When driving in heavy rain, or on a flooded road, your tires can ride on a thin film of water like skis;

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is letter a. It is best to slow down in situations of heavy rain or flooded road as skid could be the result if you lose out of control because the driver isn't slowing down. That is why it is being said that tires can ride on a thin film of water skis as it could skid if it has lost control if the driver hadn't slowed down.

Answer:

Option b. it has the same position and the same acceleration as A

Explanation:

Let's analyze every statement:

a. it has the same position and the same velocity as A

In the instant where B passes A, they Do have the same position. Velocity however, cannot be the same because if they were, ball B would never pass ball A. So, this is false.

b. it has the same position and the same acceleration as A

As we said in the previous option, the position is the same. The acceleration is gravity for both balls, so this is true.

c. it has the same velocity and the same acceleration as A

Acceleration is the same but velocities are not, so this is false.

d. it has the same displacement and the same velocity as A

The distance they have traveled is the same, so the displacement is the same, but the velocity is not, so this is false.

e. it has the same position, displacement and velocity as A

The position and displacement is the same but not velocity, so this is false.

Only option b is true.

In the ENGR 10 lab (E391), there are 50 long light bulbs (P=100 W) and 30 regular bulbs (P=60 W). How much energy is consumed li

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Total energy saving will be 0.8 KWH

Explanation:

We have given there are 50 long light bulbs of power 100 W so total power of 50 bulb = 100×50 = 5000 W = 5 KW

30 bulbs are of power 60 W

So total power of 30 bulbs = 30×60 = 1800 W = 1.8 KW

Total power of 80 bulbs = 1.8+5 = 6.8 KW

Total time = 3 hour

We know that energy $E=power\times time=6.8\times 3=20.4KWH$

Now power of each CFL bulb = 25 W

So power of 80 bulbs = 80×25 = 2000 W = 2 KW

Energy of 80 bulbs = 2×3 = 6 KWH

So total energy saving = 6.8-6 = 0.8 KWH

The length of a wire 2.00 m is measured as 2.02m. What is the percentage error in the measurement?

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Percent error can be found by dividing the absolute error (difference between measure and actual value) by the actual value, then multiplying by 100.

$Percent Error=\frac{V_{measured}- V_{true} } {V_{true}} *100$

The measured value is 2.02 meters and the actual value is 2.00 meters.

$V_{measured}=2.02\\\\V_{true}=2.00$

$Percent Error=\frac{2.02-2.00}{2.00} *100$

First, evaluate the fraction. Subtract 2.00 from 2.02

$Percent Error=\frac{0.02}{2.00}*100$

Next, divide 0.02 by 2.00

$PercentError=0.01 *100$

Finally, multiply 0.01 and 100.

$Percent Error=1\\Percent Error= 1 \%$

The percent error is 1%.

Suppose that the current in the solenoid is i(t. within the solenoid, but far from its ends, what is the magnetic field b(t due

Mkey [24]

The answer is B(t) = constants x I(t)

Please take precaution on the point that it is an independent field of its radial position, if the point is measured well in the solenoid. (also the radial position is the axis of its symmetry)

Sharks are generally negatively buoyant; the upward buoyant force is less than the weight force. This is one reason sharks tend

Tresset [83]

Answer:

8.67807 N

34.7123 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of shark = 92 kg

$\rho_{se}$ = Density of seawater = 1030 kg/m³

$\rho_{f}$ = Density of freshwater = 1000 kg/m³

$\rho_{sh}$ = Density of shark = 1040 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Net force on the fin is (seawater)

$F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1030\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=8.67807\ N$

The lift force required in seawater is 8.67807 N

Net force on the fin is (freshwater)

$F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=34.7123\ N$

The lift force required in a river is 34.7123 N
