Answer:

c. Slowly slide down the incline and then stop.

Explanation:

The first block slides down a rough incline since friction forces are strong enough to countereffect the effects of gravity forces and friction force is directly proportional to mass. Hence, a greater mass means higher friction forces. Net acceleration is zero.

The smaller block has a greater mass, it slides down the incline and decelerates before stopping. Net acceleration is negative.  

The correct answer is c.

A migrating robin flies due north with a speed of 12 m/s relative to the air. The air moves due east with a speed of 6.8 m/s rel
Svetach [21]

I'm assuming the question is what is the robin's speed relative to to the ground...

Create an equation that describes its relative motion.

rVg = rVa + aVg


Substitute values.

rVg = 12 m/s [N] + 6.8 m/s [E]


Use vector addition.

| rVg | = √ | rVa |² + | aVg |²

| rVg | = √ 144 m²/s² + 46.24 m²/s²

| rVg | = √ 19<u>0</u>.24 m²/s²

| rVg | = 1<u>3</u>.78 m/s


Find direction.

tanФ = aVg / rVa

tanФ = 6.8 m/s / 12 m/s

Ф = 29°


Therefore, the velocity of the robin relative to the ground is 14 m/s [N29°E]

How can students earn a GED
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

How Can You Earn Your GED?

  • You must be at least 16 years old to take the GED Test, and you must not be enrolled in high school. ...
  • You must pass all four subject tests in the GED battery of tests, which means scoring at least a 145 on each test (New Jersey requires a score of at least 150 to pass).

>Rules

You must be at least 16 years old to take the GED Test, and you must not be enrolled in high school. You should also meet state eligibility requirements for the amount of time you've been out of high school. In some states, you have to be out of high school for at least 60 consecutive days before you're allowed to take the test. Contact the program administrator in your state for more details.

You must pass all four subject tests in the GED battery of tests, which means scoring at least a 145 on each test (New Jersey requires a score of at least 150 to pass). Scores range from 100 to 200 on the 2014 version). A score of 165 on each test is the benchmark for college and career readiness, and you will receive an Honors distinction if you reach this score. The four tests take seven and a half hours total and are administered by computer. You don't have to take them all on the same day, but some states enforce specific time frames for completing the tests. Most questions are multiple choice, although there is also a mix of fill-in-the-blank, drag and drop, and select-an-area questions, as well as an essay question on the Reasoning Through Language Arts section.

If you don't pass a test the first time around, you can retake it, although different states have different requirements for people who need to retake GED tests (such as additional fees or proof of attending a preparation class). Testing accommodations are available for those with disabilities; you can sign up for them through your online account after you register. You usually have to pay to sign up for the tests, but the cost varies from state to state. After you take each test, you will receive your scores within 24 hours. Here are some more details about the score report.

A car and a lorry are about to collide. When they collide the two vehicles become tightly locked together. The lorry is going at
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The speed of the vehicles immediately after the collision is 5.84 m/s.

Explanation:

The speed of the vehicles after the collision can be found by conservation of linear momentum:

p_{i} = p_{f}

m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}} = m_{1}v_{1_{f}} + m_{2}v_{2_{f}}

Where:

m₁: is the mass of the car = 0.5 ton = 500 kg

m₂: is the mass of the lorry = 9.5 ton = 9500 kg

v_{1_{i}}: is the initial speed of the car = 40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

v_{2_{i}}: is the initial speed of the lorry = 20 km/h = 5.56 m/s

v_{1_{f}}: is the final speed of the car =?

v_{2_{f}}: is the final speed of the lorry =?    

Since the two vehicles become tightly locked together after the collision v_{1_{f}} = v_{2_{f}}:

m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}} = v(m_{1} + m_{2})

v = \frac{m_{1}v_{1_{i}} + m_{2}v_{2_{i}}}{m_{1} + m_{2}} = \frac{500 kg*11.11 m/s + 9500 kg*5.56 m/s}{500 kg + 9500 kg} = 5.84 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the vehicles immediately after the collision is 5.84 m/s.

I hope it helps you!
