Newton's third law tells us that for every force there is an equal and opposite force.  This means that if Anna exerts a force of 20 Newtons on the box, the box exerts a force of 20 Newtons on Anna.

Answer:

The magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna is 20 newtons.

Explanation:

It is given that, Anna needs to move a box of paperback books across the room. If she applies a force of 20 newtons to the box. We need to find the magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna.

The force exerted by the box on Anna is 20 newtons but it acts in the opposite direction as per Newton's third law of motion. The third law of motion explains the impact of forces i.e. action and reaction force.

So, the magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna is also 20 newtons. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

All

Explanation:

I'm not sure what you meant but Newton's third law which basically states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction applies to <em>all</em> objects. So I think the answer is all.

When driving at night, only use your high-beam headlights___
zzz [600]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

While answer C may sound correct, Answer B is makes more sense. We know you cant use High-beam lights when u cant see ongoing traffic because it could affect the other driver coming across from you. Its good to use it when legal and safe, but in that term I still don't believe there's no reason for HIGH-beamed. That's this leaves B, when you are on u lighted streets.

What is an unbalanced force
Butoxors [25]
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".

If all of the forces acting on an object all add up to zero, then we say that
<span>the group </span>of forces is balanced.  When that happens, the group of forces
has the same effect on the object as if there were no forces on it at all. 

An example: 
Two people with exactly equal strength are having a tug-of-war.  They pull
with equal force in opposite directions.  Each person is sweating and straining,
grunting and groaning, and exerting tremendous force.  But their forces add up
to zero, and the rope goes nowhere.  The <u>group</u> of forces on the rope is balanced.

On the other hand, if one of the offensive linemen is pulling on one end of
the rope, and one of the cheerleaders is pulling on the other end, then their
forces don't add up to zero, because even though they're opposite, they're
not equal.  The <u>group</u> of forces is <u>unbalanced</u>, and the rope moves.

A group of forces is either balanced or unbalanced.  A single force isn't.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

She can consider using agricultural waste or dried dung.

Explanation:

No doubt, biomass has become a crucial source of energy to the society, with almost 90% of the households in rural area now relying on biomass for energy. Biomass has become a great option for household heating and cooking. It is locally available and abundant. It is a clean type of fuel, unlike fossil fuels and it somehow helps in cleaning our environment as it traps carbondioxide. Some common types of biomass include dried dung, agricultural waste, or even charcoal.

Two cars A and B are moving with velocities 20 m/s and 15 m/s in the direction east and west respectively. If
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

<u>Distance</u><u> </u><u>between</u><u> </u><u>them</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u>,</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>meters</u><u>.</u>

Explanation:

Consinder car A:

{ \bf{distance =  speed \times time }}

substitute:

distance = 20 \times (2 \times 60) \\  = 2400 \: m

Consider car B:

distance = 15 \times (2 \times 60) \\  = 1800 \: m

since these cars move in opposite directions, distance between them is their summation:

distance \: between = { \sum(distance \: of \: each \: car)} \\  = 2400 + 1800 \\  = 4200 \: m
