SHOULD YOU TRY TO KEEP A "SPACE CUSHION" AROUND YOUR VEHICLE WHENEVER POSSIBLE? A. Yes, when another driver makes a mistake, you

will have time to react B. No, space cushions are unnecessary. They take up valuable space on the freeway C. No, someone may try to crowd in front of you D. Yes, but only on city streets

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

Current is the movement of negative charges called protons.<br> A. True<br> B. False
Kruka [31]

Answer: Option B) False

Explanation:

Current is the movement of negative charges called electrons. Protons, neutrons and electrons are the three subatomic particles that make up particles of the conductors that transmit current, however electrons are negatively charged and their gain or loss determines movement of electric current.

Thus, the statement is false

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours. What is the earth's angular speed? What is the speed of a point
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

a) w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

b) v1 = 463.1 m/s

c) v1 = 440.433 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The radius of the earth,  R = 6.37 * 10 ^6 m

- The time period for 1 revolution T = 24 hrs

Find:

What is the earth's angular speed?

What is the speed of a point on the equator?

What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 1/5 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator?

Solution:

- The angular speed w of the earth can be related with the Time period T of the earth revolution by:

                                  w = 2π / T

                                  w = 2π / 24*3600

                                  w = 7.27 * 10^-5 rad/s

- The speed of the point on the equator v1 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                                 v1 = R*w

                                 v1 = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                                 v1 = 463.1 m/s

- The angle θ subtended by a point on earth's surface 1/5 th between the equator and the pole wrt equator is.

                                 π/2  ........... s

                                 x     ............ 1/5 s

                                 x = π/2*5 = 18°    

- The radius of the earth R' at point where θ = 18° from the equator is:

                                R' = R*cos(18)

                                R' = (6.37 * 10 ^6)*cos(18)

                                R' = 6058230.0088 m

- The speed of the point where θ = 18° from the equator v2 can be determined from the linear and rotational motion kinematic relation.

                              v2 = R'*w

                              v2 = (6058230.0088)*(7.27 * 10^-5)

                              v2 = 440.433 m/s

When the heat source is removed from a fluid, convection currents in the fluid will eventually ____________then stop.
Blizzard [7]

When the heat source is removed from a fluid, convection currents in the fluid will eventually distribute heat uniformly throughout the fluid.  When all of the fluid is at the same temperature, convection currents will stop.

Two angles are supplementary. The first angle measures 40°. What is the measurement of the second angle?
e-lub [12.9K]

Supplementary angles add up to 180°. 
If one is 40°, then the other is  (180° - 40°)  =  140° .

None of those choices describes a plane. 
Choice 'C' is the only example of a plane.
