Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.

How do you think car makers can design cars to limit cell phone distractions?

Dafna11 [192]

I have two (2) brilliant ideas:

1). Inside the metal that the body of the car is made of, and also between the two sheets of glass that the windows are made of, install a thin layer of material that absorbs RF (radio-wave) energy . . . like the material in the glass window of your microwave oven. Then, no radio waves from the cellular base station can get INTO the car, and no radio waves from your phone can get OUT of the car. The phone can't make a connection to the cellular network, you can't make or receive calls, and you can't connect to Instagram or Brainly, so you might as well just turn it off and save your battery until next time you're outside your car.

2). Somewhere inside the car, like under the dash or in the glove box, install a teeny tiny radio receiver that can recognize the signals coming OUT of your phone. Connect it to the car's electrical system so that when it hears signals from phones inside the car, it it shuts down the car's motor so you can't start or drive. The car only works when phones inside the car are either turned off or in Airplane Mode.

My ideas are so brilliant that I really should patent them, or copyright them, or whatever you do so that other people have to pay you to use your idea. But if you want to use them, that's OK. Just go ahead. I won't mind.

This same car gets pulled over for speeding, and goes from 68 m/s to 0 m/s in 14

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

the acceleration of the car is -4.9m/s2.

the direction is opposite to the actual direction, since the acceleration is negative.

A bullet is fired straight up from a gun with a

melamori03 [73]

Answer: 815.51 m

Explanation:

This situation is related to projectile motion or parabolic motion, in which the initial velocity of the bullet has only y-component, since it was fired straight up. In addition, we are dealing with constant acceleration (due gravity), therefore the following equations will be useful to solve this problem:

$V=V_{o}+gt$ (1)

$V^{2}=V_{o}^{2}+2gy$ (2)

Where:

$V$ is the final velocity of the bullet

$V_{o}=152 m/s$ is the initial velocity of the bullet

$g=-9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity, always directed downwards

$t=6.9 s$ is the time

$y$ is the vertical position of the bullet at $t=6.9 s$

Let's begin by finding $V$ from (1):

$V=152 m/s-9.8 m/s^{2}(6.9 s)$ (3)

$V=84.38 m/s$ (4)

Now we have to substitute (4) in (2):

$(84.38 m/s)^{2}=(152 m/s)^{2}-2(9.8 m/s^{2})y$ (5)

Isolating $y$ :

$y=815.511 m$ This is the displacement of the bullet after 6.9 s

Directions: Read each statement and determine if it is describing speed or

baherus [9]

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

$Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

1. Speed: Jackson ran 5k in 24 minutes.

2. Velocity: A storm is travelling 25 km/hour eastward.

3. Speed: John walked 420 m in 17.5 seconds.

4. Velocity: Zart moved the desk 34 cm to the left.

5. Speed: A hurricane travels 360 km in 15 hours.

6. Speed: Meredith runs 400 meters in 50 seconds.

7. Velocity: Stephen Jay swims 110 m towards the shore in 72 seconds.

8. Velocity: Vince throws a baseball 38 m from third base to first base in 1.7 seconds.
