The answer is B
because if you compare a regular road and ice... ice is smoother and therefore has less friction

B) because a road is usually covered in rocks which increases the friction, but since its now covered in ice which is usually a smooth surface is has less friction leading to the car sliding. Also if the top of the ice has melted it may hav left behind water and hitch is a lubricant and reduces friction

Marrrta [24]

Explanation:

The theory of speciation confirms what happens with fireflies, only fireflies that are part of the same species can reproduce among themselves, which means that fireflies that use pheromones as mating signals will attract fireflies that use that same form or mechanism of reproduction.

Some mechanisms that allow this type of differentiation or speciation to occur are: seasonal or geographic isolation and sexual isolation due to behavior or conduct.

Speciation allows the formation of new populations of organisms that share the same physiological and genetic characteristics. Therefore, the adult fireflies that shine as a mating signal are possibly found in the same geographical position and their physiological and genetic characteristics are compatible with those of his own species.

Starting from rest, a dragster travels a straight 1/4 mi racetrack in 7.10 s with constant acceleration. What is its velocity wh
Gennadij [26K]

268.6567 mph  is its velocity when it crosses the finish line

d=(v1+v2 /2) x t

.25=(0+v2 /2) x 6.7/3600 hours

900=v2/2 x 6.7

v2=268.6567 mph as the speed with which the dragster crosses the finish

<h3>When acceleration is not zero, can speed remain constant?</h3>

The answer is that an accelerated motion can have a constant speed. Consider a particle travelling uniformly around a circle; it experiences acceleration since the motion's direction is changing, but it maintains a constant speed along the tangential axis throughout the motion.

Acceleration is the frequency of a change in velocity. Acceleration is a vector with magnitude and direction, much as velocity. For instance, if a car is moving in a straight path and speeding up, it is said to have forward (positive) acceleration, and if it is slowing down, it is said to have backward (negative) acceleration.

A wave has a wavelength of 5m and frequency of 5 Hz. What is the speed of the wave?​
Anna71 [15]
If you multiply m (the unit for wavelength) with 1s (the unit for frequency), you will get m/s, the unit for speed. Now multiply! 25 m/s is your final answer!

If the magnitude of the electric field in air exceeds roughly 3 ✕ 106 N/C, the air breaks down and a spark forms. For a two-disk
Westkost [7]

Answer:

1.843 x 10^-5 C  

Explanation:

<u><em>Givens:   </em></u>

It is given that the air starts ionizing when the electric field in the air exceeds a magnitude of 3 x 10^6 N/C, which means that the max electric field can stand without forming a spark is 3 x 10^6 N/C.  

Also it is given that the radius of the disk is 50 cm, it is required to find out the max amount of charge that the disk can hold without forming spark, which means the charge that would produce the max magnitude of the electric field that air can stand without forming spark, and since we know that the electric field in between 2 disk "Capacitor" is given by the following equation  

E = (Q/A)/∈o                                (1)

Where,

Q: total charge on the disk.

A: the area of the disk.  

<u><em>Calculations:  </em></u>

We want to find the quantity of charge on the disk that would produce an electric field of 3 x 10^6 N/C, knowing the radius of the disk we can find the cross-section of the disk, thus substituting in equation (1) we find the maximum quantity of charge the disk can hold  

Q = EA∈o

   = (3 x 10^6) x (π*0.50) x (8.85 x 10^-12)  

  = 1.843 x 10^-5 C  

note:

calculations maybe wrong but method is correct
