10. Inertia causes your books on the car seat to continue moving forward even after you brake. TrueFalse 11. Tires with little or no tread do not have good traction on a wet, snowy, or icy road. TrueFalse 12. When driving on ice and snow, traction is poorest when the temperature is near 32 degrees F. TrueFalse 13. The more energy of motion that a car has, the less time and distance it will take to stop. TrueFalse 14. To help slow a car using engine braking, just take your foot off the accelerator. TrueFalse

The position of a dragonfly that is flying parallel to the ground is given as a function of time by r⃗ =[2.90m+(0.0900m/s2)t2]i^− (0.0150m/s3)t3j^. a: at what value of t does the velocity vector of the insect make an angle of 34.0 degree clockwise from the x-axis? b: at the time calculated in part (a), what is the magnitude of the acceleration vector of the insect? c : at the time calculated in part (a), what is the direction of the acceleration vector of the insect?

What are the factors that affect the resistance of a wire?

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.
