Answer: Option A; 9.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
When an object is in the air, and there is no air resistance acting on the object, the only force that will act on the object is the gravitational force (on the vertical axis).
Then, if the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force, the acceleration of the object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration.
We know that the gravitational acceleration is equal to:
g = 9.8m/s^2
Then the acceleration on the vertical axis will be equal to:
a(t) = 9.8m/s^2
The correct option is the first one:
A. 9.8 m/s^2
Answer:
An athlete runs before jumping to gain momentum. Because it helps in jumping higher and longer because of inertia of motion gained due to the motion. When the athletes Jump they already have a forward motion that would be greater than that of a jump made from standing in one spot.
Explanation:
Answer:
From the narrative in the question, there seem to have been a break failure and the ordered step of response to this problem is to
1) Put on the hazard light to inform other road users of a problem or potential fault with your car and so they should continue their journey with caution.
2) Avoid pressing on the acceleration pedal as this might cause the car to gradually slow down due to friction and gravity
3)Try navigate the car to the service lane. This is the less busy lane where cars are sometimes parked briefly.
4) Continuously pump the breaks to try stop the car. Continuously pumping the breaks might just help you build enough pressure to stop the car because often time, there are some pressure left in the break.
5) At this point, the speed of the car should be relatively slow. So at this point, you could try apply the emergency hand break. Do not pull the emergency hand breaks if the car is on high speed. Doing this may cause the car to skid off the road.
