One word problem that demonstrates negative acceleration?

A car travels at 30m/s and the driver sees a stoplight turn green 35ms ahead. If the driver immeditly steps on the break, what is the minimum acceleration needed from the brakes to stop in time. All information needed is given except final velocity which can be assumed to be zero. This is a problem I made up, if one is needed out of a textbook, look for any problem where an object is either slowing down, or moving towards the point of reference.


How do you adjust a pendulum on a clock?

The pendulum of a clock is usually constructed with some sort of clamp or sliding catchthat permits sliding the weight up and down the stick, raising or lowering its center of massand thus changing its effective length.-- If the clock is running too fast, and has to be turned back a few minutes every now and then,make the pendulum slightly longer, by sliding the weight down a bit on the stick. This makesthe pendulum swing slightly slower.-- If the clock is running too slow, and has to be turned a few minutes ahead to catch up everynow and then, make the pendulum slightly shorter, by sliding the weight up a bit on the stick.This makes the pendulum swing slightly faster.


How is the international thermonuclear reactor used to generate electricity?

I think you are running ahead of things! If you mean ITER, which is the next stage in this quest, and has just started building, this will only be an experiment and won't have any capability to generate electricity. I doubt if that will happen for another 50 years or so, if ever indeed.


If you are riding in a fast moving car in what direction would you throw an object so that it will return to your hand?

Forward. When you throw an object, you'll be traveling at a high acceleration and velocity fast enough that when you throw the object you'll catch very quickly, mostly because you would throw it slower than the acceleration of the car.-----------If you are accelerating, the above is true--you would need to throw ahead of you at an angle for it to return to your hand. However, if the car is traveling quickly but at a constant speed, you would simply throw it straight upward, like you normally would. This is because both you and the object are already traveling at the same speed in the same direction.
