Answer:

4 seconds - Not practical

Explanation:

Length of the truck = 50'

Initial distance behind the truck = 30'

Finish Pass = 50' ahead of truck ,

Pass at =  60mph -- about 3.375 seconds.

- 70mph your closing speed is 130mph.  

If you were less than a 1/4 mile away when you tried the pass you will be dead.

That would be a quick pass.  You will probably want a mile beyond the oncoming traffic.

According to Lenz's law, an induced current in the direction depicted in the picture would be created when: a. An external downw
LenKa [72]

Answer:

C. An external downward field is created or an external downward field is removed

Explanation:

As we can see that from the attached figure that the induced current would be counter clockwise. So the field occur because of induced current i.e. out of page. This represent that the current is induced in order to rise the flux out of the direction of the page

Therefore because of the external field, the field out of page & flux would be reducing or the external upward field is eliminated

So option C is correct

a car advertisement states that a certain car can accelerate from rest to 70km/h in 7 seconds. find the cars acceleration
ELEN [110]
<span>a = (v2 - v1)/t= acceleration formula

a = (70 - 0)/7
a = 10 km/hr/sec
-----
It's better to use as few units as possible.
10 km/hr = 10 km*1000 m/km/(1 hr*3600 sec/hr) = 25/9 m/sec
a= 25/9 m/sec/se</span>

What kind of change is it when a liquid turns into a gas by boiling????????????????????
elixir [45]
It is called vaporization. Vaporization is the phase transition from a liquid to a gas by means of evaporation or boiling. Evaporation occurs at temps below the boiling point and occurs on the liquids surface. Boiling is a rapid vaporization that occurs above the boiling temp and below or at the liquids surface.

The two major parts of the optical telescope
nydimaria [60]
The "objective" (lens or mirror) is the major major major part of
the optical telescope.  It's really the only part you need in order
to make a telescope (besides something to hold the objective).
You can put a piece of film or a CCD right at the focal point of
the objective lens or mirror and capture 'images' (pictures) there.

If you want to use the telescope for looking through and seeing stuff
with your eye, then you need the other major part ... the eyepiece lens.

A brick falls from a wall to the ground 3.42 m below. How much time will it take to
ddd [48]

Answer:

The time taken by the brick to hit the ground, t = 0.84 s

Explanation:

Given that,

A brick falls from a height, h = 3.42 m

The initial velocity of the brick is zero.

Since the brick is under free-falling. The time equation of a free-falling body when the displacement is given is

                                     t = \sqrt{2h/g}

where,

                                 h - height from surface in meters

                                 g - acceleration due to gravity

on substituting the values in the above equation,

                                 t =  \sqrt{2X3.14/9.8}

                                   = 0.84 s

Hence, time taken by the brick to hit the ground is t = 0.84 s
