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.
Where they slide over each other.
Transform boundaries are formed or occur when two plates slide past each other in a sideways motion. They do not tear or crunch into each other (but the rock in between them may be ground up) and therefore none of the spectacular features are seen such as occur in divergent and convergent boundaries.
In a transform boundary, neither plate is added to at the boundary nor destroyed. They are marked in some places by features like stream beds that have been split in half and the two halves moved in opposite directions.
We are given the mass of an <span>aluminum sculpture which is 145 kg and a horizontal force equal to 668 Newtons. The coefficient of friction can be determined by dividing the horizontal force by the weight of the object. In this case, 668 N / 145 * 9.8 equal to coeff of friction of 0.47</span>
Answer:
B
Explanation:
<em>A. His speed is 0 m/s
</em>
<em>B. His velocity is 12 m/s
</em>
<em>C. His velocity is 0 m/s
</em>
<em>D. His acceleration is 12 m/s</em>
Total distance traveled by John = 120 + 120 = 240 meters
Total time taken by John to cover the distance = 10 + 10 = 20 s
<em>Average speed of John = total distance traveled/total time taken</em>
= 240/20 = 12 m/s
Hence, the average speed/velocity of John throughout the journey is 12 m/s.
The correct option is B.
