Yes, because gravity always exerts a force whether an object is at rest or in motion. Gravity is the reason we aren’t all floating as cool as that would be we would probably be hit by a plane

1. explain why mid-sized cars and SUVs have different rollover fatality rates.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

1.  They generally have poorer fuel efficiency and require more resources to manufacture than smaller vehicles, thus contributing more to climate change and environmental degradation. Their higher center of gravity increases their risk of rollovers.

2. Mid-sized cars and SUVs both have a fixed object fatality rate of 2.6/BVM. This is most likely because they have a similar mass and inertia. The force of the crash is likely to have about the same deceleration in both vehicles.

Which sentence in the passage can be used to conclude that Eris is a dwarf planet and not a planet?
Lelu [443]
Eris is slightly more massive than Pluto. However, both of them are smaller than Earth's Moon.
This should conclude that Eris is a dwarf planet.

When an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for
uysha [10]

Answer:

F=5449 N

Explanation:

Work done is a product of force and displacement ie

Work done, W, = Force*Displacement

Power, P, is Work done/Time

P=\frac {W}{t}=\frac {FS}{t} where P is power, W is work done, F is force, S is displacement and t is time

In this case, F is the frictional force. Converting the power from hp to W, we multiply by 746 hence P=746*168=125328  W

Since displacement/time is velocity, then

P=FV where V is velocity in m/s

Making F the subject

F=\frac {P}{V}

F=\frac {125328}{23}=5449.043478  N

F=5449 N

if we ignore air resistance the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it accelerate why?​
quester [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.

As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.

A wheel of radius R, mass M, and moment of inertia I is mounted on a frictionless, horizontal axles. A light cord wrapped around
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

\alpha =\frac{m*g*R}{I-m*R^2}

a = \frac{m*g*R^2}{I-m*R^2}

T=\frac{I*m*g}{I-m*R^2}

Explanation:

By analyzing the torque on the wheel we get:

T*R=I*\alpha    Solving for T:   T=I/R*\alpha

On the object:

T-m*g = -m*a    Replacing our previous value for T:

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*a

The relation between angular and linear acceleration is:

a=\alpha*R

So,

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*\alpha*R

Solving for α:

\alpha =\frac{R*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

The linear acceleration will be:

a =\frac{R^2*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

And finally, the tension will be:

T =\frac{I*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

These are the values of all the variables: α, a, T
