Newton's 3rd law is "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"

a "cool" example to describe this might be how fish swim or the impact from someone throwing a football.

This law means that when one object exerts force on another, the same amount of force is exerted on the initial object, but in the opposite reaction. For example, when a billiard ball strikes another ball, the second ball is propelled forward. Simultaneously, the momentum of the first ball is slowed or stopped by opposing force. The amount that the first object is affected by the opposing force depends on the mass and motion of the second object.

Two drag cars race. They line up at the starting line at rest. The winning car accelerates at a constant rate a and reaches the

Mila [183]

Answer: $d=\frac{v^2}{8a}$

Explanation:

Given

winning car accelerates with a and its final velocity is v

considering they both start from rest

time taken by winning car is

v=u+at

where u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

$v=at$

$t=\frac{v}{a}$

Now loosing car is accelerating with $\frac{a}{4}$

Distance traveled by loosing car in time t

$s_1=ut+\frac{at^2}{2\cdot 4}$

$s_1=0+\frac{a}{8}\times (\frac{v}{a})^2$

$s_1=\frac{v^2}{8a}$

Thus distance d traveled by loosing car is given by $d=\frac{v^2}{8a}$

Examine the droppler effect illustration above. Assume the red dot is a police car with its siren on. Which direction is the pol

Vikki [24]

Something is missing in question. But I will try to explain you about Doppler effect to reach your answer.

Answer:

It is defined as "an increase in the frequency of sound, light or other waves as the source or observer moves towards each other".

This effect causes the sudden change in pitch noticeable in passing siren.

You hear a siren from a few blocks away. The source is a police car that is racing in your direction. As the car approaches, zooms past you, and then speeds off into the distance, the sound of its siren keeps changing in pitch. First the siren gets higher in pitch, and then it suddenly gets lower.

A person throws a balloon straight down above level ground. The balloon bounces back up into the air. Drag force is significant

love history [14]

Explanation:

a) Balloon is being thrown down and is speeding up;

mg > $F_drag$

b) Balloon is in the air on its way down and moving with constant speed.

$F_drag$ =mg

c) The Balloon is on the ground and rest instantaneously

mg = Normal

d) Balloon is moving slowly downward;

e) Because, at the peak of trajectory drag force is 0.

Drag force = 0
