According to Newton's second law, the force applied to an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

where F is the magnitude of the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.
In this problem, the object is the insect, with mass

. The acceleration of the insect is

, therefore we can calculate the force exerted by the car on the insect:

How do we find the force exerted by the insect on the car?
According to Newton's third law (known as action-reaction law), when an object A exerts a force on an object B, object B also exerts a force equal and opposite on object A. Therefore, the force exerted by the insect on the car is equal to the force exerted by the car on the object, so it is 0.01 N.
The correct answer to the question is : Transverse wave.
EXPLANATION :
Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the longitudinal and transverse wave.
LONGITUDINAL WAVE : A longitudinal wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of compression and rarefaction.
For instance, sound wave.
TRANSVERSE WAVE : A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the direction of vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. It moves in the form of crests and troughs.
For instance, the wave created in a pond when a stone is dropped into it.
Hence, the correct answer of this question is transverse wave.
Answer:
Potential energy is 
Explanation:
The potential energy depends on the mass, the acceleration of gravity g and the height at which the object or person is.
Potential energy 
In this case we would need to know the exact mass of the hiker in order to calculate the potential energy.
But we know the values of g and h


So, the potential energy

m is the mass of the hiker, wich is not in the description of the problem.
Answer:
The force of gravity exerts a downward force. The floor exerts an upward force. Since these two forces are of equal magnitude and in opposite directions, they balance each other.
