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.

Answer:
Valence electrons are outer shell electrons with an atom and can participate in the formation of chemical bonds. In single covalent bonds, typically both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair. The ground state of an atom is the lowest energy state of the atom.
Answer:
F= 25/2 = 12.5N
Explanation:
When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.
M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort
Answer:
Explanation:
velocity of sound in air at 20⁰C is 343 m /s
velocity of sound in water at 20⁰C is 1481 m /s
The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air so its frequency
= 343 / 2.86 = 119.93 .
This frequency of 119.93 will remain unchanged in water .
wavelength in water = velocity in water / frequency
= 1481 / 119.93
= 12. 35 m .
Hello!
a) Assuming this is asking for the minimum speed for the rock to make the full circle, we must find the minimum speed necessary for the rock to continue moving in a circular path when it's at the top of the circle.
At the top of the circle, we have:
- Force of gravity (downward)
*Although the rock is still connected to the string, if the rock is swinging at the minimum speed required, there will be no tension in the string.
Therefore, only the force of gravity produces the net centripetal force:
We can simplify and rearrange the equation to solve for 'v'.
Plugging in values:
b)
Let's do a summation of forces at the bottom of the swing. We have:
- Force due to gravity (downward, -)
- Tension force (upward, +)
The sum of these forces produces a centripetal force, upward (+).
Rearranging for 'T":
Plugging in the appropriate values:
