How does a seat belt stop your body from moving in a forward motion in a car?

Physics

5 0
D, when a moving car suddenly stops, your body is still moving forward until the seatbelt stops you.

When things move, there is always friction. It's what makes cars move in the first place. The inside of the car doesn't move, however the wheels on the car are moving at a rapid pace. When the car stops violently, everything inside the car is thrown. The seat belt acts as a safety precaution if an accident happens.

Give an example of how electrical energy and thermal energy are connected.
mafiozo [28]
A toaster draws electric current (electrical energy) from a wall outlet and converts these moving electric charges into heat (thermal energy) in the filaments that turn red hot to cook your toast. ... As electricity runs through the filaments in a space heater, the electrical energy is converted into heat (thermal energy).

Which of the following would produce the most power?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds.

Explanation:

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

But Energy = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have

Power = \frac {mgh}{time}

Given the following data;

Mass = 10kg

Height = 10m

Time = 5 seconds

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s²

Power = \frac {10*9.8*10}{5} = 490 Watts

Hence, a mass of 10 kilograms lifted 10 meters in 5 seconds would produce the most power.

18. Compared to its weight on Earth, a 5 kg object on the moon will weigh A. the same amount. B. less. C. more.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

B. less

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s²

acceleration due to gravity on Moon, g = 1.6 m/s²

Given mass of the object as, m = 5 kg

Weight of an object is given as, W = mg

                                                         

Weight of the object on Earth, W = 5 x 9.8 = 49 N

Weight of the object on Moon, W = 5 x 1.6 = 8 N

Therefore, the object weighs less on the moon compared to its weight on Earth.

The correct option is "B. less"
