Alona [7]

Answer: It is not likely.

Explanation:

When the bus is moving forward, all the objects inside of it also are moving forward.

Now, as the objects inside the buss are not fixed to the bus, if the bus suddenly stops the objects inside of it will keep moving forward, because of the conservation of the momentum, defined as the quantity of motion (Similar to when you are in a car and it suddenly stops, you can feel the forward impulse).

Then is not likely that, in a case where the bus stops suddenly, an object inside the bus flies backward in opposite direction to the previous movement of the bus.

disa [49]

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. $10^{23}$ for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

An automobile having a mass of 1,000 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring with cons

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$v=2.02\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Assuming no energy lost, according to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the automobile becomes potential energy after the crash:

$K=U\\\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}$

Here m is the automobile's mass, v is the speed of the car before impact, k is the "bumper" constant and x is the compression of the bumper due to the collision. Solving for v:

$v=x\sqrt\frac{k}{m}\\v=2.63*10^{-2}m\sqrt{\frac{5.9*10^6\frac{N}{m}}{10^3kg}}\\v=2.02\frac{m}{s}$

What happens in the process of gravitational condensation?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

An object decreases in size due to the collision of materials. An object increases in size due to the addition of materials. Gas particles are formed from solar nebula materials.
