Any help guys? I am stuck on two problems.

If you are sitting in the back seat of a car that makes a hard left turn, you will feel pushed toward the right side of the car.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Inertia

Explanation:

Your body is naturally resisting turning left, as it wants to continue straight. So if feels like you are going right.

An initially stationary object experiences an acceleration of 6 m/s2 for a time of 15 s. How far will it travel during that time

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The object will travel 675 m during that time.

Explanation:

A body moves with constant acceleration motion or uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion (u.a.r.m) when the path is a straight line, but the velocity is not necessarily constant because there is an acceleration.

In other words, a body performs a u.a.r.m when its path is a straight line and its acceleration is constant. This implies that the speed increases or decreases uniformly.

In this case, the position is calculated using the expression:

x = xo + vo*t + ½*a*t²

where:

x0 is the initial position.
v0 is the initial velocity.
a is the acceleration.
t is the time interval in which the motion is studied.

In this case:

x0= 0
v0= 0 because the object is initially stationary
a= 6 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$
t= 15 s

Replacing:

x= 0 + 0*15 s + ½*6 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ *(15s)²

Solving:

x=½*6 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ *(15s)²

x=½*6 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ *225 s²

x= 675 m

The object will travel 675 m during that time.

Define the law of universal gravitation in your own words.

Firdavs [7]

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers

Two balls are thrown against a wall. Ball 1 has a much higher speed than ball 2.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Let both the balls have the same mass equals to m.

Let $v_1$ and $v_2$ be the speed of the ball1 and the ball2 respectively, such that

$v_1>v_2\;\cdots(i)$

Assuming that both the balls are at the same level with respect to the ground, so let h be the height from the ground.

The total energy of ball1= Kinetic energy of ball1 + Potential energy of ball1. The Kinetic energy of any object moving with speed, $v$ , is $\frac 12 m v^2$

and the potential energy is due to the change in height is $mgh$ [where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity]

So, the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_1^2 + mgh\;\cdots(ii)$

and the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_2^2 + mgh\;\cdots(iii)$ .

Here, the potential energy for both the balls are the same, but the kinetic energy of the ball1 is higher the ball2 as the ball1 have the higher speed, refer equation (i)

So, $\frac 12 m v_1^2 >\frac 12 m v_2^2$

Now, from equations (ii) and (iii)

The total energy of ball1 hi higher than the total energy of ball2.
