The answer to this is:

When an individual uses an algorithm to solve a problem, they are using a step-by-step procedure that assists them in attempting all possible alternatives for a solution. When an individual is using a heuristic to solve a problem, they are using a guiding principle or rule that assists them in disregarding some solutions while using other alternatives.

This is correct according to e2020

Hope this helped :)

Algorithms are a set of well-defined instructions for carrying out a certain task. It must be sound and complete, while a heuristic is something that helps you look for an answer. Its results are subject to chance. Heuristics only tell you what to look for. Not what to find.

A car sitting at a red light begins to accelerate at 2.0 m/s2 when the light turns green. It continues with this acceleration un

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

$d = 820 m$

Explanation:

here we know that car starts from rest and continue to accelerate till it will reach to maximum speed of 20 m/s

so we will have

$v_f - v_i = at$

$20 - 0 = 2t$

$t = 10 s$

so car will accelerate till t = 10 then it will move with uniform speed

so the distance moved by the car till it accelerates is given as

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$d = \frac{1}{2}(2)(10^2)$

$d_1 = 100 m$

now it will move with uniform speed for next 36 s

so we have

$d_2 = 20(36) = 720 m$

so total distance moved by the car is given as

$d = d_1 + d_2$

$d = 100 + 720$

$d = 820 m$
