We could determine the acceleration using this formula

Given from the question v₀ = 23 m/s, v₁ = 0 (the car stops), t = 5 s
plug in the numbers



a = -4.6
The acceleration is -4.6 m/s²
Answer: (A) 3.0=A
Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the OHM law, given by: V=R*I
Besides, we have to consider the resitance equivalent for a parallel connection. This is given by:
1/Re=1/R1+1/R2
If we connect the same resistance, the equivalent resistance is R/2.
Initlally the current is 1.5 A when one resistance is connected to the batttery. When a second resistance with the same value is connected in parallel to the battery, we have V=Re*Ifinal= (R/2)*Ifinal
also we know that V=R*Iinitial so Iinitial=V/R
then Ifinal= 2*V/R=2*Iinitial
The "D) People perceive objects as a whole" statement best describes an abductive reasoning. The abductive reasoning often has incomplete information as the base of its reasoning and the conclusion for this type of reasoning is not absolute. There will always be additional pieces of evidence and factors that could change the conclusion of this reasoning. Therefore<span> D statement is the most suitable answer.</span>
