Answer:

Neither A nor B.

Explanation:

If a vehicle is considered to be a rigid body, it does not matter which wheels have the motive force applied. The rigidity of the body transmits the force throughout and moves the vehicle the same, regardless.

___

Many factors go into the design of a vehicle and its power train. The amount of force that can bee applied by the tires without spinning is a function of the friction, which is related to the weight on the wheels. Front-engine vehicles tend to have more weight on the front wheels, so driving those wheels makes sense. Other vehicles may have more weight on the rear wheels (due to the weight of a trailer, for example), so rear-wheel drive may make more sense. These choices are sensible because they offer better traction, not because pulling or pushing is "easier"—whatever that means.

If the body is not rigid, it may be easier to pull it than push it. In English, a difficult task is sometimes compared to "pushing a rope uphill." It is difficult because the rope is not a rigid body, so the applied force tends to change its shape, rather than move it in the desired direction.

Answer:

B. Both A and B

Explanation:

We have to remember that is is easier to pull than to push, since FWD is pulling the car, that normally carries out most of the weight behind the front wheels it would be easier its work, now the other technitian says that is much harder to push than to pull, which is basically true so they are both right and sayinf two different angles of the same hypothesis.

The following income statement was produced when volume of sales was at 400 units. Sales Revenue $ 1,600 Variable Cost 700 Contr
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

If volume reaches 500 units, net income will be: $715

Explanation:

When  volume of sales was at 400 units:

Selling price per unit = Sales Revenue/400 = $1,600/400 = $4

Variable Cost per unit = Variable Cost/400 = $700/400 = $1.75

If volume reaches 500 units:

Total Sales Revenue = $4 x 500 = $2,000

Variable Cost = $1.75 x 500 = $875

Fixed Cost will not change = $410

Net income = Total Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost = $2,000 - $875 - $410 = $715

Most people who start small businesses are aware of the high failure rate and the reasons for it. Why, then, do some take no ste
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

When someone starts their own business, they do it because they firmly believe that they will succeed. Most of the time they are not thinking about what will happen if things do not work as planned. I believe that people that are afraid and believe that the possibility of failure is large, will never start their own business. Entrepreneurship is something that not everyone can do, and it takes a lot of guts to do it.
