<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

This exposes the individual to danger. <em>Remember</em>, the Newton Law of motion which says that an object under the state of rest will remain in that state (inertia) unless when acted upon by an external force.

In this scenario, standing at the back of the pickup truck presents danger especially if the truck suddenly stops; this individual would experience an upward thrust due to inertia that may disbalance him.

If there are 50 people per square kilometer in a city, and the area of the city is 1.5 × 10 square kilometers. What is the total
qaws [65]

Answer:

750 people

Explanation:

From the question,

Number of people in the city = population density×Area of the city

N = D×A.......................... Equagtion 1

Where N = Number of people in the city, D = population density, A = Area of the city.

Given: D = 50 people per square kilometer, A = 1.5×10 square kilometer.

Substitute into equation 1

N = 50(1.5×10)

N = 750 people.

Hence the total number of people in the city is 750 people.

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.

Test Due! Which statement is true?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The correct answer is C. Mercury and Mars have the same gravitational force

Explanation:

This chart compares the different features of two planets in our solar system (Mercury and Mars). In this chart, the only numerical value or feature that is the same for both planets is gravity because for both planets gravity is 1.7 m/s2. This implies the gravitational force or the force that attracts objects towards the center of the planet is the same or that objects are pulled with the same force in both planets. Moreover, this factor depends on others such as mass, density, among others.

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0 inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s
sweet [91]

This question is in complete.The question is

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0° inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s and rolls in a straight line without slipping. If the moment of inertia of the coin is(1/2) MR² , how far will the coin roll up the inclined plane (length along the ramp)? Hint: Conservation of mechanical energy.

Answer:

distance=0.124 m

Explanation:

mgh=mglSin\alpha =(1/2)Iw_{i}^{2}+(1/2)mv^{2}\\   v=wR\\Solve for L\\L=((1/2)(1/2)0.015^{2}*60^{2}+(1/2)(60*0.015^{2} ))/9.8Sin30\\   L=0.124m
