One must keep one car width of space to side of vehicle to avoid collision.

What is collision?

Collision is the sudden striking of two bodies that exerts forces on each other thus acelerating the objects in relatively very short time. One must maintain atleast one car width of space to side of vehicle to lower the risk of collision. If the space is lower than one car width than you should lower the speed of car to avoid collision.

One can also follow the two second disciple to avoid collision. According to this rule, the car should maintain two second safe distance behind any other vehicle .It acts as a safety buffer or defensive mechanism to avoid the risk of collision at all times at any speed. Also according to impulse momentum change theorem, the force on each object can be minimized by maintaing  more distance. As force and time are inversely proportional in collision.

Therefore, one car width distance is the safest minimum distance to avoid risks of collision .

Which BEST describes the difference between speed and velocity?
kirill [66]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

Explanation :

Speed : Speed is defined as the distance traveled by an object with respect to the time taken. It is a scalar quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude of an object not direction.

Velocity : Velocity is defined as the rate of change of position of an object with respect to the time. It is a vector quantity that means it tell us about the magnitude and direction of an object.

The only difference between the speed and the velocity is that the velocity tell us about magnitude and direction but speed tell us about magnitude only.

Hence, the correct option is, (D) Velocity includes rate of change and direction.

A mass is attached to a vertical spring, which then goes into oscillation. At the high point of the oscillation, the spring is i
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

0.34 sec

Explanation:

Low point of spring ( length of stretched spring ) = 5.8 cm

midpoint of spring = 5.8 / 2 = 2.9 cm

Determine the oscillation period

at equilibrum condition

Kx = Mg

g= 9.8 m/s^2

x = 2.9 * 10^-2 m

k / m = 9.8 / ( 2.9 * 10^-2 ) =  337.93

note : w = \sqrt{k/m}   = \sqrt{337.93} = 18.38 rad/sec

Period of oscillation =  2\pi  / w

                                  = 0.34 sec

erastovalidia [21]

To minimize neutron leakage from a reactor, the ratio of the surface area to the volume should be a minimum. For a given volume V the ratio of the sphere will be \frac{4.83598}{c^{\frac{1}{3} } }.

We know that the surface area and volume of the sphere is given by:

A=4 \pi r^{2}\\V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Therefore, the ratio between the surface area and the volume for the sphere will be:

\frac{A}{V}=\frac{4 \pi r^{2}\\}{\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}}=\frac{3}{r}

Equating the volume to the constant c, we will find the value of r.

V=c=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\\r= (\frac{3c}{4\pi} )^{\frac{1}{3} }

Substituting the value of r in the ration between surface area and volume, we get:

\frac{A}{V}=\frac{3}{ (\frac{3c}{4\pi} )^{\frac{1}{3} }}

Calculating the constants, we get:

\frac{4.83598}{c^{\frac{1}{3} } }

Hence, the ration between surface area and volume is \frac{4.83598}{c^{\frac{1}{3} } }
