Answer:

The correct answer is inertia.

Explanation:

The heavy bag of groceries is initially within the inertia frame of the car. This indicates that the heavy bag acquires the same speed as the car.

When the car stops, the heavy bag continues to move forward with the speed it had due to the principle of inertia, which states the property that the bodies cannot modify by themselves the state of rest or movement in which they are.

Have a nice day!

4.A 31-cm long conducting wire of 9-g carrying 7- A current is placed in a uniform magnetic field. What are the strength and dir
Anika [276]

Answer

Given,

Length of the wire,L = 31 cm = 0.31 m

mass of the wire, m = 9 g = 0.009 Kg

Current in the wire,I = 7 A

Magnetic field strength, B= ?

Equating magnetic force to the weight of the wire.

BIL = m g

B=\dfrac{m g}{IL}

B=\dfrac{0.009\times 9.81}{7\times 0.31}

B = 0.0407 T

For Force to be upward magnetic field direction should be outward of the plane of paper.

Do balanced forces change an objects motion
meriva

If the group of all forces acting on an object is balanced,
then the effect of all of them is the same as if there were
no forces at all on the object.  In that case, the object
continues moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
