A motorist traveling with a constant speed of 15 m/s (about 34 mi/h) passes a school-crossing corner, where the speed limit is 0

m/s (about 22 mi/h). Just as the motorist passes, a police officer on a motorcycle stopped at the comer starts off in pursuit with constant acceleration of 3.0 m/S2. (a) How much time elapses before the officer catches up with the motorist? (b) What is the officer's speed at that point? (c) What is the total distance each vehicle has traveled at that point?

Answer:

(a) 10 s

(b) 30 m/s

(c) 150 m

Explanation:

The motorist's position at time t is:

x = 15t

The officer's position at time t is:

x = ½ (3) t² = 1.5 t²

(a) When they have the same position, the time is:

15t = 1.5 t²

t = 0 or 10 s

(b) The officer's speed is:

v = 3t

v = 30 m/s

(c) The position is:

x = 15t = 150 m

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Which of the following statements is true with regard to transverse and longitudinal waves?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Transverse waves have motion perpendicular to velocity, while longitudinal waves have motion parallel to velocity.

Explanation:

Transverse waves are characterized by the fact that the particles of the medium in which they propagate move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave.

In other words,<u> its displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave</u>, being a good example the circular waves in the water.

On the other hand, Longitudinal waves are characterized by the fact that <u>the oscillation of the particles in the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.</u> A good example of this is the sound wave.

What could you do to change the volume of a gas?
Lorico [155]
The ONLY way to change the volume of a sample of gas is to transfer it to a container with different volume.
Simply changing its temperature or pressure in the same jar won't do it. Any amount of gas always fills whatever container you keep it in.

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits​
Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.
