Safety belts protect people in cars in the event of an accident because, according to Newton’s laws of motion, when an impact ca

uses the car to suddenly change its motion -
A.the speed of the people always increases, since now they have not one but two forces acting on them.
B.the speed of the car always increases, giving it greater force since the mass will remain the same.
C.the car now has a greater overall mass - its own mass plus the mass of the object by which it has been struck.
D.the people in the car will continue to move in the same direction and at the same speed as before the impact.

Calculate the displacement of an object at 2.0 seconds when thrown straight up with an
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

<h3>30m</h3>

Explanation:

Velocity is the change of rate of displacement with respect to time.

velocity = displacement/time

Given

initial velocity = 15 m/s.

time taken =2 secs

Required

Displacement of the object

From the formula;

Displacement = Velocity * time

Displacement = 15 * 2

Displacement = 30m

<em>Hence the displacement of the object is 30m</em>
