Answer:

Opposite direction

Explanation:

For example: The first object travels in the direction pointing to east, while the other one travels pointing to the west.

The first object will have a positive value while the second one will have a negative, cause it's going to the opposite direction

chubhunter [2.5K]

"Anti-Lock" brake systems release the brakes momentarily when wheel speed sensors indicate a locked wheel during braking and traction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The safety anti-skid braking system is known as "anti-lock braking system" having huge application on land vehicles like one, two and multiple wheeler vehicles and aircraft. During braking, it avoids wheels to get locked by building tractive contacts to the road's surface.

This seems to be an automated system work on the principles of techniques - threshold and cadence braking. The wheel velocity sensors are utilized by ABS to find whether one or more than one wheels chose to get lock while braking.

A projectile is fired at an upward angle of 29.7° from the top of a 108-m-high cliff with a speed of 130-m/s. What will be its
german

Answer:

79.2 m/s

Explanation:

θ = angle at which projectile is launched = 29.7 deg

a = initial speed of launch = 130 m/s

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

v₀ = initial velocity along the vertical direction = a Sinθ = 130 Sin29.7 = 64.4 m/s

y = vertical displacement = - 108 m

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v = final speed as it strikes the ground

Using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a y

v² = 64.4² + 2 (-9.8) (-108)

v = 79.2 m/s
