Answer:

A: used has four times the tensile strength of steel and the timber frame, incorporating

Explanation:

Option A is correct because it conveys the correct message intended by the statement and has no grammatical errors.

Option B is wrong because to say "has four times the tensile strength of steel has" is just grammatically and idiomatically wrong as has is used twice in the sentence.  

Option C is wrong because the statement that has to do with the flexibility of the timber's frame is more like a separate fact and does not fall under the scope of trying to further explain a fact.

Option D is wrong because it has the same problem in Option C. The comma that is placed after "steel" breaks the sentence and hence does not provide a good understanding of why the building can withstand earthquakes.

Option E is grammatically wrong for using does in the sentence "has four times the tensile strength steel does"

What does the SLOPE of a Velocity-Time graph represent? *<br> 1 point
lyudmila [28]

Acceleration

Explanation:

  • In the Velocity-Time graph Velocity is taken in Y-Axis and plotted against Time in X-Axis.
  • The unit of velocity is mentioned in m/s and unit of time is mentioned in seconds.
  • Here we can analyze the instantaneous acceleration and displacement covered.
  • From the slope we can get the body accelerated.
  • From the area under the graph we can get the displacement traveled.
  • We can calculate both average and Instantaneous acceleration from the slope of this graph.

1. A hydraulic lift is to be used to lift a truck masses 5000 kg. If the diameter of the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

a)   F = 4.9 10⁴ N,  b)   F₁ = 122.5 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use that the pressure is transmitted throughout the entire fluid, being the same for the same height

1) pressure is defined by the relation

           P = F / A

to lift the weight of the truck the force of the piston must be equal to the weight of the truck

          ∑F = 0

          F-W = 0

          F = W = mg

          F = 5000 9.8

          F = 4.9 10⁴ N

the area of ​​the pisto is

          A = pi r²

          A = pi d² / 4

          A = pi 1 ^ 2/4

          A = 0.7854 m²

pressure is

          P = 4.9 104 / 0.7854

          P = 3.85 104 Pa

2) Let's find a point with the same height on the two pistons, the pressure is the same

          \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}

where subscript 1 is for the small piston and subscript 2 is for the large piston

          F₁ = \frac{A_1}{A_2} \ F_2

the force applied must be equal to the weight of the truck

          F₁ = ( \frac{d_1}{d_2} )^2\  m g

          F₁ = (0.05 / 1) ² 5000 9.8

          F₁ = 122.5 N

skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 13.5 m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 7.37 m/s. If
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1.7 m/s²

Explanation:

d = length of the ramp = 13.5 m

v₀ = initial speed of the skateboarder = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the skateboarder = 7.37 m/s

a = acceleration

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

7.37² = 0² + 2 a (13.5)

a = 2.01 m/s²

θ = angle of the incline relative to ground = 29.9

a' = Component of acceleration parallel to the ground

Component of acceleration parallel to the ground is given as

a' = a Cosθ

a' = 2.01 Cos29.9

a' = 1.7 m/s²

Science please helppp
Daniel [21]

The red box must way more. Gravitational potential energy is the product of a an objects mass times the acceleration due to gravity (which is constant on earth) times its height. Since the objects are on the same shelf they are at the same height, and since gravitational acceleration is constant as long as we stay on planet earth, then the mass is the only possible thing that could have changed. This means that the red box must weigh more than the blue box.
