The area on an entrance ramp where you increase speed to that of expressway traffic is the <u>acceleration lane.</u>

<u></u>

So the correct option is (D) that is acceleration lane.

A section or lane of adjustment for speed that has extra flooring on the borders of the lanes of traffic to let vehicles to accelerate until they merge with the flow of traffic.

Drivers must reach the posted speed limit before entering the acceleration lane, signal, locate a gap in traffic, and then merge.

Drivers can accelerate or decelerate in an area not being used by high-speed through traffic by using acceleration/deceleration lanes, also known as speed-change lanes or auxiliary lanes. The abrupt change in pace can result in stop-and-go traffic, crashes, and other problems on freeways and some major streets. These issues can be reduced by including acceleration/deceleration lanes in the roadway design.

You move a 25 N object 5 meters. If it takes 8 s how much power did you do?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

15.625 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the worked performed per unit of time:

Power = Work / time

The work done is Force * distance, so in our case the work is:

Work = 25 M * 5 m = 125 J

Then the power will be:

Power = 125 J / 8 sec = 15.625 watts

A 30 ohm resistor and a 20 ohm resistor are
Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

A 1.8 kg uniform rod with a length of 90 cm is attached at one end to a frictionless pivot. It is free to rotate about the pivot
Leokris [45]

Answer:

a. 32.67 rad/s²  b. 29.4 m/s²

Explanation:

a. The initial angular acceleration of the rod

Since torque τ = Iα = WL (since the weight of the rod W is the only force acting on the rod , so it gives it a torque, τ at distance L from the pivot )where I = rotational inertia of uniform rod about pivot = mL²/3 (moment of inertia about an axis through one end of the rod), α = initial angular acceleration, W = weight of rod = mg where m = mass of rod = 1.8 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and L = length of rod = 90 cm = 0.9 m.

So, Iα = WL

mL²α/3 = mgL

dividing through by mL, we have

Lα/3 = g

multiplying both sides by 3, we have

Lα = 3g

dividing both sides by L, we have

α = 3g/L

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

α = 3g/L

= 3 × 9.8 m/s²/0.9 m

= 29.4/0.9 rad/s²

= 32.67 rad/s²

b. The initial linear acceleration of the right end of the rod?

The linear acceleration at the initial point is tangential, so a = Lα = 0.9 m × 32.67 rad/s² = 29.4 m/s²
