Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy m_b=70.9\ kg

mass of girl m_g=43.2\ kg

speed of girl after push v_g=4.64\ m/s

Suppose speed of boy after push is v_b

initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved

P_i=P=f

0=m_b\cdot v_b+m_g\cdot v_g

v_b=-\frac{m_g}{m_b}\times v_g

v_b=-\frac{43.2}{70.9}\times 4.64  

v_b=-2.82\ m/s

i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west

Which of these is most likely consequence of failing petroleum prices
melisa1 [442]

More sales of traditional, large cars are the most likely consequence of falling petroleum prices.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Since the majority of conventional, large cars employ combustion engines, these engines need petroleum fuel to operate.

As a result, <em>Choice C—more sales of conventional, large cars</em>—is one of the effects of dropping oil prices that is most likely to occur.

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.
