The energy expenditure value of traveling by car is 3.6 MJ/passenger-kilometer. For one person making a trip of 1000 km, if a ga

Answer:

30[gal] would be requiered.

Explanation:

The consumption ratio is given by the following expression:

\frac{3.6[MJ]}{[1pass-km]}

To find the amount of energy needed we must multiply the ratio by the number of passengers, in this way the unit passenger-kilometer is removed from the denominator.

\frac{3.6[MJ]}{[1 pass-km]}*1[pass-1000km]\\\\ = 3600[MJ]

1 gal = 120 [MJ]

  x    = 3600[MJ]

x = 30 [gal]

pogonyaev

Answer:

Force(f)= mass x acceleration

Acceleration (a) is the rate of change in velocity.

F=4N

M=0.2kg

a=F/M

a=4/0.2

a=20m/s^2

Answer:

C. amount of charge on the source charge.

Explanation:

Electric field lines can be defined as a graphical representation of the vector field or electric field.

Basically, it was first introduced by Michael Faraday and it is typically a curve drawn to the tangent of a point is in the direction of the net field acting on each point.

The number, or density, of field lines on a source charge indicate the amount of charge on the source charge. Therefore, the density of field lines on a source charge is directly proportional to quantity of charge on the source.

Explain resolution of Force​
Margarita [4]

Answer:

it is defined as splitting up the given force into a number of components, without changing its effects on the body is called resolution of forces. A force is generally resolved along with two mutually perpendicular directions.
