The correct answer is C. A PFD takes some time to fit properly especially in an emergency.

Explanation:

The purpose of a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) such as a life jacket is to keep people floating to prevent drowning. Additionally, its effectiveness depends on whether the Personal Floating Device was fitted properly. Because of this, if an activity involves being in or around water, it is important to wear a Personal Flotation Device and to fit this properly before approaching the water because it is difficult to adjust the device during an emergency. Thus, it is important to wear a PFD in or around water because this takes some time to fit properly (Option C.)

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer : Drag force = 1.3 Ib

Explanation:

we have to represent the dimensions of the drag force in terms of FLT

i.e : D = f( <em>d,v,p,u </em>) represented in terms of FLT

D = F , V = LT^-1, d = L, p = FL^-4 T^2

u = FL^-2 T, Number of independent terms = 5

Answer:

$200$ Amperes WB =<em> </em> $200J$

Explanation:

$200$ Amperes will flow back to the negative terminal because both the positive terminal and negative terminal contain the equivalent amount of current that will flow and it works in the starter motor.
