When you drive through deep water, you should dry out your brakes by _____________. pumping your brakes and driving in low gear

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

By Applying pressure to the brakes

Explanation:

Driving cars through deep water that is more than 10cm can make the cars to float. Most modern cars are usually water- tight so they can start to float through water that is about 30cm deep, fast moving water is very powerful so one needs to be very careful when driving.

If the brakes are wet test them by pressing or tapping on them gently.

You can as well dry brakes by driving in low gear and applying pressure to the brakes.

1. An express train, traveling at 36 m/s, is accidentally sidetracked onto a local train track. The express engineer spots a loc

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(i) 12 seconds

(ii) 216 meters from the initial position

(iii) 132 meters from the initial position

(iv) No

Explanation:

Speed of express train =36 m/s

Speed of local train =11 m/s

The initial distance between the local train and passenger train =100 m.

Due to the application of breaks, the express train slows at the rare of $3.0 m/s^2.$

So, the acceleration of the express train, $a=-3 m/s^2$ .

(i) Let t be the time the express train takes to stop.

From the equation of motion,

v=u+at

where, v: final velocity, u: initial velocity, a: constant acceleration, t: time taken to change the speed from u to v.

In this case, v=0, u=36 m/s, $a=-3 m/s^2$

So, 0=36+(-3)t

$\Rightarrow t= 36/3=12$ seconds.

(ii) To compute the distance traveled, s, till the express train stops, using

$v^2=u^2+2as$

$\Rightarrow 0^2=36^2+2(-3)s$

$\Rightarrow s=\frac{36\times36}{6}$

$\Rightarrow s=216$ meters.

(iii) The local train is moving at a speed of 11 m/s

So, in 12 seconds, the distance, d, traveled by the local train

d= 11x12=132 meters [as distance= speed x time]

(iv) Let 0 be the reference position which is the initial position of the express train.

So, at the initial time, the position of the local train is at 100m.

After 12 seconds:

The position of the express train is at 216 m [using part (ii)]

and the position of the local train is at 100+132=232m [using part (iii)].

So, the local train is still ahead of the express train, hence the trains didn't collide.

when a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. when a certain constant

solong [7]

Explanation:

When a constant force acts upon an object the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.

$a\propto \dfrac{1}{m}$

$\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}$

If m₁ = 21 kg, a₁ = 3 m/s², m₂ = 9 kg

We need to find a₂

So,

$a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{21\times 3}{9}\\\\a_2=7\ m/s^2$

So, if mass is 9 kg, its acceleration is 7 m/s².
