The new fuse will not blow up when a higher current is flowing and the circuit wont be broken and high current can heat up the object and cause a fire boom

ivanzaharov [21]

Solution: C. Pangea

The hypothesis of Continental drift suggests that in past, there was only one landmass on the Earth -Pangaea which drifted apart due to movement of plate tectonics causing earthquake. This hypothesis is supported by many evidences which includes presence of similar fossils on different landmasses, common land features such as widespread presence of glacial sediments etc.

In a slap shot, a hockey player accelerates the puck from a velocity of 8.00 m/s to 40.0 m/s in the same direction. If this shot

We use the equations of motion,

v = u + at                                               (A)

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as                                (B)

Here, v is final velocity of the body, u is initial velocity of the body, a is the acceleration of the body, t is the time taken in the motion and s is distance traveled by the body.

Given u = 8 \ m/s, v = 40 \ m/s and t = 3.33 \times 10^{-2} \ s.

So, from equation (A)

40 \ m/s = 8 \ m/s + a ( 3.33 \times 10^{-2 } \ s) \\\\ a =  \frac{32 \ m/s}{3.33\times 10^{-2 } \ s  }  = 9.6 \times 10^{2} \ m/s^2

Now from the  equation (B),

(40 \ m/s)^2 = (8 \ m/s)^2 + 2 (9.6 \times 10^{2} m/s^2) \times s  \\\\ s = \frac{(40 \ m/s)^2-(8 \ m/s)^2}{2 (9.6 \times 10^{2} m/s^2} = 0.8 \ m

Thus, the distance over which the puck accelerates is 0.8 m.
