Answer:

A. Yes, when another driver makes a mistake, you will have time to react

Explanation:

Yes it is good to make space cushion between two cars because due to some urgency when front vehicle applied brakes then the driver of the rear car will definitely take some time to react.

This reaction time may be between 0.5 s to 0.8 s for different people

so the rear car will move with same speed for above reaction time and it will cover the cushion distance between two cars

If we will not maintain this cushion distance between two cars then we can see that the two cars will collide and that may cause many accidents

so it is correct statement and correct option would be

A. Yes, when another driver makes a mistake, you will have time to react

Arrange the phases of the Moon in order of increasing rising time, from the phase with the earliest rising time at 12:00 a.m. to
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Lets assume the Sun rise time to be 06:00 AM. The rise time of different phases of Moon will be as follows:

12:00 AM : Waning Half

01:00 AM - 05:00 AM : Waning Crescent

06:00 AM : New Moon

07:00 AM - 11:00 AM : Waxing Crescent

12:00 PM :  Waxing Half

01:00 PM - 06:00 PM : Waxing Gibbous

06:00 PM : Full Moon

07:00 PM - 09:00 PM : Waning Gibbous

Explanation:

The Moon is the only celestial object which shows visible changes in its shape and rise and set time over a very short period of time i.e. just one day. One can observe it by observing the Moon daily. One will notice the change easily. This happens because of the geometry of the Sun, Earth and Moon. The Moon doesn't have its own light and shines because of the light of Sun.

At any given time half of the Moon would be illuminated by the Sun but how much of this illuminated portion is facing the Earth decides the phase of the Moon visible from the Earth. Due to this the Moon shows us various phases namely: New, Waxing Crescent, Waxing Half, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Waning Half, Waning Crescent.

Also, the Moon revolves around the Earth completing the orbit in 29.5 Days. Everyday the Moon will change its position in the orbit. Due to this the rising time of Moon shifts by approximately 52 minutes daily. So, the New Moon rises with the Sun and Full Moon rises just after the sunset.

Lets assume the Sun rise time to be 06:00 AM. The rise time of different phases of Moon will be as follows:

12:00 AM : Waning Half

01:00 AM - 05:00 AM : Waning Crescent

06:00 AM : New Moon

07:00 AM - 11:00 AM : Waxing Crescent

12:00 PM :  Waxing Half

01:00 PM - 06:00 PM : Waxing Gibbous

06:00 PM : Full Moon

07:00 PM - 09:00 PM : Waning Gibbous

After you enlarge a map, which one of the following scale remains correct?
9966 [12]

Answer:

None

Explanation:

An scale is the factor by which actual features on ground are enlarged or reduced for representing on a plane. There are different kinds of scales:

  • Verbal scale use of words to represent scale information on the map.  The distance or linear units are used for depicting this scale on the map.  For example: 1 inch = 1 Kilo meter.
  • Fractional scale uses the numbers or values for showing the scale instead of words. As the name says, it is represented using a fraction or ratio.  Example: 1: 10,000 or 1/10,000
  • In large scale more details are shown in a map, however, less area coverage will be shown in a single map as the scale is large and more details are given.  Example: 1:500
  • Small scale is exactly opposite to the large scale, less details are shown as magnification is not enough, however a large amount of area can be shown in a single map.  Example: 1:25,000
  • A graphic scale is a bar that has been calibrated to show map distances. On maps that have been reduced or enlarged the original ratio and written scales are incorrect, since the relationship between map distance and real world distance has been altered, graphic scale is enlarged or reduced to the same extent as the map, this makes it the right option.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

A 4.80 −kg ball is dropped from a height of 15.0 m above one end of a uniform bar that pivots at its center. The bar has mass 7.
Margarita [4]

Answer:

h = 13.3 m

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of ball, mb = 4.80 kg

- The mass of bar, ml = 7.0 kg

- The height from which ball dropped, H = 15.0 m

- The length of bar, L = 6.0 m

- The mass at other end of bar, mo = 5.10 kg

Find:-

The dropped ball sticks to the bar after the collision.How high will the other ball go after the collision?

Solution:-

- Consider the three masses ( 2 balls and bar ) as a system. There are no extra unbalanced forces acting on this system. We can isolate the system and apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum. The axis at the center of the bar:

- The angular momentum for ball dropped before collision ( M1 ):

                                 M1 = mb*vb*(L/2)

Where, vb is the speed of the ball on impact:

- The speed of the ball at the point of collision can be determined by using the principle of conservation of energy:

                                  ΔP.E = ΔK.E

                                  mb*g*H = 0.5*mb*vb^2

                                  vb = √2*g*H

                                  vb = ( 2*9.81*15 ) ^0.5

                                  vb = 17.15517 m/s

- The angular momentum of system before collision is:

                                  M1 = ( 4.80 ) * ( 17.15517 ) * ( 6/2)

                                  M1 = 247.034448 kgm^2 /s

- After collision, the momentum is transferred to the other ball. The momentum after collision is:

                                  M2 = mo*vo*(L/2)

- From principle of conservation of angular momentum the initial and final angular momentum remains the same.

                                 M1 = M2

                                 vo = 247.03448 / (5.10*3)

                                 vo = 16.14604 m/s

- The speed of the other ball after collision is (vo), the maximum height can be determined by using the principle of conservation of energy:

                                  ΔP.E = ΔK.E

                                  mo*g*h = 0.5*mo*vo^2

                                  h = vo^2 / 2*g

                                  h = 16.14604^2 / 2*(9.81)

                                  h = 13.3 m
