Answer: Gas pedal

Explanation: Gas pedal is also known as accelerator pedal.

It is a trigger in an automobile which accelerates the process of fuel combustion in the engine. Automobiles consist of an Internal Combustion engine i.e. the fuel burns inside a closed chamber to generate the energy.

When the gas pedal is triggered the supply of the fuel to the engine increases and the rate of fuel combustion also increases which in turn produces greater power. And we know that power is the rate of doing work or the rate of energy transfer which causes the acceleration in the vehicle.

All of the controls can cause acceleration. The gas pedal and brake cause the car to change speed and the steering wheel can cause a change in velocity by changing its direction which is also acceleration.

A projectile is shot from the edge of a cliff above the ground level with initial velocity of at an angle with the horizontal. (
Xelga [282]

Answer:

t = √2y/g

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch exercise

a) The vertical velocity in the initial instants (v_{oy} = 0) zero, so let's use the equation

     y =v_{oy} t -1/2 g t²

     y= - ½ g t²

     t = √2y/g

b) Let's use this time and the horizontal displacement equation, because the constant horizontal velocity

     x = vox t

     x = v₀ₓ √2y/g

c) Speeds before touching the ground

     vₓ = vox = constant

     v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

     v_{y} = 0 - g √2y/g

    v_{y}  = - √2gy

    tan θ = Vy / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

    θ = tan⁻¹ (√2gy / vox)

d) The projectile is higher than the cliff because it is a horizontal launch

Which characeristic makes omasis different from diffusion.
Ksju [112]
 <span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now. 
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed] 
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>

explain how the composition of a star that will form a billon years in the future will differ the composition of our sun.
Grace [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Basically the star slowly burns its hydrogen into Helium. Depending on the mass, the star will have a turbulent core where the Helium will be fully mixed or a radiative core where the helium will settle at the centre (remember it's heavier than Hydrogen). The second case is what happens in the Sun.
