Danielle is designing a system to help race cars slow safely and rapidly at her local racetrack. The racetrack is a straight, 1,000-meter stretch of asphalt. Half of the track is devoted to races and the other half is designed to let cars decelerate after crossing the finish line.
Danielle has designed a pair of small parachutes that are automatically released out the back of a car once it crosses the finish line. When her system works properly, the race car driver does not need to apply the brakes to bring the car to a stop before running out of track.
When Danielle tests a prototype of her design, it brings a race car to a stop 275 meters behind the finish line. After taking some measurements, she decides that her design causes the driver to experience too much force. To correct this, she could
A.
make the parachutes larger in order to increase the drag forces on the car and bring it to a stop 200 meters after crossing the finish line.
B.
add a third parachute in order to increase the drag forces on the car and bring it to a stop 175 meters after crossing the finish line.
C.
make the parachutes smaller in order to decrease the drag forces on the car and bring it to a stop 400 meters after crossing the finish line.
D.
remove one of the parachutes in order to decrease the drag forces on the car and bring it to a stop 550 meters after crossing the finish line.

Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.
