Answer:

The drag force is increase by 2.9

Explanation:

The drag force on the car is:

$F_{drag} =\frac{1}{2} pCAv^{2}$

Where p is the density, A is the area of the car facing the air, C is the drag coefficient and v is the velocity. If k=(pCA)/2, then we have:

Fdrag=kv^2

For the speed 65 km/h:

Fdrag1=k(65^2)

For the speed 110 km/h

Fdrag2=k(110^2)

The ratio is:

Ratio=Fdrag2/Fdrag1=(k*65^2)/(k*110^2)=2.9

Which sentence describes Newton's first law?

Marrrta [24]

$\Large{\red{\bf{\blue{\dag} Answer:-}}}$

Newton's First Law of Motion :

An object stays in rest or in uniform motion unless and until compelled by an external unbalanced force . This is also known as " Law of Inertia " .

Here this statement is best represented by the statement : Unbalanced forces cause an object to move. [ option c ]

More to know :-

Newton's 3 laws of motion :-

Newton's First Law of Motion :-

It states that an object stays in rest or in uniform motion unless and until compelled by an external unbalanced force . This is also known as " Law of Inertia " .

Ex - (i) We tend to fall backwards while standing in the bus , when it starts suddenly.

(ii) We tend to fall forward while standing in the bus , when it stops suddenly.

Newton's Second Law of Motion :-

It states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force in the direction of the force . That is ∆p $\propto$ Force .

Ex - (i) When we push car & a truck with same force the car will have Greater acceleration due to less mass . (Imaginary case ).

(ii) We feel easy to push a empty cart than a full cart .

Newton's Third Law of Motion :-

It states that every action has equal and opposite reaction .

Ex - (i) We are able to walk on ground due to Newton's third law of motion .

(ii) When we push wall it also applies equal and opposite force .

What are the historical solar system models. Differences

Rasek [7]

Aristarchus(310-230 BC)
Aristarchus was a Greek Astronomer and Mathematician. He proposed the heliocentric model of the Solar System. He attempted to measure the distances from the moon to the sun.
Aristotle (334-322 BC)
Aristotle was a Greek Philosopher. He was the first person to propose this historical model. He thought the Earth was in the center of all celestial beings. His idea was that the Earth was in the middle of the sun, moon, stars, and other planets. 
Ptolemy(100-170 CE)
Ptolemy was a astronomer and a geographer and a mathematician! He proposed the geocentric model. He believed that a celestial body could go at a constant speed in a perfect circle. It was called the "wheels-on-wheels" system. It had better observations than the model that had came before his. His geocentric model was used for the next 14 centuries! 
Kepler(1571-1630)
German astronomer and mathematician, Johannes Kepler, studied very hard and closely, and he found out that the planets did not fit the observations that were made by previous explorers. He found one that fit the best out of them all! He found three principles, called Kepler's Laws.

The frequency heard by the moth is the frequency emitted by the bat by virtue of its speed; 38.0kHz. B) If the speed of the bat is increased, the frequency heard by the moth is higher.

<h3>What is the frequency heard by the moth?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the frequency of the emitted by the bat is heard by the moth and hence, the frequency heard by the moth is; 38kHz.

B) Since, the speed and frequency of sound waves are directly proportional, speed = wavelength × frequency; it therefore follows that when the speed of the bat is increased, the frequency heard by the moth is higher.
