The law applied here is Newton's first law, also known as, law of inertia.
This law states that: A body will retain its state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an external force.
If you are moving and the bus suddenly stops, your body will lurch forward trying to retain its state of motion until it comes to rest and changes its state by the external force acted on it.
If you are at rest and the bus suddenly moves, your body will lurch backwards trying to retain its state of rest and opposing the force of motion until it is forced to change its state by this force.
Answer:
Final momentum after a head on collision is -2kgm/s
Explanation:
One ball moves to the right and the other moves opposite and momentum is a vector quantity so that considering the direction
Initial momenta are P₁=2x3=6kgm/s P₂=4x(-2)=-8kgm/s
Final momentum is the vector sum of P(final)= 6-8= -2 kgm/s
<span>The Appalachian Mountains were formed when colliding tectonic plates folded and upthrust, mainly during the Permian Period and again in the Cretaceous Period. The folds and thrusts were then eroded and carved by wind, streams and glaciers. These erosive processes are ongoing, and the topography of the Appalachian Mountains continue to change. They have changed with the miles of land that are cleared of all vegetation and topsoil. In the 1970's coal miners literally blow away the top of a mountain to get to the coal underneath.</span>
Answer:
8.97 Watt
Explanation:
Resistance, R = 20 ohm
Inductance, L = 10 mH
V(t) = 20 Cos (1000 t + 45°)
Compare with the standard equation
V(t) = Vo Cos(ωt + Ф)
Ф = 45°
ω = 1000 rad/s
Vo = 20 V
Inductive reactance, XL = ωL = 1000 x 0.01 = 10 ohm
impedance is Z.
Z = 22.36 ohm
Apparent power is given by
P = Vrms x Irms
P = 14.144 x 0.634
P = 8.97 Watt
Answer: current I = 0.96 Ampere
Explanation:
Given that the
Resistance R = 60 Ω
Power = 55 W
Power is the product of current and voltage. That is
P = IV ...... (1)
But voltage V = IR. From ohms law.
Substitutes V in equation (1) power is now
P = I^2R
Substitute the above parameters into the formula to get current I
55 = 60 × I^2
Make I^2 the subject of formula
I^2 = 55/60
I^2 = 0.92
I = sqr(0.92)
I = 0.957 A
Therefore, 0.96 A current must be applied.
