Acompact car has a maximum acceleration of 4.0 m/s2 when it carries only the driver and has a total mass of 1200 kg . you may want to review ( pages 108 - 109) . part a what is its maximum acceleration after picking up four passengers and their luggage, adding an additional 400 kg of mass?

Ten students stand in a circle and are told to make a transverse wave. what best describes the motion of the students? each student bumps the shoulder of his or her neighbor. at the exact time, all students take a step to the right. the students skip clockwise, going in a circular motion. one at a time, each student lifts his or her hands up and then down.

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit
