Good question. It like a fail safe,if you hit a car tail gate going slightly fast it come out to protect you from hitting your on the the wheel or the mirror. See if you don't have a seat belt or it just don't fully stop you the airbag might help.Like concussions.  I Hope This Help you :)

Answer:

It shortens the passengers stopping time, and this decreases the force.

Find the distance along an arc on the surface of the earth that subtends a central angle of 1 minutes (1 minute = 1/60 degree).
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

1.152 miles

Explanation:

Given: central angle = 1 minute = (\frac{1}{60}) ^{o}

           radius of the earth = 3960 miles

The length of an arc = \frac{\alpha }{360^{o} } 2\pir

where: \alpha is the central angle, and r is the radius.

Thus,

Distance along the arc = \frac{\alpha }{360^{o} } 2\pir

Distance along the arc = \frac{(\frac{1}{60}) ^{o}  }{360^{o} } x 2 x \frac{22}{7} x 3960

                                      = \frac{(\frac{1}{60}) ^{o}  }{360^{o} } x 24891.4286

                                      = 1.1524

The required distance along an arc is 1.152 miles.

Part 1 - Basic Equations
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

1. λ = 2 L, 2.  v = 2L f₁ , 3.    v = √ T /μ², 4.   μ = 2,287 10⁻³ kg / m , 5.   Δv / v = 0.058 , 6.    Δμ /  μ = 0.12 , 7. Δ μ = 0.3  10⁻³ kg / m ,

8.  μ = (2.3 ±0.3)  10⁻³ kg / m

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is

            v = λ f                1

Where f is the frequency and λ the wavelength

     

The speed is given by the physical quantities of the system with the expression

            v = √ T /μ²                   2

1) The fundamental frequency of a string is when at the ends we have nodes and a maximum in the center, therefore this is

                 L = λ / 2

                 λ = 2 L

2) For this we substitute in equation 1

              v = 2L f₁

3) let's clear from equation 2

             

The speed of a wave is

            v = λ f₁

Where f is the frequency and Lam the wavelength

The speed is given by the physical quantities of the system with the expression

           v = √ T /μ²                            2

4) linear density is

           μ = T / (2 L f₁)²

           μ = 5.08 / (2 0.812 29.02)²

           μ = 2,287 10⁻³ kg / m

We maintain three significant length figures, so the result is reduced to

           μ = 2.29 10⁻³ kg / m

5) the speed of the wave is

            v = 2 L f₁

The fractional uncertainty is

         Δv / v = ΔL / L + Δf₁ / F₁

         Δv / v = 0.02 / 0.812 + 1 / 29.02

         Δv / v = 0.024 + 0.034

         Δv / v = 0.058

6) the equation for linear density is

              μ = T / (2 L f₁)²

             Δμ / μ = 2 ΔL / L + 2Δf₁ / f₁

The tension is an exact value therefore its uncertainty is zero ΔT = 0

            Δμ / μ = 2 0.02 / 0.812 + 2 1 / 29.02

             Δμ /  μ = 0.12

7) absolute uncertainty

           Δ μ = e_{r}   μ

           Δ μ = 0.12 2.29 10⁻³ kg / m

           Δ μ = 0.3  10⁻³ kg / m

8)

           μ = (2.3 ±0.3)  10⁻³ kg / m

Fe has the electron configuration [Ar]3d64s2. What is the magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic elect
salantis [7]

Answer : The magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic electron is, \sqrt{6}\hbar

Explanation :

The formula used for orbital angular momentum is:

L=\sqrt{l(l+1)}\hbar

where,

L = orbital angular momentum

l = Azimuthal quantum number

As we are given the electronic configuration of Fe is, [Ar]3d^64s^2

Its most energetic electron will be for 3d electrons.

The value of azimuthal quantum number(l) of d orbital is, 2

That means, l = 2

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

L=\sqrt{2(2+1)}\hbar

L=\sqrt{6}\hbar

Therefore, the magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic electron is, \sqrt{6}\hbar

How does a bimetallic strip work in a sinple alarm system​
tatiyna
The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.
