Answer

When 100 cars are on one lane and the faster car of the lane meets the slower car then the rate of the movement of the vehicle is decided by the slowest moving car.

The flow rate of traffic is the rate of the vehicle car a point in the given interval of time.

When the car is moving slowly fast-moving cars will not get the chance to move and they have to follow the slow-moving car.

Hence, it is rightly stated the flow of traffic is decided by slow-moving vehicles.

A 1000 kg car moving a 10 m/s collides with a stationary 2000 kg truck. The two vehicles interlock as a result of the collision.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.

In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.

$(m_{1}*v_{1})+(m_{2}*v_{2})=(m_{1}+m_{2})*v_{3}$

where:

m₁ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the car = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the truck = 2000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the truck = 0 (stationary)

v₃ = velocity of the two vehicles after the collision [m/s].

Now replacing:

$(1000*10)+(2000*0)=(1000+2000)*v_{3}\\v_{3}=3.33[m/s]$

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).

stealth61 [152]

As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer <span>as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.</span>
