Answer:

From lowest to highest acceleration:

3rd train

2nd train

1st train

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object can be found by using Newton's second law:

where

a is the acceleration

F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

We notice that for equal values of the forces F, the acceleration a is inversely proportional to the mass, m. Therefore, greater mass means lower acceleration, and viceversa.

So, the train with lowest acceleration is the one with largest mass, i.e. the 3rd train consisting of 50 equally loaded freight cars. Then, the 2nd train has larger acceleration, since it consists of 50 empty freight cars (so its mass is smaller). Finally, the 1st train (a single empty car) is the one with largest acceleration, since it is the train with smallest mass.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

a) t = 4.16 s

b) x = 141.51 m

Explanation:

Given

v = 21.5 m/s

x0 = 52.0 m

a = 6.0 m/s²

a) Motorcycle

x = v0*t + (a*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + (6*t²/2)

x = 21.5t + 3t²   <em>(I)</em>

Car

x = x0 + v0*t

x = 52 + 21.5t  <em>(II)</em>

<em />

then we can apply <em>I = II</em>

21.5t + 3t² = 52 + 21.5t

⇒ 3t² = 52

⇒ t = 4.16 s

b) We can use <em>I</em> or <em>II</em>, then

x = 52 + 21.5*(4.16)

⇒ x = 141.51 m

Answer:

Roles and responsibilities

Explanation:

Definition of safety plan:

"A Safety Plan is a written document that describes the process for identifying the physical and health hazards that could harm workers, <em>procedures to prevent accidents</em>, and steps to take when accidents occur. Written safety plans can be comprehensive, such as an injury and illness prevention program, or they can be specific to a particular activity, hazard, or piece of equipment. The written safety plan is your blueprint for keeping workers safe."

Alternative definition

"What is an OSHA Safety Plan? An OSHA Safety Plan is a written plan that describes the potential hazards in the workplace, <u><em>and the company policies</em></u>, controls, and <u><em>work practices</em></u> used to minimize those hazards."

elements of a safety plan:

Basic Safety Plan Elements

Policy or goals statement

<u><em>List of responsible persons</em></u>

Hazard identification

<em>Hazard controls and safe practices</em>

<em>Emergency and accident response</em>

Employee training and communication

<em>Recordkeeping</em>

I say roles and responsibilities because it makes sense that if it's your responsibility and possibly something that could be dangerous -- hence a safety plan --  you would have to sign it before working. I hope this helps!

Why are not all<br>materials conductive<br>to electricity​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

In conductive materials, the outer electrons in each atom can easily come or go, and are called free electrons. In insulating materials, the outer electrons are not so free to move. All metals are electrically conductive.
