If you throw a raw egg against a wall, you'll break it, but if you throw it with the same speed into a sagging sheet it won't br

eak. why? 1. the sheet is much slicker than the wall. 2. the breaking egg causes a larger impact time, decreasing the force. 3. the impact time when the egg strikes a sagging sheet is long, so the impact force is small. 4. the velocity of the egg decreases faster in the sheet than on the wall.

<span>The egg doesn't break when it hits the sheet because the impact time is longer. Momentum means the egg is slowed rather than coming to an abrubt halt. The softer the object that the egg hits, the longer the time it takes to break. A sheet is so soft that the force is never high enough for the egg to break.</span>

Explique ¿por que un objeto que tiene energía es capaz de realizar un trabajo?
Nana76 [90]
By striking another object that is free to move, the moving object can exert a force and cause the second object to shift its position. While the object is moving, it has the capacity for doing work. Energy means the ability to do work, so all moving things have energy by virtue of their motion.




Translation: Al golpear otro objeto que se puede mover libremente, el objeto en movimiento puede ejercer una fuerza y ​​hacer que el segundo objeto cambie de posición. Mientras el objeto se mueve, tiene la capacidad de realizar un trabajo. Energía significa la capacidad de realizar un trabajo, por lo que todas las cosas en movimiento tienen energía en virtud de su movimiento.

Solar system help please!
Kobotan [32]
When one body(sun) exerts a force on a second body(planet), the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the first body. Which makes the planet orbit in path C.

Hope this helps!!

a skinny girl devours food that is equivalent to 600 kcal, as she is anorexic she repents and wants to lose twice as many calori
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done in lifting the weight once = mgh

= 20 x 9.8 x (1.9+1.7)

= 705.6 J  

= 705.6 / 4.2 calorie

= 168 cals

Total energy to be spent = 600 x 10³ cals

No of times weight is required to be lifted

= 600 x 10³ / 168

= 3.57  x 10³ times

Total time to be taken = 2 x 3.57 x 10³

= 7.14 x 10³ s

=119 minutes .
