When the bus starts moving forward, the man stays still, so
he leans back.  When the bus slows down, the man continues
moving forward at constant speed, so he leans forward. 
All of this is a demonstration of the effects of inertia.

a ball of mass 0.5 kg is released from rest at a height of 30 m. how fast is it going when it hits the ground? acceleration due
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

24.25m/s

Explanation:

m = 0.5kg

u ( initial velocity) = 0m/s

v ( final velocity) =?

a = 9.8m/s^2

d (displacement) = 30m

Since u don't have time, u only have the choice to use this formula

V^2 = u^2 + 2ad

V^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 30

V^2 = 588

V = 24.25 m/s

How old is a bone if it still has 50% of its carbon-14 content?
Degger [83]

Answer:

5730 years

Explanation:

The half life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.  If 50% of the carbon-14 remains, then exactly 1 half life has passed.

The half-life equation is:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the remaining amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

In this case, A = ½ A₀ and T = 5730.

½ A₀ = A₀ (½)^(t / 5730)

½ = (½)^(t / 5730)

1 = t / 5730

t = 5730

A 1500 kg car moving with a speed of 20 m/s collides with a utility pole and is brought to rest in 0.30 s. Find the magnitude of
storchak [24]

Answer:

-100000 N.

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and it's acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton(N). The Formula of force is given as,

F = ma ........................... Equation 1

Where F = Average force exerted on the car, m = mass of the car, acceleration of the car, a = acceleration of the car.

a = (v-u)/t..................... Equation 2

Where v = Final velocity, u = Initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t............. Equation 3

Given: m = 1500 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s (brought to rest), t = 0.3 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 1500(0-20)/0.3

F = 1500(-20)/0.3

F = -100000 N.

Note: The negative sign is due to the fact that the force exerted on the car by the pole is equal and opposite the force of the car.

What is potential energy
valkas [14]

Answer:

Potential energy is energy that is stored – or conserved - in an object or substance. This stored energy is based on the position, arrangement or state of the object or substance. You can think of it as energy that has the 'potential' to do work.
