The SI unit of force is the Newton.

1 newton is the force that accelerates a 1 kilogram mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second².

1 pound of force is equivalent to roughly  4.448 newtons.

(1 newton is equivalent to roughly  0.225  pounds of force.)

Three cars, car x, car y, and car z, begin accelerating from rest, at the same time. car x is more massive than car y, which is
grigory [225]

When the net force exerted on each car is identical. after 10 seconds, the amount of momentum is same for all cars.

<h3>What is impulse?</h3>

The change in momentum is equal to the product of impact force applied while colliding and time for that impact.

F. t = m (Vf -Vi)

where, Vf is the final velocity and Vi is the initial velocity.

For car X, Fx x t = Mx Vx

For car Y, Fy x t = My Vy

For car Z, Fz x t = Mz Vz

The force applied is same for all and the the time is also same equal to 10 seconds. The impulse is same for all the cars.

Thus, the three cars have same momentum.

The sun is 1.5 × 108 km from Earth. The index of refraction for water is 1.349. How much longer would it take light from the sun
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

175s

Explanation:

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  vacuum

C=light speed=299792458m/s

X=1.5x10^8km=1.5x10^11m

c=X/t

T1=X/c

T1=1.5X10^11/299792458=500.34s

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  water:

First we calculate the speed of light in water taking into account the refractive index

Cw=299792458m/s/1.349=222233104.5m/s

T2=1.5x10^11/222233104.5m/s=675s

additional time it would take for the light to reach the earth

ΔT=T2-T1=675-500=175s

Sliding friction is _ than the static friction.
Alona [7]

Answer:

less

Explanation:

Sliding friction is always less than static friction. This is because in sliding friction, the bodies slide with each other and thus the effect of friction is not more. However, it does not happen in the case of static friction.
