A 1447 kg car accelerates from a complete stop at a traffic light to a speed of 28.5 m/s in 73 seconds (the car is on a perfectly flat surface). The ground exerts a horizontal force on the tires preventing them from slipping as the car accelerates. 1. What is the average of this force for the entire experiment?
2. If the tire does not slip at its point of contact (where the force is acting), how far does the force displace the tire? Thus, how much work is done on the real car system by this force?
3. Consider, rather, an equivalent force displacing a point-particle in space. How much work does the force do?
4. Since the kinetic energy of the car is increasing, conservation of energy tell us some other energy in our system must be decreasing. If the car's tires do not significantly increase in temperature, what kind of energy is decreasing?
i. gravitational potential energy
i. thermal energy
iii. rotational kinetic energy
iv. translational kinetic energy
v. chemical energy
5. Considering your answer above, what is the total change in this energy throughout the entire experiment? J

Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. thinking only about the first part of the question, mass, what might be a hypothesis that would illustrate the relationship between mass and kinetic energy? use the format of "if…then…because…” when writing your hypothesis.

High schoolphysics 5+3 pts a neon light consists of a glass tube with metal wires at each end. when connected to a high-voltage source, the gas glows. if a fly lands on the glass tube, what will most likely happen? a) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass conducts any free electrons back into the gas. b) electrons will flow directly from the metal wires along the glass and shock the fly. c) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass insulates it from the electrons in the gas and the metal. d) electrons that are moving through the gas will be conducted through the glass and shock the fly.

To understand the behavior of the electric field at the surface of a conductor, and its relationship to surface charge on the conductor. a conductor is placed in an external electrostatic field. the external field is uniform before the conductor is placed within it. the conductor is completely isolated from any source of current or charge. part a: which of the following describes the electric field inside this conductor? it is in the same direction as the original external field.it is in the opposite direction from that of the original external field.it has a direction determined entirely by the charge on its surface.it is always zero. part b: the charge density inside the conductor is: 0non-zero; but uniformnon-zero; non-uniforminfinite part c: assume that at some point just outside the surface of the conductor, the electric field has magnitude e and is directed toward the surface of the conductor. what is the charge density η on the surface of the conductor at that point? express your answer in terms of e and ϵ0
