Vehicle Kinematics: a vehicle sliding sideways into a gravel pit, a vehicle driving down a bank, a vehicle driving up a ramp and a vehicle sliding laterally against a curb.  "sliding laterally against a curb" and "sliding sideways into a gravel pit".

Answer:

We can find the difference using the definition of each concept.

First of all, kinematics refer to a subfield of classical mechanics that only DESCRIBES the motion of a body, point or any object.

Now, vehicular kinematics refer to the study of the motion of a vehicule, only to describe the movement. This subject is studied to test vehicules. Vehicular kinematics and vehicule dynamics are two important fields to analyse in vehicules production, to improvement them in case of accidents. It's important to specify that all these studies are only about the car itself.

On the other hand, we have occupant kinematics which refer to the study of the motion of the occupant who is inside the vehicle. This study is aimed to calculate the movement of the occupant in case of accidents, in order to prevent serious injuries. The best example for this is the air bag, which is an invention to prevent major injuries in case of accidents, this innovation was developed by analysing the motion of the occupant to see where the body goes and which part of the body hits the car inside. The air bag represents a simple but useful innovation that prevents many death per year in car accidents.

Therefore, basically, the difference between these two kinematics is that one studies the vehicle motion and the other one studies the occupant motion, the person inside the vehicle. These studies are important to develop and innovate new things to prevent accidents or serious injuries after an accident.

Aluminum has an atomic number of 13,  so it has 13 protons. In its natural state, it does not have a charge,  so it has an equal amount of electrons, 13. The atomic mass of aluminum is approximately 27. Since protons and neutrons make up that mass, and each of the particles are around 1 atomic mass unit, if there are 13 protons, then there are 27-13 neutrons, or 14 neutrons. So the first answer choice is correct.

What type of simple machine can pinball machine flippers can be explained?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Your pinball machine was built using two kinds of simple machines: a lever and an inclined plane. The lever shot the marble to the top of the box with lots of force. The inclined planes made the marble wind its way down to the bottom.

How does diffraction enable somebody to hear your voice from anywhere in the room?
Vilka [71]
Diffraction means spreading out of waves that has the same wavelength as the size of the gap. Sound waves have high wavelength and so it diffracts\spreads out and enables anyone to hear your voice from anywhere outside the room.

For inside the room, the sound waves doesn't actually diffract. They collide with the air particles, causing a series of compressions and rarefactions which spreads out in the air particles and anyone can hear your voice.

Air is the medium for the sound waves to travel.

If a space ship traveling at 1000 miles per hour enters an area free of gravitational forces, its engine must run at some minimu
valentina_108 [34]
That is false, if there are no forces acting upon it then its momentum will never die off there for unless a gravitational force acted upon it it will travel at 1000 MPH forever
