Answer:

The force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law; action and reaction are equal and opposite. Hence, when the big truck and small passenger car are involved in a collision, we expect that the force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck. The forces on the car and the truck are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

This follows directly from Newton's third law of motion hence the answer above.

algol13

Explanation:

The mass of a ball, m = 2 kg

It is traveling with a speed of 10 m/s

The ball's kinetic energy just as it leaves the boy's hand is calculated as follows :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times (10)^2\\\\=100\ J

The ball's kinetic energy just as it leaves the boy's hand is 100 J. The potential energy of the ball when it reaches the highest point is same as the kinetic energy as it leaves the boy's hand.

Hence, the required kinetic and potential energy is 100 J.

Use the diagram to answer each question.
valentina_108 [34]

Figure A shows cross section of a land form or rock. In Figure B, compression stress is applied on it. When compression stresses are applied on a rock, it squeezes the rock cause fold or fracture. The fault formed by compression stress is called thrust fault. If the compression stresses/ force continue to act on a rock it will converge and form thrust fault. In Figure C, tension stresses is applied on the rock. When a tension stress applied on a rock it deforms/ lengthen. There are three type of deformations occur due to tension stresses. One is elastic deformation, in which, rock retains it original shape when force/stresses are removed. Second is plastic deformation, in which rock lengthen and change occur permanently. Third type of deformation is result into fracture or breaking of rock. In Figure C, shear stresses are applied on rock. Shear stresses are applied with equal magnitude but in opposite direction. It cause breaking of rock.

the young’s modulus of aluminum is 69gpa, of nylon is 3gpa, of tungsten is 400gpa, and of copper is 117gpa. if equal-size sample
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Least to most elongated: tungsten, copper, aluminum, nylon.

Explanation:

Materials with high Young's modulus are difficult to stretch. σ = Yε and ε = ΔL/L so an object with a high Young's modulus (Y) subject to a certain tensile stress (σ) will have a smaller strain than an object with a smaller Young's 's modulus subject to the same tensile stress. If strain (ε) is smaller, then ΔL will also be smaller.

Explain how to identify a starting position<br> on a line.
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

We can easily find out the beginning point of the line by using dot representation. When it comes to position vector, it expresses the exact position of certain object from the starting point of the coordinate system. The vector is a straight line that has a certain end which is fixed to its body
