Answer:
A drunk driver's car travel 49.13 ft further than a sober driver's car, before it hits the brakes
Explanation:
Distance covered by the car after application of brakes, until it stops can be found by using 3rd equation of motion:
2as = Vf² - Vi²
s = (Vf² - Vi²)/2a
where,
Vf = Final Velocity of Car = 0 mi/h
Vi = Initial Velocity of Car = 50 mi/h
a = deceleration of car
s = distance covered
Vf, Vi and a for both drivers is same as per the question. Therefore, distance covered by both car after application of brakes will also be same.
So, the difference in distance covered occurs before application of brakes during response time. Since, the car is in uniform speed before applying brakes. Therefore, following equation shall be used:
s = vt
FOR SOBER DRIVER:
v = (50 mi/h)(1 h/ 3600 s)(5280 ft/mi) = 73.33 ft/s
t = 0.33 s
s = s₁
Therefore,
s₁ = (73.33 ft/s)(0.33 s)
s₁ = 24.2 ft
FOR DRUNK DRIVER:
v = (50 mi/h)(1 h/ 3600 s)(5280 ft/mi) = 73.33 ft/s
t = 1 s
s = s₂
Therefore,
s₂ = (73.33 ft/s)(1 s)
s₂ = 73.33 ft
Now, the distance traveled by drunk driver's car further than sober driver's car is given by:
ΔS = s₂ - s₁
ΔS = 73.33 ft - 24.2 ft
<u>ΔS = 49.13 ft</u>
The answer is C. that liquids and gases both take the shape of their container.
Think of it this way, if you take an ice cube and put it in your glass, it will stay in its shape and stay that way until it melts. But if you put liquid or a gas into a glass, it will take the shape of the glass that it is put into.
O2 refers to two oxygen atoms bonded together, while 2 O refers to two oxygen atoms that are not bonded to each other. They both have two oxygen atoms, but in O2, the oxygen atoms are bonded, while in 2O, the atoms are not.
