The three types of stress that act on Earth's rocks are compression, tension and shear. Among all the options that are given in the question, the correct option is option "D". These kind of stress action creates the rocks to break in a natural way. The earth's rocks sometimes collide with one another, pull apart from each other and sometimes slide against each other. Whenever two rocks collide with each other, they create a compression force. When the two rocks of the earth tries to pull away from each other, it creates a tension force. The sliding of two earth's rocks creates a shearing force.

A 1560-kilogram truck moving with a speed of 28.0 m/s runs into the rear end of a 1070-kilogram stationary car. If the collision

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Δ KE = 249158.6 kJ

Explanation:

given data

Truck mass M = 1560 Kg

Truck initial speed, u = 28 m/s

mass of car m = 1070 Kg

initial speed of car u1 = 0 m/s

solution

first we get here final speed by using conservation of momentum that is express as

Mu = (M+m) V .......................1

put here value we get

1560 × 28 = (1560 + 1070 ) V

solve it we get

final speed V = 16.60 m/s

and

Change in kinetic energy will be here

Δ KE = $\frac{1}{2} Mu^2 - \frac{1}{2}(M+m)V^2$ .................2

put here value and we get

Δ KE = $\frac{1}{2}\times 1560\times 28^2 - \frac{1}{2}\times (1560 + 1070)\times 16.60^2$

solve it we get

Δ KE = 249158.6 kJ

Newton’s second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?

Helen [10]

Answer:

A. Mass and acceleration

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum
Therefore; F = ma , where F is the resultant force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration of the body.
<u>Resultant force depends on the acceleration and the mass of a body in motion, an increase in acceleration causes a corresponding increase in resultant force.</u> A body with higher mass will have a larger strong force if the acceleration is kept constant.

RideAnS [48]

Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.
