Which type of acceleration would be best if you were merging onto the interstate?

Physics
1 answer:
kondaur [170]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

If merging onto an interstate, it is best to merge at the speed of the moving traffic.

Explanation:

As a driver, you cannot always count on the other drivers to see you wanting to merge onto the interstate, and even if they see you, they might not be willing to stop just so you merge, therefore it is best advised to look for a gap in the traffic and merge at the traffic speed.

Alja [10]
<h2>Answer</h2>

option D)

2.4 seconds

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given in the question,

mass of car = 1200kg

speed of car = 19m/s

Force due to direction of travel

F = ma

  = 12000(a)

Force to due frictional force in reverse direction

-F = mg(friction coefficient)

   = -12000(9.81)(0.8)

<h2>-mg(friction coefficient) = ma  </h2>

(cancelling mass from both side of equation)

g(0.8) = a

(9.81)(0.8) = a

a = 7.848 m/s²

<h2>Use Newton Law of motion</h2><h3>vf - vo = a • t</h3>

where vf = final velocity

          vo = initial velocity

          a = acceleration

           t = time

0 - 19 = 7.8(t)

t = 19/7.8

  = 2.436 s

  ≈ 2.4s

D. be transported from place to place
because it does allow c to happen but not directly as it would have to go through condensation first.
When the water is evaporated in the air it can be moved from place to place by the wind.

A force exerted on an object produces acceleration. If the mass remains the same and the acceleration is doubled, the force must
Inga [223]
<h2>Answer</h2>

The force will be doubled.

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Using Newton Law II,

<h3>F = ma </h3>

So it can be seen in the formula that force is directly proportional to mass and acceleration.

if mass is doubled ---> force will be doubled, keeping acceleration constant.

Similarly,

if acceleration is doubled ---? force is will be doubled, keeping mass constant.

<em>It is assumed that there is no friction, the object is in the air with no air resistance.</em>

inysia [295]
The independent variable would be the cleaning products. 

The independent variable is the variable that you can manipulate. The change in the independent variable is not affected by other variables. So in this case, the independent variable would be the cleaning product because you will be changing it.
