Ignition safety switch
The ignition safety switch, often known as the engine cut-off switch, is the most critical piece of equipment for preventing propeller strike injuries. The purpose of this device is to turn off the boat engine immediately so the propeller will be halted and an accident can be avoided.

An object slides on a level surface in the +x direction. It slows and comes to a stop with a constant acceleration of -2.45 m/s2
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

uk = 0.25

Explanation:

Given:-

- An object comes to stop with acceleration, a = -2.45 m/s^2

Find:-

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the floor?

Solution:-

- Assuming the object has mass (m) that slides over a rough surface with coefficient of kinetic friction (uk). There is only Frictional force (Ff) acting in the horizontal axis on the object opposing the motion (-x direction).

- We will apply equilibrium equation on the object in vertical direction.

                               N - m*g = 0

                               N = m*g

Where,  N : Contact force exerted by the surface on the floor

             g : Gravitational acceleration constant = 9.81 m/s^2

- Now apply Newton's second law of motion in the horizontal ( x-direction ):

                             - Ff = m*a

- The frictional force is related to contact force (N) by the following expression:

                              Ff = uk*N

- Substitute the 1st and 3rd expressions in the 2nd equation:

                             uk*m*g = -m*a

                             uk = a / g

- Plug in the values and solve for uk:

                             uk = - (-2.45) / 9.81

                             uk = 0.25

How much KCI can be dissolved in 100 g of water at 30°C?​
asambeis [7]

Answer:

34

Explanation:

The problem provides you with thesolubility of potassium chloride, KCl , in water at 20∘C , which is said to be equal to 34 g / 100 g H2O . This means that at 20∘C , a saturated solution of potassium chloride will contain 34 g of dissolved salt for every100 g of water.

If a galaxy is located 200 million light years from Earth, what can you conclude about
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

It's quite simple actually, you see, what light years basically means is how many years light takes to travel from point a to point b. So here it says that a galaxy is 200 million light years away. So since that light is 200 million years away, it would take 200 million years until that light reaches us.
