HELP: When Jane drives to work, she always places her purse on the passenger's seat. By the time she gets to work, her purse has

fallen on the floor in front of the passenger seat. One day, she asks you to explain why this happens in terms of physics. What do you say?

a force is a push or pull that acts upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object.  Newtons third law of motion suggests that something standing still will stay that way until another force pushes it.  This applies to Janes bag.  Every time Jane hits the brakes in her car, her bag will move forward until it finally falls off the seat.

Take the mechanical equivalent of heat as 4 J/cal. A 10-g bullet moving at 2000 m/s plunges
klasskru [66]

Assuming that all the bullet’s energy heats the paraffin, its final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the material.

The energy of the bullet E = 1/2 mv²

E = 1/2 x 10 x 10⁻³ x (2000)²

E = 2 x 10⁴ J

This heat is used in heating the paraffin

E = m x c ΔT = m x c (Tfinal -Tinitial)

2 x 10⁴ J = 1 x 2.8 x 10³ x (Tfinal -20)

Tfinal = 27.1°C

Thus, the final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

Where is the most and the least KENETIC ENERGY
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Where is kinetic energy the least?, and most?

Explanation:

Least : When the Moon is farthest from Earth in its nearly elliptical orbit, its speed is least. Its kinetic energy has become least, and its potential energy is greatest.

Further : Kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. If work, which transfers energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object speeds up and thereby gains kinetic energy.

May be different for you, but i really hope I helped out.

Ask Your Teacher Two long, straight wires are parallel and 11 cm apart. One carries a current of 2.9 A, the other a current of 5
dsp73

Answer:

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is away from one another

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is towards each other.

Explanation:

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ N/A^2

i_1 = Current in first wire = 2.9 A

i_2 = Current in second wire = 5.3 A

r = Gap between the wires = 11 cm

Force per unit length

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu_0 i_1i_2}{2\pi r}\\ =\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.9\times 5.3}{2\pi 0.11}\\ =2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is away from one another

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu_0 i_1i_2}{2\pi r}\\ =\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.9\times 5.3}{2\pi 0.11}\\ =2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N

The magnitude of force per unit length of one wire on the other is 2.7945\times 10^{-5}\ N and the direction is towards each other.
