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 proton traveling to the right enters a region of uniform magnetic field that points into the screen. When the proton enters th
muminat

Answer:

deflected toward bottom of the screen

Explanation:

When entering the region with magnetic field, a magnetic force is exerted on the proton. This force is perpendicular to both the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of the velocity of the proton.

The direction of the force can be determined by using the right-hand rule. We have:

- Index finger: direction of the velocity of the proton --> to the right

- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field --> into the screen

- Thumb: direction of the magnetic force --> toward bottom of the screen

So, the correct answer is

deflected toward bottom of the screen

Half Time At 3:00 the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock point in directions that are 90.0
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

3 : 08 : 10.9

Explanation:

assuming a 12 hour clock

angular velocity of the hour hand is 2π/(3600(12)) rad/s

angular velocity of the minute hand is 2π/3600 rad/s

difference is 2π/3600 - 2π/(3600(12)) = 11(2π/(3600(12)) rad/s

45° = π/4 radians

This angle is covered in a time of

π/4 rad / 22π / (3600(12)) = 900(12) / 22 = 490.909090... s

or about 8 minutes 10.9 s
