Answer:

Explanation:

The vehicle is experiencing a large force created by the concrete wall.

Equation

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a * d

Givens

vf = 0   The car eventually does stop.

vi = 72 km/hr * [ 1000 m/  km] * [1 hour / 3600 seconds]

vi = 20 meters / second

a = ?

m = 850 kg

Solution

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2a*d

0 = 20 m/s + 2* 2 *a

-20 m/s = 4a

-20/4 =   a

a = - 5 m/s^2   The minus sign tells you the vehicle is slowing down. It sure should be.

Force = m * a

F = - 850 * (-5)

F =  - 4250 N

The car provides a 4250 N force on it going east to west and a 4250 N force going from west to east provided by the concrete wall.

A ball of mass m is found to have a weight Wx on Planet X. Which of the following is a correct expression for the gravitational
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, and as we know by the second Newton's law:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

Then if the weight is:

Wx, and the mass is m, we have the equation:

Wx = m*a

Where in this case, a is the gravitational field strength.

Then, isolating a in that equation we get:

Wx/m = a

Then the correct option is:

B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Which hybridization schemes allows the central atom to form more than four bonds?
olganol [36]

Answer:

sp3d

Explanation:

=1

sp=2

sp^2=3

sp^3=4

sp^3d=5

As we add, we can make one more bond...since this says MORE than four bond, the answer must be sp^3d.
