If a car stops suddenly, you feel "thrown forward." We’d like to understand what happens to the passengers as a car stops. Imagi

ne yourself sitting on a very slippery bench inside a car. This bench has no friction, no seat back, and there’s nothing for you to hold onto.(a) identify all of the forces action on you as thecar travels at a perfectly steady speed on level ground.(b) repeat part A with the car slowing down(c) describe what happens to you as the car slowsdown(d) suppose now that the bench is not slippery. as the carslows down, you stay on the bench and dont slide off. what force isresponsible for you deceleration?

<h2>A)</h2>

The forces acting on you are:

  • The gravitational pull of the Earth (an others Celestial objects)
  • The Normal Force that balance the gravitational pull and points upward.

That is. There is not need for any other force, cause the car its going at constant speed, so the acceleration its zero, as the net force its mass multiplied by acceleration, the net force is zero.

<h3>B)</h3>

The forces acting on you are:

  • The gravitational pull of the Earth (an others Celestial objects)
  • The Normal Force that balance the gravitational pull and points upward.

That is. Again. The car its slowing down. But, it cant apply a force in you against the direction of movement to slow you down.

<h3>C)</h3>

As you can't be slowed down, you will go forward at the same speed you had when the car went steady, and will crash against whatever its in front of you.

D)

The friction force, will pull you against the direction of movement, and slow you down will the car slows down.

The pressure on a balloon holding 356 mL of an ideal gas is increased from 267 torr to 1.00 atm. What is the new volume of the b
Natalija [7]

Answer:

124.52 mL

Explanation:

from Boyle's Law,

PV = P'V' ................... Equation 1

Where P = Initial pressure of the gas, V = Initial volume of the gas, P' = Final pressure of the gas, V' = Final volume of the gas.

make V' the subject of the equation.

V' = PV/P'............. Equation 2

Given: P = 267 torr = (267×0.00131) = 0.34977 atm, V = 356 mL, P' = 1 atm

Substitute into equation 2

V' = (0.34977×356)/1

V' = 124.52 mL.

Hence the new volume of the balloon = 124.52 mL

Answer plzz<br>How do we apply Interval Training to our lower body for a workout?
weqwewe [10]
Interval training is simply alternating short bursts (about 30 seconds) of intense activity with longer intervals (about 1 to 2 minutes) of less intense activity. For instance, if your exercise is walking and you're in good shape, you might add short bursts of jogging into your regular brisk walks.

A student notices that an inflated balloon gets larger when it is warmed by a lamp. Which best describes the mass of the balloon
nirvana33 [79]
It gets larger because
well let me give you an example
so today in class we looked at a lava lamp with wax inside and there was a lightbulb at the bottom.
we watched as the wax floated up because the molecules inside the wax spreads out and makes the wax less dense.
the wax floats up because (which is related to the balloon getting bigger) the wax is getting less dense and the particles get bigger which ALSO makes the wax less dense.
hope this helps and hope you can relate it to your problem! say thanks if I did help AT ALL! :)
