Answer:
B. The truck and mosquito exert the same size force on each other.
Explanation:
Newton's third law (law of action-reaction) states that
"When an object A exerts a force (action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"
In this case, we can call
object A = the truck
object B = the mosquito
Thereforce according to Newton's third law, the force exerted by the truck on the mosquito is equal in magnitude to the force exerted by the mosquito on the truck (and in opposite direction).
The reason for which the mosquito will experience much more damage is the fact that the mosquito's mass is much smaller than the truck's mass, and since the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass:
the mosquito will experience a much larger deceleration than the truck, therefore much more damage.
Answer:
Winner wins by 0.969 s
Explanation:
For the Porche:
Given:
Displacement of Porsche s = 400 m
Acceleration of Porsche a = 3.4 m/s^2
From Newton's second equation of motion,
(u = 0 as the car was initially at rest)
Substituting the values into the equation, we have
= 235.29 / 3.4
t = 15.33 s
For the Honda:
Displacement of Honda = 310 m
Acceleration of Honda = 3 m/s^2
Applying Newton's second equation of motion
(u = 0 for same reason)
Substituting the values into the equation, we obtain
= 620 / 3
t = 14.37 s
Hence
The winner (honda) wins by a time interval of = 15.33 - 14.37
=0.969 s
