5 0

The best answer is b - span.

A span is the distance between two bridge supports The supports may be towers, columns, or even the wall of a canyon.

There are many kinds of bridges  but they all fall into three types namely beam, arch and suspension. The major difference between these three kinds of bridges is the distance that each can cross in  a single span.

For example, a modern beam bridge is likely to span a distance of 200 feet, a modern arch can span 800 or 1000feet,  and a modern suspension bridge can span up to 7000ft.

Which is true regarding AC current? The electrons move back and forth. The +/- polarity is constant. It is common in portable de
andre [41]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

AC current stands for alternating current. In an alternating current there is periodically reverse movement of current.

This means electrons move in one direction for a certain time and then they reverse their movement for the same time period and it continues in the back and forth position.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons move back and forth is true regarding AC current.

3. Which one of these has the most inertia?
Arte-miy333 [17]

b. A Boeing 747 airplane

Explanation:

The Boeing 747 airplane will have the most inertia of all. Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or uniform motion.

  • Newton's first law of motion is also regarded as the law of inertia.
  • It states that "an object will remain at rest or uniform motion motion unless acted upon by an external force".
  • A body that has a large mass will be more resistant to any external force that acts on it.
  • The Boeing 747 has the most mass of all and will have the most inertia.

A plane mirror of circular shape with radius r=20cm is fixed to the ceiling. A bulb is to be placed on the axis of the mirror. A
KIM [24]

Answer:

0.75 m

Explanation:

Let's call the distance between the bulb and the mirror x.

The bulb and the length of the mirror form a triangle.  The mirror and the illuminated area on the floor form a trapezoid.  If we extend the lines from the mirror edge to the reflected image of the bulb, we turn that trapezoid into a large triangle.  This triangle and the small triangle are similar.  So we can say:

x / 0.4 = (3 + x) / 2

Solving for x:

2x = 0.4 (3 + x)

2x = 1.2 + 0.4 x

1.6 x = 1.2

x = 0.75

So the bulb should located no more than 0.75 m from the mirror.
