A.

Newton's first law. When the bus starts, Shelly is still at rest so she resists motion. (When the bus stops, she'll jolt forward)

Answer: A. The inertia of Shelly

Explanation:

We know from Newton's first law that an object does not changes its state of rest or motion until an unbalanced external force exerts on it. This is also known as law of inertia. Initially Shelly and school bus are in rest state. when the driver starts the school bus and moves forward, Shelly experiences a backward jolt. This is because initially Shelly was in rest state but the bus started moving so she would feel a backward pseudo force.

Vlad [161]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Since the apple is 641kg/m3 and water is 1000kg/m3 then the apple will float. Light materials float on top of the water similar to how oil is always on top of the water layer. Since the two are close so the apple will partially float

Which has more momentum: a 20,000 kg cement truck traveling at 5 m/s or a 1000 kg race car traveling at 90 m/s
Maurinko [17]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for momentum:
\large\boxed{p = mv}

p = linear momentum (kgm/s)
m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

We can calculate each object's momentum and compare.

Cement truck:
p = 20000 \cdot 5 = 100000kg\frac{m}{s}

Race car:
p = 1000 \cdot 90 = 90000 kg\frac{m}{s}}

<u>Since 100,000 > 90,000, the cement truck has the greater momentum.</u>

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A. Mrŵ² = ųMg

Ŵ = (ųg/r)^½

B.

Ŵ =[ (g /r)* tan á]^½

Explanation:

T.v.= centrepetal force = mrŵ²

Where m = mass of block,

r = radius

Ŵ = angular momentum

On a horizontal axial banking frictional force supplies the Pentecostal force is numerically equal.

So there for

Mrŵ² = ųMg

Ŵ = (ųg/r)^½

g = Gravitational pull

ų = coefficient of friction.

B. The net external force equals the horizontal centerepital force if the angle à is ideal for the speed and radius then friction becomes negligible

So therefore

N *(sin á) = mrŵ² .....equ 1

Since the car does not slide the net vertical forces must be equal and opposite so therefore

N*(cos á) = mg.....equ 2

Where N is the reaction force of the car on the surface.

Equ 2 becomes N = mg/cos á

Substituting N into equation 1

mg*(sin á /cos á) =mrŵ²

Tan á = rŵ²/g

Ŵ =[ (g /r)* tan á]^½
