Answer:

Because of inertia (Newton's First Law of motion)

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will tend to stay at rest (or tend to keep moving with same velocity) unless acted upon an unbalanced force"

In this problem, the object we are analyzing is the coffee cup.

At the beginning, the cup is at rest, together with the car.

Later, the car starts moving when the light turns green.

If we apply Newton's First Law of motion to the cup, we see that the coffee cup tends to keep its state of rest: for this reason, as the car moves forward, the coffee in the cup will spill backward, into the rear seat. This property of an object to mantain its state of motion is also called as inertia.

What is the calculation for elastic potential?
grin007 [14]
Elastic potential energy is equal to the force times the distance of movement. Elastic potential energy = force x distance of displacement. Because the force is = spring constant x displacement, then the Elastic potential energy = spring constant x displacement squared.

How can isotopes of a given element be identified?​
marin [14]

Answer: All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom. ... Each atomic number identifies a specific element, but not the isotope; an atom of a given element may have a wide range in its number of neutrons.

Explanation: Hopefully this helps. Have a great day.

Answer:

R= 5.4 ohms

Explanation:

Given that

V= 9 V

Power ,P= 15 W

Lets take resistor resistance = R

We know that Power given as

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

V=Voltage

P=Power

R=Resistance

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}

Now by putting the all the values in the above equation

R=\dfrac{9^2}{15}

R= 5.4 ohms

Therefore the resistance of the resister will be 5.4 ohms.
