Fire extinguishers are typically red. Goes along with the red fire trucks and red being a color of emergency. While there isn't any standard, if we decided to change the colors of the fire extinguisher, people would be very confused and given the context, it could cost people's lives, so I'm thinking red will be the color of fire extinguishers for a while to come.

A vehicle has an initial velocity of v0 when a tree falls on the roadway a distance xf in front of the vehicle. The driver has a
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

v^2=v_o^2-2\times a\times (v_o.t)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of the vehicle, v_o

distance between the car and the tree, x_f

time taken to respond to the situation, t

acceleration of the car after braking, a

Using equation of motion:

v^2=u^2+2a.s ..............(1)

where:

v= final velocity of the car when it hits the tree

u= initial velocity of the  car when the tree falls

a= acceleration after the brakes are applied

s= distance between the tree and the car after the brakes are applied.

s=v_o\times t

Now for this situation the eq. (1) becomes:

v^2=v_o^2-2\times a\times (v_o.t) (negative sign is for the deceleration after the brake is applied to the car.)

An empty bottle has a mass of 35.00 grams. When filled with water, it has a mass of 98.44 grams. Of the same bottle is filled wi
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Specific gravity of other fluid = .854 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of water = 35 g

Mass of filled bottle with water = 98.44 g

Mass of filled bottle with fluid = 89.22 g

Computation:

Mass of water = 98.44g - 35g = 63.44g

Density of water = 1000 g/L

Volume of bottle = 63.44/1000 = 0.06344L

Mass of other liquid = 89.22g - 35g = 54.22g

Density of other liquid = 54.22g/0.06344L = 854.665826 g/L

Water has a specific gravity = 1

So ,  specific gravity of other fluid

1000 / 854.665826 = 1 / specific gravity of other fluid

Specific gravity of other fluid = .854 (Approx)

According to the article, which pattern of brain waves are most conducive to studying new information?
sashaice [31]
Alpha brain waves are those most conducive to studying new information.

When consciously alert, we generally function along a beta brain rhythm. In diminishing this rhythm to alpha, we transition into a state of physical and mental relaxation that is ideal for learning new information and storing facts and  data. Studies have shown that the effect of decreasing brain rhythm is linked to feelings of increased mental clarity and remembrance. As it is a prime condition for synthetic thought and creativity, it becomes easier to visualize and create associations (information is better learned and absorbed by using such study methods). 

Hope this helps! :)

As a runner crosses the finish line of a race, she starts decelerating from a velocity of 9 m/s at a rate of 2 m/s^2. Take the r
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

- 1 m/s, 20 m

Explanation:

u = 9 m/s, a = - 2 m/s^2, t = 5 sec

Let s be the displacement and v be the velocity after 5 seconds

Use first equation of motion.

v = u + a t

v = 9 - 2 x 5 = 9 - 10 = - 1 m/s

Use second equation of motion

s = u t + 1/2 a t^2

s = 9 x 5 - 1/2 x 2 x 5 x 5

s = 45 - 25 = 20 m

Crazy boy [7]
It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).
