What is the term for the principal that an object in motion remains in motion until it is met by an outside force?

The term for the principal that an object in motion remains in motion until it is met by an outside force is called inertia

Newton's first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force .This principal is named as inertia .

Every matter have inertia , a property to remain in that very position until unless it is been forced on them to change their position .

Inertia is a property of matter that causes it to resist changes in velocity (speed and/or direction). According to Newton's first law of motion, an object with a given velocity maintains that velocity unless acted on by an external force. Inertia is the property of matter that makes this law hold true.

If a car's speed triples, how does the momentum and kinetic energy of the

Harrizon [31]

Answer: When the car speed triples, momentum also triples but Kinetic energy increases 9 times or by 9 fold.

Explanation:

The momentum of a car (an object) is

p= mv

where

m is =the mass of the object( in this case car)

v is its= velocity

While the kinetic energy is is given by the formulae

K=1/2mv²

To determine how momentum and kinetic energy of the car changes when the speed of the object triples, We have that the new velocity,

v¹= 3v

So that the momentum change becomes

p¹=mv¹=m (3v)= 3mv

mv=p

therefore p¹= 3p

we can see that the momentum also triples.

And the kinetic energy change becomes

K¹=1/2m(v¹)²= 1/2m (3v)²

= 1/2m9v²= 1/2 x m x 9 x v²=9 x1/2mv²

1/2mv²=K

K¹= Kinetic energy = 9k

but Kinetic energy increases 9 times

A projector is placed on the ground 22 ft. away from a projector screen. A 5.2 ft. tall person is walking toward the screen at a

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet, y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

y = y₀ L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

v = d / t

d = v t

we replace

y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

y = 114.4 / (22-13)

y = 67.6 feet
