If you don't wear a helmet and let's say you fell off your bike, you can severely injure your head! But if you DO wear a helmet and you fell off your bike, there's about I predict a 98% chance that you won't injure but sometimes it's 100%

hope this helps!<span />

Answer:

Explanation:

A bicycle helmet is a very important gear to wear before riding a bicycle because :

1. It protects your head and brain from injury when you fall or crash into a moving car.

2. It reduces the chances of head,face and neck injuries.

It gives you the opportunity to show off your style. Most bicycle helmets have very colourful and great designs that add beauty to your outlook while riding a bicycle.

3. It makes you visible to other motorist using the road especially at night. Bicycle helmets has reflective shiny colours that gets the other road users attention.

The floor of the Atlantic Ocean is spreading slowly. It spreads at the rate of 1 to 10 centimeters per year. Why would it be use
In-s [12.5K]

C because...

Models represent objects, events, and processes in the real world.

Models are often used when an object, event, or process

occurs too slowly or too quickly;

is too small or too large;

is too complicated or too dangerous.

The ocean is spreading at such a slow rate that it would take scientists 50 or more years to collect enough meaningful data from the ocean floor to complete a study. Therefore, scientists use models in order to both predict how the floor will keep spreading and to understand what the ocean floor looked like thousands of years in the past.

A .5kg bird is perched on its nest so that it has 50J of potential energy. how far is it off the of the ground?
pshichka [43]

It is 10.20 m from the ground.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Given:</u>

m = 0.5 kg

PE = 50 J

We know that the Potential energy is calculated by the formula:

P. E = m \times g \times h

where m is the is mass in kg;  g  is acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s  and  h  is height in meters.

PE is the Potential Energy.

Potential Energy is the amount of energy stored when an object is stationary.

Here, if we substitute the values in the formula, we get

P. E = m \times g \times h

50 = 0.5 × 9.8 × h

50 = 4.9 × h

h = \frac {50} {4.9}

h = 10.20 m

the book has a mass of 2.5 kg. What net force must act on the book to mak it accelerate to the left at a rate of 7.0m/s2?
Reil [10]

Answer:

17.5 N

Explanation:

<h2>Given :</h2>

  • Mass (m) = 2.5 kg
  • Acceleration (a) = 7.0 m/s²

<h2>To calculate :</h2>

  • Force exerted (F)

<h2>Calculation :</h2>

<h3>• F = ma</h3>

→ F = (2.5 × 7.0) N

→ F = 25/10 × 7 N

→ F = 5/2 × 7 N

→ F = (5 × 7)/2 N

→ F = 35/2 N

→ <u>F</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>N</u><u> </u><u>towards</u><u> </u><u>left</u>

Hence, 17.5 N of net force must act on the book to make it accelerate to the left.

An AC generator has an output rms voltage of 100.0 V at a frequency of 42.0 Hz. If the generator is connected across a 45.0-mH i
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

(a) 11.8692‬ ohm

(b) 12.447 A

(c) 17.6 A

Explanation:

a)  inductive reactance Z = L Ω

    = L x 2π x F

    = 45.0 x 10⁻³ x 2(3.14) x 42

    = 11.8692‬ ohm

b) rms current

    = 100 / 8.034

    = 12.447 A

c) maximum current in the circuit

    = I eff x rac2

    = 12.447 x 1.414

    = 17.6 A
