Newtons first law of motion states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Seat belts and air bags provide the stopping force for the crash test dummies.

Answer:

Newton law of inertia.

Explanation:

Newton first law states that if any object is in the motion or is in the state of rest then it will remain in that state till the external force is applied on that object. Inertia is the main reason of having seat belts and air bags in the car.

In this case, when seat belt trapped into the passenger than passenger experience same state of motion as car has.

When the car experience any kind of the collision then the car will stop abruptly. In this case seat belt and air bag will help in stopping the motion of passenger in the forward direction.

Therefore Newton's law of inertia is illustrated in test with seat belts, crash dummies, and air bags.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

An object has a velocity of 8 m/s and a kinetic energy of 480 j what is the mass of the object
dedylja [7]

We Know,

K.E. = 1/2 mv²

480 = 1/2 (m)(8)²

m = 960/64

m = 15 Kg

So, the mass of the object is 15 Kg

Vesnalui [34]
The only thing you need to know in order to solve this task is that <span>plank length (which is force x), should equal the increase in potential energy, so what we have now : (mass)* g * (height).
It has to look like that:  </span>
<span>F * 3.0 = 150 x 9.81 x 1.20 
Then solve for F, the result should be in newtones = 588N

Do hope it makes sense.</span>
