Answer:

25.59 m/s²

Explanation:

Using the formula for  the force of static friction:

f_s = \mu_s N --- (1)

where;

f_s = static friction force

\mu_s = coefficient of static friction

N = normal force

Also, recall that:

F = mass × acceleration

Similarly, N = mg

here, due to min. acceleration of the car;

N = ma_{min}

From equation (1)

f_s = \mu_s ma_{min}

However, there is a need to balance the frictional force by using the force due to the car's acceleration between the quarter and the wall of the rocket.

Thus,

F = f_s

mg = \mu_s ma_{min}

a_{min} = \dfrac{mg }{ \mu_s m}

a_{min} = \dfrac{g }{ \mu_s }

where;

\mu_s = 0.383 and g = 9.8 m/s²

a_{min} = \dfrac{9.8 \ m/s^2 }{0.383 }

\mathbf{a_{min}= 25.59 \ m/s^2}

Which choice defines AC and DC correctly?
Aleks [24]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Direct current is a current which flows in one direction, that is, flow of electrons is only in one direction.

Whereas alternate current is a current which reverses periodically, that is, there will be change in direction of electrons after a period of time.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, In DC, electrons move in only one direction. In AC, electrons move in one direction and then in the other direction defines AC and DC correctly.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The correct answer is (A)

Explanation:

Cooling fans are designed to move air through the radiator, this airflow removes heat from the coolant created by the engine using the radiator as a conductor.

These fans are featured in both front and rear-wheel drive vehicles and are activated by a coolant sensor.

All engines have a preferred operating temperature which requires a warm-up period to operate at peak efficiency. When cooling fan operation fails, it will cause the engine coolant to retain heat, forcing the engine to get overheat.

I hope it helps!
