A motorboat and a pwc are approaching head-on. what action should be taken?

1 answer:

7 0

In this situation, both of the vehicles turn towards starboard.

By turning to the starboard, or right, side, the vehicles are able to avoid collision. Because waterways are not marked in a manner like roads are, it is necessary to place such conventions of turning in situations where vehicles approach one another head on. If a convention was not in place, the risk of collision would be many times greater. For example, the motorboat operator may turn left, while the PWC operator turns right, resulting in a collision.

A student has made the statement that the electric flux through one half of a Gaussian surface is always equal and opposite to t

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

E.true only when no charge is enclosed within the Gaussian surface.

Explanation:

Because Gauss’s law states that the net flux of an electric field in a closed surface is directly proportional to the enclosed electric charge.

Name the force between the brakes and the wheels that does work to slow down the vehicle when the brakes are applied

Feliz [49]

when brakes are applied then the tyres are stopped by brake- shoe

these brake shoe are rubber grip which hold tight at the rim of tyre

when these brake show hold tight at the rim then it will apply normal force on the tyre

Due to the rough surface of rubber and rim of the tyre these two surface apply force of friction on these two surfaces

Due to this friction force it resist the motion of tyre and due to which tyre will stop.

So the main cause to stop the tyre will be FRICTION force between brake shoe and tyre rim

What fossil fuels produce a gas when that are burned that adds to the greenhouse effect

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) makes up the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions from the sector, but smaller amounts of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are also emitted. These gases are released during the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, to produce electricity.

Two metal plates 15mm apart have a potential difference of 750v between them. The force on a small charged sphere placed between

Romashka [77]

Answer:

50,000 V/m

Explanation:

The electric field between two charged metal plates is uniform.

The relationship between potential difference and electric field strength for a uniform field is given by the equation

$\Delta V=Ed$
