Answer:

Small sports car.

Explanation:

Lets take

mass of the small car = m

mass of the truck = M

As we know that when car collide with the massive truck then due to change in the moment of the car both car as well as truck will feel force.We also know that from Third law of Newton's ,it states that every action have it reaction with same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

Therefore

F = m a

a=Acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

F= M a'

a'=Acceleration of the massive truck

a'=\dfrac{F}{M}

Here given that M > m that is why a > a'

Therefore car will experiences more acceleration.

The spectra of most stars are dark-line spectra because ________.
pav-90 [236]
Because dark line spectra result from passing white light through ionized gasses and plasmas, which is what the atmosphere of stars are made of.  These frequencies are scattered by the star's atmosphere as it leaves the surface (photosphere) of the star, and don't make it to earth.

Daltons theory was identified using
Margaret [11]
<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Dalton’s theory can be classified by the following hypotheses:

1) All material was formed of particles, unbreakable and strong construction segments.

2) All particles of a given component are indistinguishable in volume and characteristics

3) Compounds are determined by a mixture of two or more distinct kinds of atoms.

4) Chemical responses appeared in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms.

This theory was to explain all matter in terms of atoms and their characteristics, the law of conservation of volume and the law of constant composition.

nadya68 [22]

The gravitation force is 1/6 that of earth, and the ice in the same soft drink would float with 9/10 submerged option (B) is correct.

<h3>What is gravitational force?</h3>

All mass-bearing objects are attracted by gravitational force. Because it consistently attempts to bring masses together rather than push them apart, the gravitational force is referred to as attractive.

As we know, the gravitational force is given by:

\rm F = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G is the gravitational constant.

m1 and m2 are masses.

r is the distance between the masses.

Weight of ice cube = weight of soft drink displaced

mg = ρVg

m = ρV

g does not affect astronauts on earth in a lunar module.

Thus, the gravitation force is 1/6 that of earth, and the ice in the same soft drink would float with 9/10 submerged option (B) is correct.

An astronaut on Earth notes that in her soft drink an ice cube floats with 9/10 of its volume submerged. If she were instead in a lunar module parked on the Moon where the gravitation force is 1/6 that of Earth, the ice in the same soft drink would float:A) with more than 9/10 submerged. B) with 9/10 submerged.C) with 6/10 submerged.D) totally submerged.
