<span>Ocean water conducts electrical current because it contains electrolytes. Electrolytes are good conductors of electricity, and are naturally present in appropriate amounts in bodies of water. However, pure water (without electrolytes or metals) is not a conductor of electricity. </span>
Answer:
4.36 seconds
Explanation:
According to the question;
- Force is 550 N
- Mass of the car is 1200 kg
- Velocity of the car is 2.0 m/s
We are needed to find the time the car must the tow track pull the car.
- From Newton's second law of motion;
- Impulsive force, F = Mv÷t , where m is the mass, v is the velocity and t is the time.
Rearranging the formula;
t = mv ÷ F
Thus;
Time = (1200 kg × 2.0 m/s²) ÷ 550 N
= 4.36 seconds
Thus, the time needed to pull the car is 4.36 seconds
