You're driving down the highway late one night at 22 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 38 m in front of you. Your reaction tim
sleet_krkn [62]

speed of the car is given on the road

v = 22 m/s

reaction time is given as

t = 0.50 s

now we can find the distance that it will move during this reaction time

d_1 = 22* 0.50 = 11 m

now the deceleration of the car is 10 m/s^2

so the distance that it will move before stop is given by

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0^2 - 22^2 = 2*(-10)*d

d = 24.2 m

so the total distance that it require to stop is given as

d = 24.2 + 11 = 35.2 m

while the deer is standing at distance 38 m

so the car will stop 2.8 m before the position of deer

These four surfaces are opaque; that is they reflect or absorb certain rays of light determine the color
masya89 [10]
In the first figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for green light, which is reflected: so, the surface will appear as green to our eyes, because green is the only color which is reflected by that surface.

Similarly, in the  second figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for blue, and so the surface will appear blue to our eyes.

In the third figure, the surface absorbs all colors, so it will appear black to our eyes (because no colors are reflected, and black=absence of colors).

In the fourth figure, all colors are reflected: this means the surface will appear white to our eyes (white= sum of all colors).

Ashley is flying a plane that has to reach a gradient of 360m/km in order to take off and not crash. Her goal is to travel from
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

She is likely to crash because her flight gradient is lesser than the flight gradient required gradient to avoid crashing

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The required gradient of the plane Ashley is flying needs to reach in order to take off and not crash = 360 m/km

The initial elevation of the plane Ashley is flying = Sea level = 0 m

The goal Ashley intends to make = Elevation of 1000 m at 2.8 km. distance

∴ Ashley's goal = Traveling from sea level to 1000 m at 2.8 km horizontal distance

We have;

The gradient  = Rate of change of elevation/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The gradient of Ashley's flight = (1000 - 0)/(2.8 - 0) = 357.143 m/km

The gradient of Ashley's flight ≈ 357.143 m/km which is lesser than the required 360 m/km in order to take off and not crash, therefore, she will crash.

How do you know the earth is rotating on its axis
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Read below!

Explanation:

You can watch the sun wheel across the sky during the day, and the stars at night. Focus a telescope on any star besides the north star--especially southern stars--and you can watch them drift across your field of view.  

An alternative explanation is that all the stars are painted on (or holes in) some canopy that rotates around the earth. This explanation does not account for the motion of the "wanderers," or planets, as the Greeks called them, or for the path of the moon among the stars.  

As we know the stars are massive bodies of significant and varying distance to the earth, the notion they all swing around us in unison seems highly implausible
