The answer is d. Inertia
According to Newton's first law of motion, every body continues to be in a state of rest or of uniform motion unless an external force acts upon it. This is called inertia; the tendency of an object to resist change.
So when the car makes a sharp left turn, the passengers seem to move towards the right side of the car because the passengers continue to maintain the straight line path ahead along which the car was moving before taking the turn

Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. A box contains shirts in two different colors and two different sizes. The nu
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

P( red | large shirt ) ≠ P( large shirt)

P( Blue | large shirt ) = P( blue shirt)

P( shirt is medium and blue ) ≠ P( medium  shirt)

P( large shirt | red shirt ) ≠ P( red shirt)

Explanation:

P( red | large shirt ) = 42/77 = 0.5454 : P( large shirt)= 77/165 = 0.467

P( red | large shirt ) ≠ P( large shirt)

P( Blue | large shirt ) = 35/77 = 0.4545 : P( blue shirt)= 75/165 = 0.4545

   P( Blue | large shirt ) = P( blue shirt)

P( Shirt is medium and blue ) = 40/77 = 0.2424   : P( medium shirt)= 88/165 = 0.5333

P( shirt is medium and blue ) ≠ P( medium  shirt)

P( large shirt | red shirt) = 42/90 = 0.4667 : P( red shirt)= 90/165 = 0.5454

P( large shirt | red shirt ) ≠ P( red shirt)

Two balls of equal size are dropped from the same height from the roof of a building. One ball has twice the mass of the other.
frutty [35]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the more massive ball is greater by a factor of 2.

Explanation:

By conservation of energy, we know that the initial energy = final energy. At first, the balls are dropped from a height with no initial velocity so their initial energy is all potential energy. When they reach the bottom, all their energy is kinetic energy. So all of their energy is changed from potential to kinetic energy. This means that the ball with greater potential energy will have a greater kinetic energy.

Potential energy = mgh. Since g = gravity is a constant and h = height is the same, the only difference is mass. Since mass is directly proportional to potential energy, the greater the mass, the greater the potential energy, so the more massive ball has a greater initial potential energy and will have a greater kinetic energy at the bottom.

Additionally, let B1 = lighter ball with mass m and let B2 = heavier ball with mass m2. Since we know that intial potential energy = final kinetic energy. We can rewrite it as potential energy = kinetic energy = mass * gravity constant * height. For B1, it is mgh and for B2 it is 2mgh, so B2's kinetic energy is twice that of B1.

PLS ANSWERRR What are the main differences between the carbon flows 300 years ago and today?
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

reservoirs and flows of the carbon cycle and how human activities

explication :

Today, the carbon cycle is changing. Humans are moving more carbon into the atmosphere from other parts of the Earth system. More carbon is moving to the atmosphere when fossil fuels, like coal and oil, are burned. More carbon is moving to the atmosphere as humans get rid of forests by burning the trees.
