Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Mechanical waves requires some medium to travel through. They travel faster in the dense medium as compared to a free medium.

The speed of a mechanical wave is fastest in the solid medium and the slowest in the gaseous medium. Hence, as the wave traverses from gaseous medium to the solid medium, its speed increases.

Thus, option A is correct

A car with four passengers will have a shorter braking distance than a car with one braking distance. True or false. Why?
Valentin [98]

<u>Answer:</u>

The given statement is a True statement

<u>Explanation:</u>

All cars and trucks have load capacities marked on the jamb of the driver's door, as well as the owner's manual. This is very significant for braking distance.

A heavier object will require much more braking force and distance to stop, due to New ton's law of motion. “ An object in motion will tend to stay in motion “ .A heavy object will remain in motion longer and require much more force to stop. Four wheel disc brakes are great compared to front disc and rear drum configuration, in dissipating heat, and stopping more efficiently.

Enter a curve slower than the posted speed if your vehicle has a high center of gravity or if surface _____________ is less than
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Traction

Explanation:

Enter a curve slower than the posted speed if your vehicle has a high center of gravity or if surface Traction is less than ideal.

Traction is an act of drawing or pulling something over a surface specially a road or a track or it also defined as the grip of a tire on road or a wheel on rail. So speed when entering a curve should be slower when the tire has low traction to avoid accident.

A motorboat heads due east at 16 m/s across a river that flows due south at 9.0 m/s. a.) What is the resultant velocity of the b
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

a)V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b) t =7.41 m/s

c)D= 66.70 m

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity of boat in east direction = 16 m/s

Velocity of river = 9 m/s

a)The resultant velocity V

V=\sqrt{16^2+9^2}\ m/s

V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b)

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

Lets t time takes to cross the river

136 = 18.35 x t

t =7.41 m/s

c)

   The distance covered downstream  

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

t= 7.41 s

D= 7.41 x 9 m

D= 66.70 m
