A.
Both will be stopped by the same amount of force acting against them.



B.
The one with less mass takes more force to stop.



C.
The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.

A and D are definitely wrong because the two rocks have different masses, so it leaves us with B and C. The most logical answer to the question is
C <span>The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.

A jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds. The jogger starts at the origin and runs in the positive direction
Elis [28]

Answer:

(a) 25 m

(b) 75 m

Explanation:

Given that the jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds.

So, the speed of the jogger,

v=\frac{10}{2}=5m/s\;\cdots(i)

Let d be the distance covered by him in time, t s.

As distance=(speed) x (time)

So, d=vt

From equation (i)

\Rightarrow d=5t\;\cdots(ii)

As the jogger starts from origin, so, the distance, d, also represents the position of the jogger at the time t s.

The position-time graph has been shown.

(a) From equation (ii), for t=5.0 s

d=5\times 5=25 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 25 m from the origin.

(b) Similarly, for t=15.0 s

d=5\times 15=75 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 75 m from the origin.

A very smart 3-year-old child is given a wagon for her birthday. She refuses to use it. "After all," she says, "Newton's third l
natita [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

She's correct but doesn't mean the wagon cannot put into motion. The force that she applied on the wagon, according to Newton's 2nd law, would have generated an acceleration, which translates into motion. The reaction force the wagon applies on her due to Newton's 3rd law, would not hinder its own motion.

krek1111 [17]
The legend is that he discovered gravity when an apple feel on his head. I don’t know what the true story is, but that’s what I’ve heard so maybe A??
Although, I’m pretty sure it could also be C
So... between A and C, however, I don’t want you to get it wrong so I would recommend getting another opinion
