Answer:

An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it

Explanation:

This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of  inertia.

It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore

- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it

- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it

This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).

A car travelling at a constant speed of 70km/h passes a stationary police car. The police car immediately goes on the chase acce
Virty [35]

Answer:

18.24 seconds

Explanation:

First you convert the km/h to m/s, 70km/h=(175/9)m/s,85km/h=(425/18)m/s.

You know it took 10 seconds for the police to reach 85 km/h. Calculate the distance that the car is ahead of the police (175/9)*10=1750/9m. Then by divide 1750/9 with 425/18, you will get the value 8.24. Add the 10 seconds with the 8.24 you will get 18.24 sec which is the total time.
