A car company is testing seatbelts using crash test dummies. The company finds that when cars come to a sudden stop, the crash t

est dummies' bodies continue to move forward. The seat belt keeps the crash test dummies from hitting the back of the seat in front of them. Why do the crash test dummies' bodies continue to move forward even though the car stopped?

Answer: Because of Inertia

Explanation: According to Newton first law, that a body in a linear motion will continue to be in motion except an external for act on it

But also, a body in motion will always like to continue in motion and have a reluctance tendency to stop because of inertia.

the crash test dummies' bodies will continue to move forward even though the car stopped because of inertia.

The stopwatch will be the most useful in determining the kinetic energy of a 50 g battery- powered car traveling a distance of 10 m.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy of a body possessed due to motion.

This means that for an object to possess kinetic energy, it must be in motion.

The kinetic energy is measured in Joules, which is a product of the mass of the substance and the time taken to travel a distance.

A stopwatch is an instrument used to measure time as one of the components of kinetic energy.

Therefore, the stopwatch will be the most useful in determining the kinetic energy of a 50 g battery- powered car traveling a distance of 10 m.

7. How much work is done in moving a charge of 10 micro coulombs 1 meter along an equipotential of 10 volts?
Neko [114]

It takes work to push charge through a change of potential. 
There's no change of potential along an equipotential path,
so that path doesn't require any work.
