Why are road accidents at high speeds very much worse than road accidents at low speeds?

Vehicles with high speeds have high momenta (plural of momentum). When they come to rest in very small time they experience high forces
we know that rate of change of momentum is force, lower the time higher is force. So, slow moving vehicles experience less force. It is important to note that if any one vehicle involving has high speed it can do more damage both the vehicles involving.

Answer:

The momentum makes it worse.

Explanation:

The momentum of vehicles running at faster speeds is very high and causes a lot of damage to the vehicles.

Answer:

None of the stars give of light that is red-shifted

Explanation:

Motion of the observer or the source will cause a change in the wavelength of a wave. This is known as the Doppler effect. When an object and observer are getting close, blue shift occurs i.e., the wavelength gets shorter. When an object and observer are getting farther red shift occurs i.e., the wavelength gets longer.

Here, both the stars are getting closer to us so blue shift will occur.

Why does moon appear to have alot of phases
Bingel [31]
It depends on the angle of the earth, and our point of view. A full moon would occur if we were to be right in front of it.

il63 [147K]

Explanation:

a)

Sum of moments = 0 (Equilibrium)

T . cos (Q)*L = m*g*L/2

cos Q = \frac{\sqrt{(2.5^2 - L^2) } }{2.5}

T*\frac{\sqrt{(2.5^2 - L^2) } }{2.5} * L = 0.1 *9.81*L/2

T = \frac{2.4525}{\sqrt{(2.5)^2 - L^2} }

b) If the String is shorter the Q increases; hence, Cos Q decreases which in turn increases Tension in the string due to inverse relationship!

c)

T = \frac{1.962}{\sqrt{(2)^2 - L^2} }
