There's not enough information to find an answer.
I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude. This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.
Answer:
i) 0.9504
ii) 0.0452
Explanation:
Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96
reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99
So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504
At low speed
case: A works and B does not
= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096
case2 : B works and A does not
= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396
Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492
1 and A
2 and B
3 and D
4 and C
It will travel slowest through gases.
