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.

the force in the direction of movement
Fx = F x cosA*
Fx = 12 x cos25*
Fx = 10.88
m x a = 10.88
a = 10.88/5
a= 2.18 m/s^2
b.
when the block will be lifted off the floor and when the vertical component

c.
if Fx = ma
a = 115.94/5
a= 23.19 m/s^2

The place kicker on a football team kicks a ball from ground level with an initial speed of 5.80 m/s at an angle of 17.0° above
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

0.34 s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a ball, u = 5.8 m/s

It is kicked at an angle of 17.0° above the horizontal.

The vertical component of velocity will be,

u_y=u\sin\theta\\\\=5.8\times \sin 17\\\\=1.69\ m/s

Let it takes t time in the air before it lands on the ground again. It can calculated as :

t=\dfrac{2u_y}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 1.69}{9.8}\\\\t=0.34\ s

So, it will take 0.34 seconds.

Answer:

Gamma rays occupy the short-wavelength end of the spectrum; they can have wavelengths smaller than the nucleus of an atom. Visible light wavesare one-thousandths the width of human hair--about a million times longer than gamma rays. Radio waves, at the long-wavelength end of the spectrum, can be many meters long.
