7. Let’s compare the typical stopping distances for a car sliding to a stop from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s on a dry horizontal road, an icy horizontal road, and an icy hill. (a) How far does the car take to slide to a stop on a horizontal road if the coefficient of kinetic friction is ?ј = 0.60? (b) What is the stopping distance if the road is covered with ice with ?ј = 0.10? (take g = 9.8 N/kg) [3 mar​

An air-standard stirling cycle operates with a maximum pressure of 600 psia and a minimum pressure of 10 psia. the maximum volume of the air is 10 times the minimum volume. the temperature during the heat rejection process is 100°f. calculate the specific heat added to and rejected by this cycle, as well as the net specific work produced by the cycle. use constant specific heats at room temperature. the properties of air at room temperature are r

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. the concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30 kg c/m^3 fe, which are maintained constant. if the preexponential and activation energy are 6.2 x 10-7 m2 /s and 80,000 j/mol, respectively, compute the temperature at which the diffusion flux is 1.43 x 10^-9 kg/m^2 -s.

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples?
