A smallish SUV of mass 750kg runs into the back of my subcompact 400kg car at 2 m/s while I am stopped at an intersection. He sm

ooshes my bumper and attaches to me: 2 seconds later we come to a stop. (a)Is this an elastic or inelastic collision? Is it reversible or irreversible? Is it a conservative or non-conservative? (b)Let's assume no external forces act on the system of the two automobiles during the collision, which is usually a pretty good assumption. Find the final velocity of the combined lump of cars immediately after the collision. (c) Just to review, what is the average acceleration of the lump of automobiles from immediately after the collision to when it stops 2 seconds later? How far does the lump travel before it stops? (d) What is the energy dissipated from the collision in the two-car system? Where did all that energy go(that is, what is the physically observable evidence of what that extra energy went into doing)?

A circuit is built based on this circuit diagram. What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
The three resistors are connected to the same points of the circuit, so they are in parallel configuration. The equivalent resistance of 3 resistors in parallel is given by:
\frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}
If we plug the values of the resistances into the formula, we find
\frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{3.0 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{6.0 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{9.0 \Omega}= \frac{6+3+2}{18.0 \Omega} = \frac{11}{18.0 \Omega}
From which we find the equivalent resistance:
R_{eq} =  \frac{18.0}{11} \Omega =1.6 \Omega

So, the correct answer is B.

How much force do you push down on the Earth with? (Hint: 1kg is about 2 pounds).​
Gennadij [26K]

Answer: 100lbs

Explanation: The Earth pushes you down at 100lbs, so you push down the earth by 100lbs which is enough to keep you firmly attached to the ground and not allow you to jump more than a couple of feet.

Suppose there is a large amount of (weakly interacting) dark matter between us and a distant galaxy. How will this affect our vi
leonid [27]

Answer:

Dark matter does not affect our view, humans can see through them.

Explanation:

They do not affect our view because we can see right through the (weakly interacting) dark matter, as they do not interact or interfere with electromagnetic force.

Dark matter are often invisible substances and are difficult to spot because they don't absorb or reflect light.
