Compare the acceleration of a small car and a large truck if an equal force is applied to each vehicle.

Physics
1 answer:
tia_tia [17]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Acceleration of truck is smaller as compared to the car

Explanation:

We can use newtons second law to solve this

Net Force = mass × acceleration

With the sane force applied and a larger mass of truck, acceleration of truck would be smaller as compared to the car

Describe scalar and vector quantities. Include a definition and provide at least one example of how they are alike and how they
Lunna [17]

Scalar quantities have only magnitude. example temperature, distance.

Vector quantities have magnitude and direction.Example force, velocity.

You can say "I applied a force p\of 3 newtons to the left" but you can't say I added 32 Fahrenheit to the left

The windshield of a speeding car hits a hovering insect. Consider the time interval from just before the car hits the insect to
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A. False

B True

C. False

D.False

E. True

F. False

G. False

H. False

I. True

Explanation:

A. False: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car.  These are the two bodies involved in the collision.

B. True: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car

C. False: The magnitudes of the change in velocity are different from the car and the bug. The velocity of the bug changes from 0 to the velocity of the car, while there is no noticeable change in the velocity of the car

D.False: There is barely any change in the momentum of the car since the mass of the bug is very small.

E. True: Since the mass of the bug is small, and was initially at rest, the magnitude of the change in monentum will be large because the new velocity will be that of the car.

F. False: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car. Those are the two bodies involved in the collision

G. False: The car barely changes in velocity since the mass of the bug is small.

H. False: The car barely changes in momentum because the collision does not affect its speed so much. on the other hand the momentum change of the bug is large since its mass is small.

I. True: The bug which was initially at rest will begin moving with the velovity of the speeding car, while the car barely changes in its velocity

A train travels 69 kilometers in 3 hours, and then 51 kilometers in 2 hours. What is its average speed? Your Answer: Question 14
tamaranim1 [39]
Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Total distance = 69 km + 51 km = 120 km

Total time = 3 hrs + 2 hrs = 5 hrs

Average speed = (120 km) / (5 hrs) = 24 km/hr
