Answer:

The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal force on object A. Notice that the forces are exerted on different objects.

Answer:

number 1. States that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object moving at a constant velocity will continue moving at a constant velocity, unless it is acted upon by an unbalanced force.

"Also called- the law of inertia"

number 2.acceleration depends on the object's mass and on the net force acting on the object.

number 3.States that if one object exerts a force on another object, then the second object exerts a force of equal strength in the opposite direction on the first object.

"for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction"

How is the motion of an object affected when a force acts on it?

Arada [10]

Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia. When the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can cause an object to accelerate or decelerate. Unbalanced forces can also cause an object to change direction.

A 0.272-kg volleyball approaches a player horizontally with a speed of 12.6 m/s. The player strikes the ball with her fist and c

Nady [450]

(a) +9.30 kg m/s

The impulse exerted on an object is equal to its change in momentum:

$I= \Delta p = m \Delta v = m (v-u)$

where

m is the mass of the object

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity of the object, with

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

For the volleyball in this problem:

m = 0.272 kg

u = -12.6 m/s

v = +21.6 m/s

So the impulse is

$I=(0.272 kg)(21.6 m/s - (-12.6 m/s)=+9.30 kg m/s$

(b) 155 N

The impulse can also be rewritten as

$I=F \Delta t$

where

F is the force exerted on the volleyball (which is equal and opposite to the force exerted by the volleyball on the fist of the player, according to Newton's third law)

$\Delta t$ is the duration of the collision

In this situation, we have

$\Delta t = 0.06 s$

So we can re-arrange the equation to find the magnitude of the average force:

$F=\frac{I}{\Delta t}=\frac{9.30 kg m/s}{0.06 s}=155 N$

Two 125 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car X is moving at 10 m/s and Car Z at −12 m/s when

nignag [31]

<h2>Given that,</h2>

Mass of two bumper cars, m₁ = m₂ = 125 kg

Initial speed of car X is, u₁ = 10 m/s

Initial speed of car Z is, u₂ = -12 m/s

Final speed of car Z, v₂ = 10 m/s

We need to find the final speed of car X after the collision. Let v₁ is its final speed. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as follows :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

v₁ is the final speed of car X.

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2\\\\m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_2v_2\\\\m_1v_1=125\times 10+125\times (-12)-125\times 10\\\\v_1=\dfrac{-1500}{125}\\\\v_1=-12\ m/s$

So, car X will move with a velocity of -12 m/s.

The electric current in a wire is 1.5A. How many electrons flow past a given point in a time of 2s?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.

Explanation:

An electric current is defined as the ratio of the quantity of charge flowing through a conductor to the time taken.

i.e I = $\frac{Q}{t}$ ...................(1)

It is measure in Amperes and can be measured in the laboratory by the use of an ammeter.

In the given question, I = 1.5A, t = 2s, find Q.

From equation 1,

Q = I × t

= 1.5 × 2

= 3.0 Coulombs

The amount of electrons that flow in the given time is 3.0 C.
