Explanation:

It is known that the relation between force and acceleration is as follows.

                F = -ma ............ (1)

Also,    acceleration (a) = \frac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2s} ......... (2)

The given data is as follows.

                 v = 0,          u = 14 m/s,    s = 1

Therefore, putting the values of expression (2) into expression (1) as follows.

                F = -m \times \frac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2s}

                   = -61 kg \times \frac{(0)^{2} - (14)^{2}}{2 \times 1}

                   = 5978 N

thus, we can conclude that net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys is 5978 N.

An object that has kinetic energy must what ?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

An object that has kinetic energy must be <em>moving</em>.

The formula for an object's kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) · (the object's mass) · <u><em>(the object's speed)²</em></u>

As you can see from the formula, if the object has no speed, then its kinetic energy is zero.  That's why kinetic energy is usually called the "energy of motion", and if an object HAS kinetic energy, then that tells you right away that it must be moving.

What step in the water cycle involves returning of fresh water to the Earth?
7nadin3 [17]

Hi!


Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds. These clouds may produce precipitation, which is the primary route for water to return to the Earth's surface within the water cycle. Condensation is the opposite of evaporation.



Hope this helps!

The main cause of weather is?
allsm [11]

Answer: Weather on Earth is caused by heat from the sun and movement of the air. All weather happens in the lower layer of Earth's atmosphere, which is a layer of gases surrounding Earth. The sun's heat warms the air in this layer to different temperature levels in different places. ... This movement of air is what we call wind.

What is the force of gravity between two 3.0 kg masses 1.0 m apart?
gavmur [86]

m₁ = mass of the first object = 3.0 kg

m₂ = mass of the second object = 3.0 kg

r = distance between the first and second object = 1.0 m

G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

F = force of gravity between the two objects = ?

according to law of gravitation, force of attraction "F" between two objects m₁ and m₂, placed distance "r" apart is given as

F = G m₁ m₂/r²

inserting the values

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹) (3.0) (3.0)/(1.0)²

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹) (9.0)

F = 60.03 x 10⁻¹¹ N

F = 6.003 x 10⁻¹⁰ N

Newton’s 3rd law is also known as the law of
NemiM [27]

Answer:

Action and Reaction

Explanation:

For every force, there is one of equal and opposite also. Think of it this way. When you try to push on a wall, you are applying a force. However, that wall is also pushing back on you with that same force. You can also see this when you high five someone. You can slap as hard as you want to their stationary hand, but due to the 3rd law, you're both going to be left with red hands do to the amount of force applied.
