Answer:

Your answer would be D. be pushed down into their seats.

Explanation:

You can think of it this way:

If you're not wearing a seat belt on an airplane that drops suddenly, in this case, vertically, which often happens with turbulence- you're the one at rest. You'll stay at rest as the plane (literally) drops out from under you.

If you're strapped in, the seat belt serves as an outside force acting on you, taking you with the plane as it drops and saving you from hitting the ceiling.

Always remember Newton's first law of motion: A body at rest will remain at rest unless an outside force acts on it.

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl
muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type

A race car has a centripedal acceleration of 13.33M/S as it goes around a curve. If the curve is a circle with radius 30 m, what
agasfer [191]

Answer:19.997m/s

Explanation:

Velocity=√(centripetal acceleration×radius)

Velocity=√(13.33×30)

Velocity=√(399.9)

Velocity=19.997

Reptile [31]

Answer:

v (speed) = S / t = 4 * 400 m / (6 * 60 sec) = 4.4 m/s

The average velocity  is zero because there is no net vector displacement.
