What percentage of railroad crossing crashes result from a vehicle driving into the side of a train?

The percentage of railroad crossing crashes that results from a vehicle driving into the side of a train is 25%.  
These crashes usually occur as the result of drivers intentionally circumventing warning equipment used at railroad crossings. Drivers typically used their senses to determine the proximity of the train and attempt to cross quickly rather than wait for the train to pass before crossing.

A paintball is shot horizontally in the positive x direction at time t after the ball is shot it is 4 cm to the right and 4 cm b
Artist 52 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

At time 2t the paint ball is at 8 cm to the right and 16 cm to the bottom

<u>Explanation:</u>

 We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

Considering the horizontal motion of paint ball

    Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm

    Initial velocity = u m/s

   Acceleration = 0 m/s^2

So 4 = u*t+\frac{1}{2} *0*t^2\\ \\ u = \frac{4}{t}

Now at time 2t,

  S= u*2t+\frac{1}{2} *0*(2t)^2\\ \\=\frac{4}{t} *2t\\ \\ =8cm

  So horizontal distance traveled in time 2t = 8 cm to the right

Now considering the vertical motion of paint ball

  Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm

    Initial velocity = 0 m/s

   Acceleration = -g m/s^2

4=0*t-\frac{1}{2} *g*t^2\\ \\ t^2=\frac{-8}{g}

At time 2t,

     S=0*2t-\frac{1}{2} *g*(2t)^2\\ \\ =-\frac{1}{2} *g*4*\frac{-8}{g}\\ \\ =16 cm

 So vertical distance traveled in time 2t = 16 cm to the bottom

How many neutrons is there in that element that has 36 protons and 36 electrons
bagirrra123 [75]
You need to know the mass number to work it out. I can see you have it but it's not visible on your photo.

Every proton weighs 1 and every neutron weighs 1 so if you know the total mass of the nucleus and the number of protons, then you can do:
Mass Number - Proton Number = Neutron Number
because the rest of the mass (that isn't from the protons) must come from the neutrons. Make sense?

1. If you were the organizer of this dance event, are you favor in moving the date on May? Why
topjm [15]

Answer:

I am in favor of the dance event being in may. Because it is nice weather outside, more people will decide to come and spend their time there. It is also light in the evening in may, meaning that you could have the dance event at any time, and younger people will still feel safe at night, meaning their parents will be more open to lwtting kids go.
