you know that both the car and the snowball exert a force on each other. What can you say about the magnitude of the forces exerted by the snowball and the car?. . A. The force exerted by the car is more than the force exerted b y the snowballl.. B. The force exerted by the car is less than the force exerted by the snowball. . C. The force exerted by the car is equal to the force exerted by the snowball. . D. The force exerted by the car is zero.

Answer:

C. The force exerted by the car is equal to the force exerted by the snowball.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

" When an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object B". These two forces are called action and reaction, and the law states that the two forces are equal in magnitude, and opposite in direction.

In this problem, we are considering the force exerted by snowball on the car: we can say that this is the action force. Therefore, the force exerted by the car on the snowball is the reaction. Newton's third law states that the two forces are equal in magnitude: therefore, the only correct option can be

C. The force exerted by the car is equal to the force exerted by the snowball. .

Which of the following statements are true?
aleksley [76]

Good conductors of electricity have larger conductivity values than insulators.

A material that obeys Ohm's law reasonably well is called an ohmic conductor or a linear conductor.

The resistance of a conductor is proportional to the conductivity of the material of which the conductor is composed.

Answer: Options 1, 2 and 4.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an article or kind of material that permits the progression of charge in at least one headings. Materials made of metal are basic electrical conduits.

Metals such as copper typify conductors, while most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them. Most atoms hold on to their electrons tightly and are insulators.

In which of these cases do we have enough information to say that the atom is electrically neutral?
Luba_88 [7]
<span>So we want to know when do we have enough information about the atom that we can say that it is electrically neutral. So the information we need to know is the number of protons, whic are positively charged particles and the number of electrons which are negatively charged particles. Number of protons has to be equal to number of electrons for the atom to have neutral charge. Neutrons are electrically neutral so their number doesn't change the charge of the atom. So the correct answer is B. </span>

A car with a mass of 600 kg is traveling at a velocity of 10 m/s. How much kinetic energy does it have? The car has J of kinetic
konstantin123 [22]
The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the mass of the object and v its velocity. 

The car in this problem has a mass of m=600 kg and a velocity of v=10 m/s, therefore if we put these numbers into the equation, we find the kinetic energy of the car:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(600 kg)(10 m/s)^2=30000 J
