Answer

Correct option is B that is Desktop computer

Explanation

Option A

This option is not correct because in a Locomotive train steam, diesel or batteries are used.

Option B

It is Correct option because in desktop a transformer is there which uses AC current. Most of us have desktop and we used AC current to operate it we don't have any other option to operate a desktop except AC current

Option C

This is not correct option because in  a car we used petrol, deisel, gas or  DC batteries.

Option D

Option D is not correct option because to operate portable media player we can use both  alternating current or batteries

Option

This is not correct option because in  flashlight we uses DC batteries

Hope this answer will help you

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Traction

Explanation:

Enter a curve slower than the posted speed if your vehicle has a high center of gravity or if surface Traction is less than ideal.

Traction is an act of drawing or pulling something over a surface specially a road or a track or it also defined as the grip of a tire on road or a wheel on rail. So speed when entering a curve should be slower when the tire has low traction to avoid accident.

Pachacha [2.7K]
This is because AC is easier to transform from a higher voltage to another, lower voltage, using transformers. High voltage means less <span>resistive losses in the power lines during transmission. This is why power is transmitted at many hundreds of thousands of volts and is only transformed into 110V or 220V near the consumers. </span>

A rock is thrown horizontally from a bridge with a velocity of 17.0 m/s. It takes the rock 3.0 s to strike the water below. What
zalisa [80]

Answer:

V= 33.98 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Horizontal speed ,u= 17 m/s

Time taken by rockets to strike the water ,t= 3 s

We know that acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.81 m/s²

There is no any acceleration in the horizontal direction that is why the horizontal veloity will remain constant.

In the vertical direction

vy = uy+ g t

Initial velocity in vertical direction is 0 m/s.

vy= 0+ 9.81 x 3

vy = 29.43 m/s

The resultant velocity

V=\sqrt{v_y^2+u^2}

V=\sqrt{29.43^2+17^2}\ m/s

V= 33.98 m/s
