3. A train has broken through the wall of a train station. During the collision, what can be said about the force exerted by the

train on the wall?
a. The force exerted by the train on the wall was larger than the force the wall could exert on the train.
b. The wall cannot be said to "exert" a force; after all, it broke.
c. The force exerted by the train on the wall was the same in magnitude as the force exerted by the wall on the train.
d. The force exerted by the train on the wall was less than the force exerted by the wall on the train.

Answer:

c. The force exerted by the train on the wall was the same in magnitude as the force exerted by the wall on the train.

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law states that if a body exerts a force on another body, this body exerts a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the body that produces it. So, one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force in itself.

Which is the correct order of events at a power plant?
GalinKa [24]
The correct answer is A.

A power station works on the principle of boiling water to create steam, which turns a turbine, generating a potential difference in a transformer with the magnets. The transformer is connected to a circuit, which hence induces a current, generating power.

Later research indicated that electric current is actually the flow of ____
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Electrons.

Explanation:

Electricity was discovered before the discovery of electrons by J.J Thompson in 1896. Before the electron, it was thought that it is the positive ions that move through the wire and carry current—that's why today the conventional current represents the flow of positive charges.

After J.J Thompson's discovery of the electrons, it was realized that it is the electrons that actually carry the current through the conductor. But changing the direction of the conventional current didn't seem appropriate, and that's why the convention continues to be used to this day—reminding us that once it were the positive ions that were thought to carry the current.

How does deformation by drawing of a semicrystalline polymer affect its tensile strength?
Elenna [48]
This effect is explained by increased chain entanglements at higher molecular weights. Increasing the degree of crystallinity of a semicrystalline polymer leads to an enhancement of the tensile strength. Deformation by drawing increases the tensile strength of a semicrystalline polymer.
