Answer:
c. Joints allow the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge
Explanation:
The reasons why joints are allowed on roadway is to accommodate the contraction and expansion of the road as cars put force on them.
- Most materials used in making roadways are susceptible to expansion and contraction.
- When a measure of force is applied their length either increases or decreases depending on the type of force.
- To accommodate these changes, joints are placed in roadways
Answer:
Contact glasses.
Explanation:
-Anytime you put on a pair of glasses, or see light bend through a glass of water or a prism, this rule is in action.
-In short, Snell's law governs the angle by which electromagnetic radiation such as light refracts, or changes direction, as it passes from one material to another and slows down.
Answer:
Graph for object that is not moving: B
Graph for object that is speeding up: D
Explanation:
A.) In order to represent that an object is not moving, you must either show that there is no velocity (0 m/s) or show a position over time graph that is a horizontal line.
Because the position is the same as time increases, the graph shows that there the object must be at rest, as there is no change in position due to velocity. (Velocity must be 0m/s)
B.) In order to represent an object is speeding up, the position time graph must either be a positive exponential function, the velocity time graph must be a positive, linear line, or the acceleration over time graph must be a positive, horizontal line.
Why is D the correct answer? Because if an object is speeding up, you know that the value of its speed (velocity) is increasing at some rate. And since speeding up refers to positive change, the function of velocity over time graph must be a positive function.
