Newton’s first law of inertia
Less force, same work
Answer:
the third law (for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction).
Explanation:
The skateboarder pushes backwards on the road (that is he applies a force on the road in a direction opposite the direction of intended motion). By Newton's third law, this action of the skateboarder causes an equal reaction of the road on the skateboarder in the opposite direction. Newton's third law states that action and reaction are equal but opposite in direction. So, the road in response to this backward force pushes the skateboarder in the forward direction causing the skateboarder and the skateboard to move in the forward direction.
Answer:
480.2 m
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Speed of sound (v) = 343 m/s.
Time (t) = 2.8 s
Distance (x) of the cliff =?
The distance of the cliff from the woman can be obtained as follow:
v = 2x /t
343 = 2x /2.8
Cross multiply
2x = 343 × 2.8
2x = 960.4
Divide both side by the coefficient of x i.e 2
x = 960.4/2
x = 480.2 m
Therefore, the cliff is 480.2 m away from the woman.
