Physics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c. Joints allow the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge

Explanation:

The reasons why joints are allowed on roadway is to accommodate the contraction and expansion of the road as cars put force on them.

  • Most materials used in making roadways are susceptible to expansion and contraction.
  • When a measure of force is applied their length either increases or decreases depending on the type of force.
  • To accommodate these changes, joints are placed in roadways

Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

A 49 N block has a mass of 5 kg:

49/9.8

A horizontal force of 50 N giving it an acceleration of 6 m/s^2 means that 30 N is taken up by the acceleration

This leaves 20 N to take care for friction. so the coefficient of friction is:

20/49 = 0.41.

Three resistors of equal resistance are connected in series as shown. Compared to the voltage provided by the battery, voltage a
dsp73

Answer:

the voltage across each resistor is one third of the battery voltage

Explanation:

In a series circuit, the current is constant throughout the circuit, so the battery voltage is equal to the sum of the voltage drop in each part of the series circuit.

        V = i (R₁ + R₂ + R₃)

       

in the exercise indicate that all resistance has the same value

         R₀ = R₁ = R₂ = R₃

        V = i 3 R₀

        V = 3 V₀

         V₀ = i R₀

          V₀= V / 3

the voltage across each resistor is one third of the battery voltage

Under normal conditions, the forced expiratory volume is normally _______.
Ymorist [56]
<span>Under normal conditions, the forced expiratory volume is normally 75-85 % of the vital capacity.
According to its definition, forced expiratory volume (FEV) refers to "how much a person can exhale during a forced breath." And a person can exhale from 75 to 85 percent of their entire breathing capacity. This is one of the tests to check the function of the lungs. </span>
