Complete Question: A horse pulls a cart along a flat road. Consider the following four forces that arise in this situation. (1) the force of the horse pulling on the cart (2) the force of the cart pulling on the horse (3) the force of the horse pushing on the road (4) the force of the road pushing on the horse Suppose that the horse and cart have started from rest; and as time goes on, their speed increases in the same direction. Which one of the following conclusions is correct concerning the magnitudes of the forces mentioned above?

A) Force 1 exceeds force 2.

B) Force 2 is less than force 3.

C) Force 2 exceeds force 4.

D) Force 3 exceeds force 4.

E) Forces 1 and 2 cannot have equal magnitudes.

Answer: B) Force 2 is less than force 3.

Explanation: From the given four forces to be considered, Force 2 is less than Force 3 is correct option.

After evaluating the forces one by one. Force 3 and Force 4 are the same, both have equal magnitude.

And Force 3 is greater than Force 2, i.e., the force of the horse pushing on the road is much higher than the cart pulling the horse. Hence, more forces is required to pull the cart while on the road towards forward direction.

More so, the force of the road pushing on the horse is greater than the force of the cart pulling on the horse.

Which form of emission is commonly not written in nuclear equations because they do not affect charges, atomic numbers, or mass
salantis [7]

Answer:

Gamma radiation .

Explanation:

Three types of emission result at the time of nuclear emission .

alpha emission

Beta emission

Gamma radiation emission

Gamma radiation results in the emission of gamma ray . This is a very high frequency radiation . It is not a particle having charge and mass like alpha and beta emission . So it has no effect on the mass and charge of the product that is formed after gamma radiation . The only effect it has on the product is that it reduces the kinetic energy of the emitting particles or it reduces the internal energy of the product . It causes negligible change in the mass of the product and no change in the charge of the product.

That is why , generally this product is not written in the nuclear reaction .

Flauer [41]

Answer: The correct answer is 1800 meters

Explanation: The velocity is equal to distance over time. Thus the formula for distance is d=vt

And 1minute = 60 seconds

d= 30m/s×60s

d= 1800m

When the temperature of air increases the wave length of a sound wave
solmaris [256]

If temperature T increases , speed of sound v also increases , now by , λ=v/f , as v increases , λ (wavelength) will increase . Frequency is characterised by the source of sound hence it is not affected by temperature , and as T=1/f , so time period also doesn't change.
