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!

Two equal-magnitude forces are applied to a door at the doorknob. The first force is applied perpendicular to the door, and the
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

in first case the torque is maximum.

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance.

τ = F x d x Sinθ

In case A: the angle between force vector and the distance vector is 90 so torque is

τ = F x d

In case B: the angle between force vector and the distance is 30°.

τ = F x d x Sin30

τ = 0.5 Fd

So the torque is maximum in first case.

Why does Earth's moon have no atmosphere?
Margaret [11]
You can eliminate the answer A because the moon is super cold
For answer B, atmosphere is contained of gasses, not just oxygen alone
Definitely not C 
The answer is D because the moon's gravity isn't strong enough to hold the gasses, as a result, only a small amount of gasses has an attraction to it ( the moon has a little atmosphere though) but not enough to be considered

A stone is thrown from a cliff and lands in the sea. Air resistance is negligible. Which statement is correct whilst the stone i
erik [133]
Since the stone is travelling, the displacement cannot be constant. This leaves the last 2 choices as possibilities. Now consider the acceleration that can act on the stone. Acceleration due to gravity is the only one. That means the horizontal component of the stone has to be constant since there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.
