I think the answer is: 6 inches

On average, the distance between Car's engine to the ground is around 8-10 inches.. But for small cars, the distance between car's engine to the ground could be as low as 5 inches - 6 inches from the ground.

When the flood reach the car's engine level, the water will got into the engine and disrupt it function, causing the car became unable to work properly

What type of plate boundary do most volcanoes occur along
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Subducting convergent boundary

Explanation:

Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.

Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes  that are higher than the sea level.

Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser  plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates)  creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 31 m/s to 15 m/s in 8 seconds. What is the automobile’s acceleration? (Remem
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The automobile's acceleration in that time interval is -2 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity.

The average acceleration in a given lapse of time is calculated as:

A = (final velocity - initial velocity)/time.

In this case, we have:

initial velocity = 31 m/s

final velocity = 15 m/s

time = 8 seconds.

Then the average acceleration is:

A = (15m/s - 31m/s)/8s = -2 m/s^2

What is energy?
mestny [16]

Answer:

Energy is the ability for an object to do work.

Kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses while in motion.

Stored Energy = Potential Energy.

Speed is a measurement of how quickly something is able to move or operate.

A muon has a rest mass energy of 105.7 MeV, and it decays into an electron and a massless particle. If all the lost mass is conv
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The electron’s velocity is 0.9999 c m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Rest mass energy of muon = 105.7 MeV

We know the rest mass of electron = 0.511 Mev

We need to calculate the value of γ

Using formula of energy

K_{rel}=(\gamma-1)mc^2

\dfrac{K_{rel}}{mc^2}=\gamma-1

Put the value into the formula

\gamma=\dfrac{105.7}{0.511}+1

\gamma=208

We need to calculate the electron’s velocity

Using formula of velocity

\gamma=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}

\gamma^2=\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}

\gamma^2-\gamma^2\times\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}=1

v^2=\dfrac{1-\gamma^2}{-\gamma^2}\times c^2

Put the value into the formula

v^2=\dfrac{1-(208)^2}{-208^2}\times c^2

v=c\sqrt{\dfrac{1-(208)^2}{-208^2}}

v=0.9999 c\ m/s

Hence, The electron’s velocity is 0.9999 c m/s.
