According to Newton's second law, the force applied to an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

where F is the magnitude of the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.
In this problem, the object is the insect, with mass

. The acceleration of the insect is

, therefore we can calculate the force exerted by the car on the insect:

How do we find the force exerted by the insect on the car?
According to Newton's third law (known as action-reaction law), when an object A exerts a force on an object B, object B also exerts a force equal and opposite on object A. Therefore, the force exerted by the insect on the car is equal to the force exerted by the car on the object, so it is 0.01 N.
Answer and Explanation:
This experiment is known as Lenz's tube.
The Lenz tube is an experiment that shows how you can brake a magnetic dipole that goes down a tube that conducts electric current. The magnet, when falling, along with its magnetic field, will generate variations in the magnetic field flux within the tube. These variations create an emf induced according to Faraday's Law:

This emf induced on the surface of the tube generates a current within it according to Ohm's Law:

This emf and current oppose the flux change, therefore a field will be produced in such a direction that the magnet is repelled from below and is attracted from above. The magnitude of the flux at the bottom of the magnet increases from the point of view of the tube, and at the top it decreases. Therefore, two "magnets" are generated under and above the dipole, which repel it below and attract above. Finally, the dipole feels a force in the opposite direction to the direction of fall, therefore it falls with less speed.
The particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.
The given parameters;
- <em>initial energy of the particles = E₁</em>
- <em>final energy of the particles, E₂ = 0.33E₁</em>
The movement of the particles depends on the kinetic energy of the particles.
When kinetic energy of the particles is 100%, the particles can oscillate from x₁ to x₅.
However, when the total energy of this particles is reduced to one-third (¹/₃) or 33% of the initial energy of the particle, the oscillation of the particles will be reduced.
- The maximum position the particle can oscillate is x₅
- The half position the particles can oscillate is x₃
Since 33% is less than the half of the energy of the particle, the particle will oscillate between x₁ and x₂.
Thus, we can conclude that the particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

The correct answer is C. 1995
Explanation:
The graph shows the changes in the harvest of Atlantic cod. In general, this graph illustrates how the peak occurred in the 1980s but then there was a sudden and sharp decline in 1995. Indeed, 1995 is the year with the lowest number of harvested cod as in this year there were approximately least than 10 thousand metric tonnes of cods. Also, this year shows the collapse of fishing stocks or that the population of this fish collapsed, which made it impossible to harvest as many fish as in previous years. According to this, the year that shows the collapse of fishing stocks is 1995.
