At a given instant of time, a car and a truck are traveling side by side in adjacent lanes of a highway. The car has a greater v

elocity than the truck. Does the car necessarily have a greater acceleration? Explain.

Answer:

NO.

Explanation:

No, It does not mean that the acceleration of the car will be higher.

The car and the truck are moving in the same direction but may have any value of acceleration. Higher velocity of car cannot imply higher acceleration. Acceleration is change in velocity to the change in time. Even if the velocity of car is higher it does not mean its change in velocity will be higher.

Satuarated solution changes into unsatuarated by heating give reason​
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Due to application of heat on a saturated solution, the interparticle space increases due to increase in the kinetic energy of the particles which allows more solutes to dissolve in the solution thereby making it unsaturated.

What does the force of gravity between two objects depend on?
lawyer [7]

-- The equal, mutual forces of gravity between two objects depend on the product
of the two masses ... it doesn't matter whether the masses are equal or there's
one huge mass and one minuscule mass. It's the product that counts.

-- The force also depends on the distance between the centers of the two objects.

Calculate the equivalent resistance for both circuits.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Series equivalent resistance: R_{eq} = 6  \Omega

Parallel equivalent resistance: R_{eq}=14\Omega

Explanation:

The equivalent resistance in series circuit is calculated as

R_{eq} = R_{1} + R_{2}

R_{eq} = 2 + 4

R_{eq} = 6  \Omega

The equivalent resistance in parallel circuit is calculated as

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}

Which can be simplified to

R_{eq}=\frac{R_{1}\times R_{2}}{R_{1}+R_{2}}

R_{eq}=\frac{21\times 42}{21+42}

R_{eq}=14\Omega

The parallel circuit has the higher equivalent resistance as compared to series circuit.
