Answer: option <span>A) a train moving north of east at an angle of 25°
</span>

Explanation:

1) You need to choose your axis. In this case North is vertical and positive, South is vertical and negative, East is horizontal and positive, and West is horizontal and negative.

2) The vector with the two positive components is a vector in the first quadrant (North and East). That is what North of East 25° means.

3) Regarding the other options:

<span>B) a bus moving North of East at an angle of 95°: since the angle is greater tnan 90° the vector is in the second quadrant: its horizontal component is negative.
</span>
<span /><span>
</span><span> C) a boat moving South of West at an angle of 40°: this is in the third quadrant: the two components are negative.</span>
<span /><span>
</span><span> D) a car moving south of west at an angle of 10°: as in the option C), this is in the third quadrant: the two components are negative.
</span>

A.

Two positive components means that the vector should lie in the first quadrant and not be parallel to the x or y axis; the only option that satisfies this is A.

Which trailer has more downward pressure where it attaches to the car?
VARVARA [1.3K]

The one that is loaded worst. The overall weight is not important; tongue weight is a matter of loading. Our 12,000 lb snow cat trailer, which has stops to position the cat properly, has under 100 lbs tongue weight. Excessive tongue weight is a Bad Thing because it reduces weight on the towing vehicle's front wheels, leading to instability.

Ancient Greek philosophers spent lots of time thinking about science and imaging explanations for the natural world. What part o
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Testing

Explanation:

Ancient Greek philosophers lived with the ideology to simply contemplate life. This means that their whole life revolved around thinking and questioning everything. This would include creative thinking, because they would sometimes come up with theories which require creativeness. They would often debate with their friends as to why their theory should be accepted or what their opinions were on the matter. More often than not, they argued a lot, and many philosophers went against some powerful people in the community and some were even sentenced to death.

The main process they didn't/couldn't do was the testing. They could never test certain theories because they did not have the means to.

You buy a AA battery in the store, and it is marked 1.5 V. If this marking is strictly accurate, while this battery is fresh its
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

when it is used in a circuit. its terminal voltage will be less than 1.5 V.

Explanation:

The terminal voltage of the battery when it is in use in circuits drops lower than the 1.5 V rating given to it due to internal resistance.

All batteries give internal resistances when used in circuits. The internal resistance (though very small) is usually modelled as connected in series with the battery. It is due to some form of interference from the chemical makeup of the battery.

Normally, while the battery is fresh, the voltage (V) obtained at its terminals when connected in series with a resistor of resistance R is V = IR; where I is the current flowing in this circuit.

But once the interenal resistance (r) of the battery comes into play,

V = I₁ (r + R)

The current in the circuit evidently drops (that is I₁ < I) and V = (I₁r + I₁R)

The voltage across the terminals of the battery is no longer V but is now (V) × [R/(R+r)] which is less than the initial V and it reduces as the internal resistance, r, increases.

Hope this Helps!!!
