Answer:
(C) length / height of the plane
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane can be determined using different variables. In this case, the geometry of the setup is relevant. The advantage is proportional to the length of the plane, and inversely proportional to the height: it is the ratio (length) / (height) of the plane. For example, given a desired, fixed height, a long inclined plane gives you a bigger mechanical advantage than a short inclined plane. In this example, pushing an object up the long plane will require a smaller force, than it would on the short plane.
Strictly speaking, (D) would also "allow you to determine the mechanical advantage" because you could simply invert the ratio listed under (D). However, (C) is the best, direct, answer.
Answer:
1) Skid
2)<u> </u>Rocking
3) Oversteer situation
4) Controlled breaking
5) Overdriving headlights
6) Hydroplaning
7) Understeer situation
Explanation:
1) A <u>skid</u> results when a vehicle loses part or all of its grip on the road
2)<u> Rocking</u> is a technique that can be applied when trying to move your vehicle out of deep snow
3) The action of vehicle's rear end sliding out to a side is called an <u>oversteer situation</u>
4) <u>Controlled breaking</u> is a technique of reducing your speed as quick as possible while maintaining control of your vehicle
5) Driving at a speed where the stopping distance of your vehicle is longer than the distance you can see with your headlights is called <u>overdriving headlights</u>
6) <u>Hydroplaning</u> occurs when a tire loses road surface contact and rises on top of water
7) It is an <u>understeer situation</u> when your front tires begin to plow and your vehicle is not responding or not responding as quickly as it should, to a steering point
