A technician is diagnosing a car that had both front brake hoses replaced 5,000 miles ago. An inspection reveals that the right

front brake hose has ruptured. Technician A says the specifications called for DOT 3 fluid; using DOT 4 fluid caused the failure. Technician B says the brake hose was twisted and stressed too much when installed. Who is correct?a. Tech Ab. Tech Bc. Both A and Bd. None

Answer:

Option B

Technician B only is correct

Explanation:

Technician a is wrong because the rupture was not caused by switching DOT (Department of Transportation) 3 and DOT 4 Brake fluids. As a matter of fact both brake fluids are compatible with most vehicular systems, and to a certain extent they can be used interchangeably without any adverse effect.

Technician B on the other hand, gives a more accurate reason, since a twisted brake hose will definitely fail and rupture once enough force is applied to it, which is most likely the case of what happened considering the mileage it ran before rupturing. Within this mileage, it is very possible for the pressure on the already twisted brake hose to have been damaging it gradually before finally making it to rupture.

Angular and Linear Quantities: A child is riding a merry-go-round that has an instantaneous angular speed of 1.25 rad/s and an a
serious [3.7K]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion in relation to those of linear / tangential motion.

We will proceed to find the centripetal acceleration (From the ratio of the radius and angular velocity to the linear velocity) and the tangential acceleration to finally find the total acceleration of the body.

Our data is given as:

\omega = 1.25 rad/s \rightarrow The angular speed

\alpha = 0.745 rad/s2 \rightarrow The angular acceleration

r = 4.65 m \rightarrow The distance

The relation between the linear velocity and angular velocity is

v = r\omega

Where,

r = Radius

\omega = Angular velocity

At the same time we have that the centripetal acceleration is

a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}

a_c = \frac{(r\omega)^2}{r}

a_c = \frac{r^2\omega^2}{r}

a_c = r \omega^2

a_c = (4.65 )(1.25 rad/s)^2

a_c = 7.265625 m/s^2

Now the tangential acceleration is given as,

a_t = \alpha r

Here,

\alpha = Angular acceleration

r = Radius

\alpha = (0.745)(4.65)

\alpha = 3.46425 m/s^2

Finally using the properties of the vectors, we will have that the resulting component of the acceleration would be

|a| = \sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}

|a| = \sqrt{(7.265625)^2+(3.46425)^2}

|a| = 8.049 m/s^2 \approx 8.05 m/s2

Therefore the correct answer is C.

A series circuit contains a 100.0-Ω resistor, a 0.450-H inductor, a 0.360-µF capacitor, and a time-varying source of emf providi
eduard

Answer:

A) The resonance angular frequency in an L-R-C circuit is

\omega_0 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{0.45\times0.36\times 10^{-6}}}\\\omega_0 = 2.48\times10^3 rad/s

B) The current can be found by calculating the impedance of the system.

Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2} = R

Since X_L = X_C at resonance.

So, I = V/Z = V/R = 30 / 100 = 0.3A

A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up in the air. After the pin leaves his hand and while it is in the air, which statement
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The velocity of the pin is opposite its acceleration on the way up.

(d) option is correct.

Explanation:

when the juggler throws a bowling pin straight in the air, the acceleration working on the pin is in the downward direction due to the gravitational force of the earth.

According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation

''The gravitational force is a force that attracts any objects with mass''

PLS HELP ASAP!!! <br> I don’t understand this at all

Answer:

The part that completes the nuclear equation is:

           ^{221}_{87}Fr

Explanation:

<h2>A) Preliminar explanation</h2>

The <em>nuclear equation</em> represents a nuclear reaction: the change of the nucleus of an atom.

The given equation represents an actinium atom releasing an alpha particle.

This is the meaning of each part of the equation:

  • Ac is the chemical symbol of actinium
  • The superscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the mass number of the atom (number of protons plus number of neutrons). The mass number is 225.
  • The subscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the atomic number of the atom (number of protons). The atomic number is 89.

  • ^4_2He is the symbol of the alpha particle. It is an atom of helium
  • The mass number is 4
  • The atomic number is 2

<h2>B) Solution</h2>

To <em>complete the nuclear equation </em>you must do two balances: mass number balance and atomic number balance.

<u>i) Mass number balance</u>

  • 225 = A + 4 ⇒ A = 225 - 4 = 221

<u>ii) Atomic number balance</u>

  • 89 = Z + 2 ⇒ Z = 89 - 2 = 87

Therefore, the mass number of the unknown atom is 221, and the atomic number is 87.

From a periodic table, the element with atomic number 87 is francium, Fr.

Now, you have the chemical symbol, the atomic number, and the mass number of the unknown atom, which lets you to write the atom that completes the <em>nuclear equation</em>.

On a cross-country trip, a couple drives 500 mi in 10 h on the first day, 380 mi in 8.0 h on the second day, and 600 mi in 15 h
Zepler [3.9K]

We know that the average speed is simply the ratio of the total distance travelled over the total duration of the trip.

total distance = 500 mi + 380 mi + 600 mi

total distance = 1,480 mi

 

total time = 10 h + 8 h + 15 h

total time = 33 h

 

So the average speed is therefore:

average speed = 1,480 mi / 33 h

<span>average speed = 44.85 mi / h</span>
