Two technicians are discussing a fuel gauge on a General Motors vehicle. Technician A says that if the ground wire's connection

to the fuel tank sending unit becomes rusty or corroded, the fuel gauge will read lower than normal. Technician B says that if the power lead to the fuel tank sending unit is disconnected from the tank unit and grounded (ignition on), the fuel gauge should go to empty. Which technician is correct?
a. Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both Technicians A and B
d. Neither Technician A nor B

Answer:

b. Technician B only

Explanation:

There is a float connected to the variable resistor in a fuel tank unit. The resistance of the variable resistor also changes as the fuel level changes. The tank unit's resistance changes, the dash mount gauge also changes and available on driver's display.  

If the tank transmitter is disconnected, the operation will not take place and the resistance change will not be transmitted to the dash unit. The needle will therefore remain the empty one at all times.Even after being rusty, the ground wire connection to the fuel tank will be able to conduct. Hence Technician B   is correct and Technician A is incorrect.

What force in Newton is required to accelerate a car starting from rest to 20 m/s in 15 seconds if the mass of the car is 2500 k
Lyrx [107]

We will solve this question using the second law of motion which states that force is directly equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

\sf \: F=ma

Where,

  • F is force
  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

In our case,

  • F = ?
  • m = 2500 kg
  • a = 20m/s

\tt \: F_{net}  = 2500 \times 20 \\   \tt= 50000

<em>Thus, The force of 50000 Newton is required to accelerate a car of 2500 kg...~</em>

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis
mixer [17]

Answer:

b. passes through the principal focal point.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image. This type of lens is usually thin at the lower and upper edges and thick across the middle.

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis passes through the principal focal point.

A soccer field is viewed from above, while a ball is kicked eastward with an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. The ball experiences a c
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

the ball travelled approximately 60 m towards north before stopping

Explanation:

 Given the data in the question;

First course : a_{x} = 0.75 m/s², d_{x} = 20 m, u_{x} = 10 m/s

now, form the third equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

we substitute

v_{x}² = (10)² + (2 × 0.75 × 20)

v_{x}² = 100 + 30

v_{x}² = 130

v_{x} = √130

v_{x} = 11.4 m/s

for the Second Course:

u_{y} =  11.4 m/s,  a_{y} = -1.15 m/s²,  v_{y} = 0

Also, form the third equation of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

we substitute

0² = (11.4)² + (2 × (-1.15) ×  d_{y} )

0 = 129.96 - 2.3d_{y}

2.3d_{y}  = 129.96

d_{y} = 129.96 / 2.3

d_{y} = 56.5 m

so;

|d| = √( d_{x}² + d_{y}² )

we substitute

|d| = √( (20)² + (56.5)² )

|d| = √( 400 + 3192.25 )

|d| = √( 3592.25 )

|d| = 59.9 m ≈ 60 m

Therefore, the ball travelled approximately 60 m towards north before stopping

Two streams merge to form a river. One stream has a width of 8.4 m, depth of 3.5 m, and current speed of 2.2 m/s. The other stre
hoa [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall solve this problem on the basis of pinciple that water is incompressible so volume of flow will be equal at every point .

rate of volume flow of one stream

= cross sectional area x velocity

= 8.4 x 3.5 x 2.2 = 64.68 m³ /s

rate of volume flow of other stream

= 6.6 x 3.6 x 2.7

= 64.15 m³ /s

rate of volume flow of rive , if d be its depth

= 11.2 x d x 2.8

= 31.36 d

volume flow of river = Total of volume flow rate of two streams

31.36 d  = 64.15 + 64.68

31.36 d  = 128.83

d = 4.10 m /s .
