Answer:

Your answer here is D

Explanation:

Slowly pressing your breaks will help ensure you are not hit by the other car. If they hit you its their fault. Hope this helps :)!

Answer:

<h2>D. Slowly and steadily apply your breaks.</h2>

Explanation:

When a person is being tailgated by another vehicle there's a risk of accident, due to the difference of speeds. When someone is being tailgated by another vehicle, it's because they vehicle doesn't work, cannot move by itself, so one vehicle impulse another.

To avoid any accident, the vehicle that's being tailgated must apply breaks often and slowly to try to maintain the same constant distance and speed than the other vehicle. This constant distance is what avoid accidents.

Therefore, the right answer is D.

A circular saw blade with radius 0.175 m starts from rest and turns in a vertical plane with a constant angular acceleration of
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

x = 11.23  m

Explanation:

For this interesting exercise, we must use angular kinematics, linear kinematics and the relationship between angular and linear quantities.

Let's reduce to SI system units

    θ = 155 rev (2pi rad / rev) = 310π rad

    α = 2.00rev / s2 (2pi rad / 1 rev) = 4π rad / s²

Let's look for the angular velocity at the time the piece is released, with starting from rest the initial angular velocity is zero (wo = 0)

    w² = w₀² + 2 α θ  

    w =√ 2 α θ

    w = √(2 4pi 310pi)

    w = 156.45  rad / s

The relationship between angular and linear velocity

    v = w r

    v = 156.45  0.175

    v = 27.38 m / s

In this part we have the linear speed and the height that it travels to reach the floor, so with the projectile launch equations we can find the time it takes to arrive

    y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

As it leaves the highest point its speed is horizontal

   y = 0 - ½ g t²

   t = √ (-2y / g)

   t = √ (-2 (-0.820) /9.8)

   t = 0.41 s

With this time we calculate the horizontal distance, because the constant horizontal speed

   x = vox t

   x = 27.38 0.41

   x = 11.23  m

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

4. Electrons move from higher energy states to lower energy states.

Explanation:

When electrons fall from a higher (excited) energy state to a lower energy state, it loses/gives out energy.

This energy is given out by the emission of photons (quanta of light) by the electron.

A water pump pumps 3 kg of water every second from the bottom of a well to the top of the well 50 m above if the pump used 2000
vesna_86 [32]

watts = work per second.

work is mgh = 3x10x50=1500

watts out = 1500

Watts used = 2000

eff=1500/2000=75%
