Answer:

carbon dioxide (CO2)

Explanation:

the burning or combustion of these fossil fuels creates gases that are released into the atmosphere. Of these gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most common and is the gas most responsible for exacerbating the green- house effect that is changing global climate patterns.

Two forces act on an object. One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N direct

xeze [42]

Answer:

8 N North.

Explanation:

Given that,

One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.

Let North is positive and South is negative.

Net force,

F = 10 N +(-2 N)

= 8 N

So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".

Two 125 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car X is moving at 10 m/s and Car Z at −12 m/s when

nignag [31]

<h2>Given that,</h2>

Mass of two bumper cars, m₁ = m₂ = 125 kg

Initial speed of car X is, u₁ = 10 m/s

Initial speed of car Z is, u₂ = -12 m/s

Final speed of car Z, v₂ = 10 m/s

We need to find the final speed of car X after the collision. Let v₁ is its final speed. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as follows :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

v₁ is the final speed of car X.

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2\\\\m_2v_2=m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_2v_2\\\\m_1v_1=125\times 10+125\times (-12)-125\times 10\\\\v_1=\dfrac{-1500}{125}\\\\v_1=-12\ m/s$
