For a movie stunt, an empty truck with a mass of 2000 kg goes 10 m/s and runs into a stopped car of mass 1000 kg. The truck then

keeps moving and pushes the car along with it.
If there are no other forces acting on this system, which best describes the results of the collision?

The collision is perfectly elastic.
Kinetic energy stays the same.
The momentum after the collision is greater than the momentum before the collision.
The speed of the combined vehicles is less than the initial speed of the truck.

What is the force needed to give a .25 kg arrow an acceleration of 196m/s2?
Rzqust [24]
<span>49N is the force needed to give a .25 kg arrow an acceleration of 196m/s2. F =ma ⇒ =( 0.25kg)(196m/s2) = 49N if the arrow is shot horizontally where the applied force is entirely in the x-direction.</span>

Which statement describes a scientific theory?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A theory changes based on new observations and testing.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a product of multiple trials and repeated experiments. It usually follows after carefully conducting and testing the validity of the hypothesis.

A scientific theory provides an explanation into how something behaves.

A law just states a finding will not explain it.

Most theories are tenable and can be improved upon when new observations and testing are carried out.

Microwaves have a higher frequency than radio waves, so why is it that they don't travel faster?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: Energy requirement or consumption also increases as frequency goes higher. Hence, those low-frequency to mid-frequency waves are commonly referred to as radio waves and essentially, they have longer wavelengths. On the other hand, microwaves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths.

Explanation: therefore that's why they don't travel faster.

One wire carries a current of I1= 2 Amps, and the other carries a parallel current (same direction, wires are side by side) of I
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:F=3\times 10^{-5} N

Explanation:

Given

I_1=2 Amps

I_2=0.75 Amps

Length of each wires\left ( L\right )=5 m

Distance between wires \left ( r\right )=5 cm

Force per unit length =\frac{\mu_0I_1I_2}{2\pi r}

F'=\frac{2\times 10^{-7}\times 2\times 0.75}{2\pi \times 0.05}

F'=6\times 10^{-6}

Force for L=5 m

F=3\times 10^{-5} N
