Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved in an inelastic collision. In a completely-inelastic collision, both objects have a common final velocity.  Once the relative speed between the mosquito and the raindrop is zero, the mosquito is able to detach from the drop and escape

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The pushing of the car by you and your friends is the applied force and when the car moves, it means that the velocity has changed thus causing the movement or acceleration.

Explanation:

Newton's work on forces regarding motion can never be neglected by scientists. Sir Isaac Newton when he was alive, among several of his works he proposed the three laws guiding the forces of motion. In this question we are only going to be treating only one out of the three Newton's Law of motion and that is the second Law Of Newton's laws of motion.

The second Law Of Newton's laws of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the object's mass.

(1). Now, to the question: " How are you and your friends applying Newton's second law of motion here? "

The pushing of the car by you and your friends is the applied force and when the car moves, it means that the velocity has changed thus causing the movement or acceleration.

According to the law, the more the Force, the more the acceleration.

(2). For the second part of the question, " What if the car you were traveling in was a large SUV?"

From the law stated above we see that the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass, thus if the car is a large SUV, It means that more force is needed to change the car's velocity.

Ne4ueva [31]

Explanation :

Bioinformatics is the science that manages the database, digital tools and software used by both medicine and forensic science to store and analyze DNA.

It involves the use of computers to collect all the data and organize data. It also develops methods and computational tools for understanding biological data.

It helps in tracing the evolution of organism using DNA and builds a computational model.

Rus_ich [418]
<span>1. Kuiper Belt object is made of frozen is made of frozen gas, ice, and dust that orbits in the outermost reaches of the solar system. Kuiper belt is a region which is filled with icy gaz bodies. Its structure is almost the same as the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Pluto, Makemake, Haumea are the officially recognized planets which are located in this region. 2. In my opinion, the most suitable option is: 3) The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust. According to theory of solar system formation, the solar system appeared after a supernova (star explosion). A cloud of gas and dust was collapsed, and it caused a formation of a solar nebula.

a 15 kg tv sots on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m. how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when it is l
nata0808 [166]
Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).

Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.

After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.

To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:

147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.
