At speeds over 30 mph, you should maintain a following distance of at least <u>three full seconds</u> behind the vehicle ahead of you.

As a general rule and common sense at a speed of 30 mph you can leave three full seconds so that you can achieve a prudent distance between the car you are driving and the car in front in order to be able to perform some kind of maneuver if an accident or unforeseen event occurs.

To count the full three seconds you can use the technique of counting the Mississippis as follows: Mississippi one, Mississippi two, Mississippi three.

<h3>What is an accident?</h3>

An accident is an unexpected event that generally causes damage, injury or negative consequences.

A football kicked in front of a goal post at an angle of 45 degree to the ground just clear the top by of the post 3m high. Calc
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

A. 10.84 m/s

B. 1.56 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Maximum height (H) = 3 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Velocity of projection (u) =?

Time (T) taken to hit the ground again =?

A. Determination of the velocity of projection.

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Maximum height (H) = 3 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Velocity of projection (u) =?

H = u²Sine²θ / 2g

3 = u²(Sine 45)² / 2 × 9.8

3 = u²(0.7071)² / 19.6

Cross multiply

3 × 19.6 = u²(0.7071)²

58.8 = u²(0.7071)²

Divide both side by (0.7071)²

u² = 58.8 / (0.7071)²

u² = 117.60

Take the square root of both side

u = √117.60

u = 10.84 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of projection is 10.84 m/s.

B. Determination of the time taken to hit the ground again.

Angle of projection (θ) = 45°

Velocity of projection (u) = 10.84 m/s

Time (T) taken to hit the ground again =?

T = 2uSine θ /g

T = 2 × 10.84 × Sine 45 / 9.8

T = 21.68 × 0.7071 / 9.8

T = 1.56 s

Therefore, the time taken to hit the ground again is 1.56 s.

Elaborate on the classification of aluminum. A) Aluminum is a noble gas and has a full valence electron shell, is chemically non
scZoUnD [109]
The correct option is (B) <span>Aluminum is a metal and is shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.

Since Aluminium is in group 13, and all the elements in group 13 are either metals or metalloids(Boron). Hence we are left with option (B) and (D). Boron is the only metalloid in group 13 and aluminium is a metal(not a metalloid); therefore, we are left with only one option which is Option (B). And Aluminium is </span>shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.<span>
