Answer:

The book remained in its state of rest before the car started to move forward as no direct force acted on it.

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, a body will continue in its present state of rest, or if it is in motion, will continue to move with uniform speed in a straight line unless aced upon by an external force. This tendency of a body to remain in its state of reset or uniform motion in a straight line is known as inertia and is directly proportional to the mass of the body. The more massive a body, the more inertia it possesses. Thus Newton's first law is also known as the law of inertia.

Considering the case of the book on the dashboard of a stationary car which suddenly starts to move. While the car is stopped at the traffic light, the dashboard where the book sits and the book are both at rest. When the car begins to move forward, the dashboard moves forward with it. However as the book is not a part of the car, no force is directly acting on it, so the book so it stays at rest due to its inertia.

Therefore, as the car is moving forward, the stationary book appears to move backward from the reference point of the car, sliding off the dashboard.

miv72 [106K]

Answer:E. Hydrogen was able to participate in an exergonic reaction and carbon dioxide couldn't

Explanation:

An exergonic reaction releases energy to the environment. The combustion of hydrogen contained in the balloon is a chemical reaction. The reaction can take place because hydrogen combines with oxygen in air, that is, the gas is combustible. CO2 does not support combustion, it does not combine with oxygen in air and it is also denser than air, hence does not participate in the exergonic reaction.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The stunt will likely sustain serious injury in case of concrete blocks because the average force acting on the person will be more because concrete blocks do not squeeze to provide more time for the force to act on the body instead it acts for a small amount of interval.

Impulse=F_{avg}\times \Delta T

As impulse is constant so time requires to act force on the body is more as compared to concrete block and thus average force in mattress case is less.

The SAF operates the M113 Ultra APC.
HACTEHA [7]

The volume of the object must be no larger than 11.15 m^3.

Explanation:

In order for an object to be able to float in water, its density must be equal or smaller than the water density.

The density of water is:

\rho = 1000 kg/m^3

This means that the density of the object must be no larger than this value.

We also know that the density of an object is given by

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

where

m is the mass of the object

V is its volume

For the object in this problem, the mass is

m=1.115\cdot 10^4 kg

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find its volume:

V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{1.115\cdot 10^4}{1000}=11.15 m^3

So, the volume of the object must be no larger than 11.15 m^3.
