:a. Theoretical Wind Power Outputb. Electrical Power Outputc. Number of turbines to be installed
