Answer:

a_y = 4.9\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given,

Width of rectangular tank, b = 1 m

Length of the tank, l = 2 m

height of the tank, d = 1.5 m

Depth of gasoline on the tank, h = 1 m

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=-\dfrac{1.5-1}{1}

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=-0.5

The differential form with the acceleration

\dfrac{dz}{dy}=\dfrac{-a_y}{a_z + g}

-0.5=-\dfrac{a_y}{a_z + g}

acceleration in z-direction = 0 m/s²

g = 9.8 m/s²

a_y is the horizontal acceleration of the gasoline.

0.5=\dfrac{a_y}{0 + 9.8}

a_y = 9.8\times 0.5

a_y = 4.9\ m/s^2

Hence, Horizontal acceleration of the gasoline before gasoline would spill is equal to 4.9 m/s²

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

If it is moving 34 m/s it will take 100 seconds, or 1:40 to reach 3400 meters.

Explanation:

I found this answer by dividing 3400 by 34 and converting seconds to minutes

Considering how the parts of a system work together and affect one another, other systems, and the environment is called _______
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Hi

before I answer a question I think very deeply and try my best, hope it helps...

As you know there are many different types of systems. For example, The solar system, galaxies, quantum systems, atoms, molecules, orchestras, nervous system, etc, things you may not have even considered a system. To get to the basis of a system we must first understand what a system is then we will show some examples. A system is a group of Parts (parts could mean anything even dark energy and dark matter) that work together to accomplish something. For example, your body has many many trillions of cells that all try to accomplish the functions of humans which include thinking, moving, breathing, circulation, etc. Cells in turn are a system that have counterparts called organelles that accomplish harvesting energy, making new proteins, getting rid of waste, and so on. These are some systems which we highly dependent upon.

Well i hope it helped

You calculate the density of a block of aluminum to be 2.68 g/cm3. You look up the density of a block of aluminum at room temper
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Systematic errors.

Explanation:

The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.

Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.
