Position yourself with a clear line-of-sight so you can search the traffic environment about __________ seconds ahead.
maxonik [38]

Answer:

30 seconds ahead.

Explanation:

Its about 90% of the decisions which are made by someone while driving based on what they see. The vision must be good to make the decision accurately and timely before reacting to the environment.

Line of sight is define as the view which you can see without any obstruction. The best condition of proper line of sight is that someone is needed to see in all direction front, behind, left and right.

To establish the clean line of sight the person should search the traffic environment about 30 seconds ahead.

Find the acceleration of an 800-kg car that has a net force of 4,000 N acting upon it.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car is 5m/s²

Explanation:

Given data

Force F= 4,000N

Mass of car m= 800kg

Acceleration a= ?

Applying the Newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the external force and takes place in the direction of the force

F=ma

a= F/m

a= 4000/800

a=5m/s²

Gayle runs at a speed of 3.85 m/s and dives on a sled, initially at rest on the top of a frictionless snow-covered hill. After s
enot [183]

Answer:

Final velocity at the bottom of hill is 15.56 m/s.

Explanation:

The given problem can be divided into four parts:

1. Use conservation of momentum to determine the speed of the combined mass (Gayle and sled)

From the law of conservation of momentum (perfectly inelastic collision), the combined velocity is given as:  

p_i = p_f  

m_1u_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v

v = \frac{(m_1u_1 + m_2v_2)}{(m_1 + m_2)}

v=\frac{[50.0\ kg)(3.85\ m/s) + 0]}{(50.0\ kg + 5.00\ kg)}= 3.5\ m/s  

2. Use conservation of energy to determine the speed after traveling a vertical height of 5 m.

The velocity of Gayle and sled at the instant her brother jumps on is found from the law of conservation of energy:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]}

Here, initial velocity is the final velocity from the first stage. Therefore:  

v(f) = \sqrt{[(3.5)^2+2(9.8)(5.00-0)]}= 10.5\ m/s

3. Use conservation of momentum to find the combined speed of Gayle and her brother.  

Given:

Initial velocity of Gayle and sled is, u_1(i)=10.5 m/s

Initial velocity of her brother is, u_2(i)=0 m/s

Mass of Gayle and sled is, m_1=55.0 kg

Mass of her brother is, m_2=30.0 kg

Final combined velocity is given as:

v(f) = \frac{[m_1u_1(i) + m_2u_2(i)]}{(m_1 + m_2)}  

v(f)=\frac{[(55.0)(10.5) + 0]}{(55.0+30.0)}= 6.79 m/s  

4. Finally, use conservation of energy to determine the final speed at the bottom of the hill.

Using conservation of energy, the final velocity at the bottom of the hill is:  

E(i) = E(f)  

KE(i) + PE(i) = KE(f) + PE(f)  

0.5mv^2(i) + mgh(i) = 0.5mv^2(f) + mgh(f)  

v(f) = \sqrt{[v^2(i) + 2g(h(i) - h(f))]} \\v(f)=\sqrt{[(6.79)^2 + 2(9.8)(15 - 5.00)]}\\v(f)= 15.56\ m/s

One way to cool a gas is to let it expand. When a certain gas under a pressure of 5.00 x 10^6 Pa at 25.°C is allowed to expand t
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The final temperature is T2= 5.35°C

Explanation:

Apply the Gay-lussacs's law we have

\frac{P1}{T1} = \frac{P2}{T2}

P1, initial pressure= 5.00 x 10^6 Pa

T1, initiation temperature= 25.°C

P2, final pressure= 1.07 x 10^6 Pa

T2, final temperature= ?

\frac{5.00 * 10^6}{25} =\frac{1.07 *10^6}{T2} \\

Cross multiplying and making T2 subject of formula we have

T2 =\frac{1.07 *10^6*25}{5.00 * 10^6} \\\\T2= \frac{26.75}{5} \\T2= 5.35

T2= 5.35°C
