Answer:

The moving car transfers Kinetic Energy to the parked car

Explanation:

Options are not supplied here but I have previously answered this question in a test and these options were supplied.

A) The moving car transfers kinetic energy to the parked car.

B) Kinetic energy in the moving car disappears.

C) Kinetic energy in the parked car is created.

D) The parked car transfers kinetic energy to the moving car.

A) This option provides us with the true outcome, the moving car transfers Kinetic energy to the parked car. This is in agreement with the law of conservation of energy. A transference of energy is the outcome of this event.

B) Kinetic energy cannot disappear, this is because according to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

If energy disappears, this would imply that energy is destroyed which is not agreeable.

C) Kinetic energy in the parked car is created... Just like the option B above, and according to the above stated law, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It is also not agreeable here that energy is created.

D) Energy can be transferred but, "a parked car indicates that the car only has potential energy" and as such cannot transfer kinetic energy to the moving car since it does not possess kinetic energy.

An object starts from rest, and accelerates at 2m/s2 for 10s. How far has it gone in that time
blagie [28]

Answer:

100m

Explanation:

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

u=0;t=10sec;a=2m/s²

s = 0(10) +  \frac{1}{2}(2 \times  {10}^{2} )

s=10²;100m

SashulF [63]

Answer: Technician B

Explanation: In manual cars,the clutch safety is designed to stop the vehicle from moving when you start the gnition. It prevents power from flowing into the circuit . This is found in the pedal mechanism of cars so depressing the clutch pedal will likely cause a defective in the clutch safety. You will begin to perceive the clutch burning and white fumes coming out from the pedal.
