If only an external force can change the velocity of a body, how can the internal force of the brakes bring a car to rest? 1. It

is the driver, not the car itself who causes the breaking, so it is an external force. 2. The engine is stopped, so the car has no force to run further. 3. Some internal forces can change the velocity of a body. 4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.

Answer:

4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.

Explanation:

If there is no friction between the road and the tires, the car won't stop.

You can see this, for example, when there is ice on the road. You can still apply the brakes (internal force), but since there is no friction (external force) the car won't stop.

The force of the brakes on the wheels is not what makes the car stop, it is the friction of the road against still tires that makes it stop.

You place a 0.17 kg can of soup and a 0.31 kg jar of pickles on the kitchen counter, separated by a distance of 0.42 m. What is
tangare [24]

1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { is the force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles. }

<u>Explanation</u>:

According to Newton's third law that each force has an equal and opposite reaction force in this case both of the jars will exert the same force an each other

. The force is given by

\mathrm{F}=\frac{G \times M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where, F = force, G=\text { gravitational constant }=\left(6.67 \times 10^{-11}\right), mass \left(\mathrm{M}_{1}\right)=0.17 \mathrm{kg}, mass \left M_{2}= 0.31 \mathrm{kg} and Distance(r) = 0.42 m.

Substitute the values in the formula.

\mathrm{F}=\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 0.17 \times 0.31}{0.42^{2}}

\mathrm{F}=\frac{3.51 \times 10^{-12}}{0.176}

\mathrm{F}=1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N}

\text { The force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles is } 1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { . }

If a quasar is moving away from us at v/c = 0.8, what is the measured redshift?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The measured redshift is z =2

Explanation:

Since the object is traveling near light speed, since v/c = 0.8, then we have to use a redshift formula for relativistic speeds.

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{c+v}{c-v}}-1

Finding the redshift.

We can prepare the formula by dividing by lightspeed inside the square root to both numerator and denominator to get

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1+\cfrac vc}{1-\cfrac vc}}-1

Replacing the given information

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1+0.8}{1-0.8}}-1

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1.8}{0.2}}-1\\z= \sqrt{9}}-1\\z=3-1\\z=2

Thus the measured redshift is z = 2.
