this problem occurs in petroleum firefighting when fire streams are applied to the burning liquid surface at such an angle that

hot and / or burning oil is forced over the edge of the tank. the oil then flows down the side of the tank and you are now confronted with a fire on the ground as well as the one in the tank. this best defines which problem?

Petroleum has less density than water. So, when fire streams are applied to the burning liquid surface at such an angle that hot and / or burning oil is forced over the edge of the tank, the oil then flows down the side of the tank and you are now confronted with a fire on the ground as well as the one in the tank.

<h3>What are the reasons not to use fire streams during deal with  burning oil?</h3>

When you spray water on a regular fire, you're attempting to lower the flame's temperature and contain the fire.

Fuel for an oil fire is oil. Temperature and oxidizer are present in a fire (oxygen). Due to the fact that oil is lighter than water, an explosion may result if it floats above water while water sinks beneath oil.

Consequently, water shouldn't be used to put out oil fires.

A motorcycle begins at rest and accelerates uniformly S7.9 we want to find a time to take the motorcycle to reach a speed of 100
Len [333]

The motorbike reaches 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds

Explanation:

The motion of the motorbike is a uniformly accelerated motion (= constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the motorbike in this problem,

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

v = 100 km/h = 27.8 m/s is the final velocity

a=7.9 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Solving for t, we find the time it takes for the bike to reach that velocity:

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{27.8-0}{7.9}=3.5 s

Sketch a position-time graph for a bear starting
Dmitrij [34]

Explanation:

hopefully that makes sense. the position doesn't change over the 5 seconds, meaning it's stopped but time still continues. then when the slope is negative this shows the bear's position becoming negative (backing up, changing direction).

the object on the right gained mass so that it had as much mass as the object on the left, how would the gravitational force bet
kherson [118]

The gravitational force between the objects A. It would increase.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m_1,m_2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

In this problem, we are told that one of the object (the one on the right) gains mass: this means that, for instance, the value of m_2 increases. We can see from the equation that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the masses: therefore, if one of the masses increases (while the distance between the two objects remains constant), it means that the force also increases.

Therefore, the correct answer is

A. It would increase.
