While driving down the road, a grasshopper strikes the windshield of a bus and makes a mess in front of the face of the driver.

This is a good example of Newton's third law of motion. The action is the grasshopper hitting the windshield and the reaction is the windshield stopping the grasshopper. Which of the two forces is greater: the force on the grasshopper or the force on the windshield?

Answer:

Both forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction

Explanation:

As per Newton's law we know that every action has equal and opposite reaction.

So here when grasshopper strikes the wind screen then action force due to grasshopper on wind shield will hit the screen and at the same moment the wind shield will also exert a force on the grasshopper

This force due to windshield on the grasshopper will be same in magnitude but opposite in the direction

So here correct answer will be

The two forces are equal in magnitude

Answer:

The force on the grass hopper is equal and opposite to the force on the wind shield.

Explanation:

It is a known fact every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Here the action force is the grasshopper hitting the windshield.

The reaction force is the force exerted by the windshield on the grasshopper.

If the force of windshield on the grasshopper is more, grasshopper would have been thrown away. If the grasshopper's force on the windshield is greater, the windshield would have broken.

But here these constitute equal and opposite action-reaction pair of forces and so the grasshopper is able to repeatedly strike the windshield.

What is the diameter of a circle
aalyn [17]
A diameter is a straight line that begins at one end of the circle and ends at the opposite end. The condition for a line to be a diameter is that it must pass through the centre of the circle. If a line that touches two points on the circle, does not pass from the centre of the circle, it cannot be called a diameter.
The length of the diameter is the measurement of the line that connects the two points of the circle.

What happens to the diffraction pattern when the number of lines per centimeter of a diffraction grating is increased?
timofeeve [1]
The separation between two neighboring vital maxima increments. As the quantity lines per centimeter expand, the detachment d between neighboring openings ends up noticeably littler. The point that determines primary maxima of a diffraction grinding is given by transgression = m/d, where is the wavelength and m = 0, 1, 2, 3. For settled estimations of m and the wavelength, this connection demonstrates that as d abatements, increments. For a settled screen area, this implies the separation between two neighboring chief maxima additionally increments.
