Answer:False

Explanation:

Turn the key to lock is not advisable as it lock the steering wheel and may create a dangerous situation.

Following steps can be taken in this situation

  • Try to press the brake to stop the vehicle
  • Shift gear to neutral in order to cease the acceleration of car.
  • Try to lift the gas pedal in order to decrease the velocity of car.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The above statement is true as when we turn the key to lock the steering wheel the engine is  also turned off. This makes the situation safer for the driver. Provided the driver need not change direction. Moreover, warn other drivers by blinking or flashing the hazard lights.

How much time is needed to produce 720 Joules of work if 90 watts of power is used?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

power (P) is defined as the rate at which work is done.

power is measured in Watts (W) , when the work done is measured in Joules (J) and time in seconds

by the definition of power,

Power=\frac{work.done}{time.taken} \\ \\ time.taken=\frac{work.done}{power}\\=\frac{720J }{90W} \\ \\ =8 s

Consider the interference pattern produced by two parallel slits of width a and separation d, in which d = 3a. The slits are ill
laila [671]

Answer:

a)   m =1  θ = sin⁻¹  λ  / d,  m = 2        θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 2d) ,   c)     m = 3

Explanation:

a) In the interference phenomenon the maxima are given by the expression

         d sin θ = m λ

the maximum for m = 1 is at the angle

          θ = sin⁻¹  λ  / d

the second maximum m = 2

          θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 2d)

the third maximum m = 3

        θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 3d)

the fourth maximum m = 4

       θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 4d)

b) If we take into account the effect of diffraction, the intensity of the maximums is modulated by the envelope of the diffraction of each slit.

       I = I₀ cos² (Ф) (sin x / x)²

       Ф = π d sin θ /λ

       x = pi a sin θ /λ

where a is the width of the slits

with the values ​​of part a are introduced in the expression and we can calculate intensity of each maximum

c) The interference phenomenon gives us maximums of equal intensity and is modulated by the diffraction phenomenon that presents a minimum, when the interference reaches this minimum and is no longer present

maximum interference       d sin θ = m λ

first diffraction minimum    a sin θ = λ

we divide the two expressions

                       d / a = m

In our case

                   3a / a = m

                    m = 3

order three is no longer visible

Part A Determine the absolute pressure on the bottom of a swimming pool 30.0 m by 8.7 m whose uniform depth is 1.8 m . Express y
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

17.66 kPa

Explanation:

The volume of water in the swimming pool is the product of its dimensions

V = 30 * 8.7 * 1.8 = 469.8 cubic meters

Let water density \rho = 1000 kg/m^3, and g = 9.81 m/s2 we can calculate the total weight of water in the swimming pool

W = mg = \rho V g = 1000 * 469.8 * 9.81 = 4608738 N

The area of the bottom

A = 30 * 8.7 = 261 square meters

Therefore the pressure is its force over unit area

P = F/A = 4608738  / 261 = 17658 N/m^2 or 17.66 kPa
