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.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V    .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Describe the organization of our solar system. What are the different divisions, or categories?
olasank [31]
Hello.

The solor system is organized by the smallest star to the largest and by the 8 planets. it is also organized by how much gas a planet has. But it is also orgainzed becasue of gravity.

The different divisions are <span>planets, moons, asteroids, comets and meteoroids.

A cylindrical container with a cross-sectional area of 66.2 cm2 holds a fluid of density 856 kg/m3 . At the bottom of the contai
Ugo [173]

Answer:

A. h = 2.15 m

B. Pb' = 122 KPa

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a)  Let us assume the depth be h

As we know that

Pb - Pat = d \times g \times h \\\\ ( 119 - 101) \times 10^3 = 856 \times 9.8 \times h

After solving this,  

h = 2.15 m

Therefore the depth of the fluid is 2.15 m

b)

Given that  

height of the extra fluid is

h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}}{ area} \\\\ h' = \frac{2.35 \times 10^{-3}} { 66.2 \times 10^{-4}}

h' = 0.355 m

Now let us assume the pressure at the bottom is Pb'

so, the equation would be

Pb' - Pat = d \times g \times  (h + h')\\\\Pb' = 856 \times 9.8 \times ( 2.15 + 0.355) + 101000

Pb' = 122 KPa
