Newton's law of inertia says that an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion. The coffee was moving the same speed as the car and continued to do so even after the car itself had stopped.

What do we mean when we say that 50 million tons of coal could replace the use of 0.6 MBPD (million barrels per day) of oil used
ololo11 [35]
<span>This statement simply implies that the 50 million tons of coal will produce the same energy output in one year as the 0.6 million barrels per day of oil. Assuming coal is more plentiful than oil, this is significant as 50 million tons is much smaller than 219 million barrels of oil.</span>

What is the magnitude of the force that is exerted on a 20 kg mass to give it an acceleration of 10.0
ANEK [815]

Answer:Mass of the body = 20 kg.

Final Velocity = 5.8 m/s.

Initial velocity = 0

Time = 3 seconds.  

Using the Formula,  

Acceleration = (v - u)/ t

= (5.8 - 0)/ 3

= 1.6 m /s².

Now, Using the Formula,  

Force = mass × acceleration

= 20 × 1.6

=

Which will have a larger momentum when moving at the same speed: a 2,000-kg truck or a 1,000-kg sedan
Alina [70]

Answer:

2000 kg

Explanation:

Given that Which will have a larger momentum when moving at the same speed: a 2,000-kg truck or a 1,000-kg sedan

According to the definition of momentum, momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

That is,

Momentum = mass × velocity

Since velocity or speed is the same, then, the one of higher mass will have a greater momentum.

Therefore, the 2000 kg truck will have the greater momentum.
