Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or in motion.

According to Newton's First Law of Motion states that an body at rest will remain at rest or move at a constant speed in a straight line unless it is acted on by an unbalanced force.


The train is this case is moving forward it will continue to move forward unless friction or the brakes interfere with its movement. Say for instance the train abruptly accelerated then the passengers may feel it as though their bodies are moving backward. In reality, inertia is making the body want to stay in place as the train moves forward.

Simple Harmonic Motion
Delvig [45]

- The net force is greatest at the position of maximum displacement

- The net force is zero when at the equilibrium position

Explanation:

The motion of a spring is a Simple Harmonic Motion, in which the displacement of the end of the spring is given by a periodic function of the form

x=Asin (\omega t)

where A is the amplitude (the maximum displacement), and \omega the angular frequency of the motion.

We can analyze the net force acting on the spring by looking at Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the net force

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement

From the equation, we notice immediately that:

  • The net force is the greatest when the displacement x is the greates, so at the position in which the spring has maximum compression or stretching
  • The net force is zero when the displacement x is zero, so when the spring crosses the equilibrium position

When sound is created it travels to the car through a
Rasek [7]

A sound wave is a longitudinal wave caused by vibrations and carried through a substance. The particles of the substance, such as air particles, vibrate back and forth along the path that the sound waves travel. Sound is transmitted through the vibrations and collisions of the particles.

This could maybe help you with your answer.

You push a 1.30 kg physics book 2.80 m along a horizontal tabletop with a horizontal push of 1.55 N while the opposing force of
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

<h2>3.36J</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m= 1.3kg

distance moved s= 2.8m

opposing frictional force= 0.34N

assume g= 9.81m/s^2

we know that work done= force *distance moved

1. work done to push the book= 1.55*2.8=4.34J

2. Work against friction = force of friction x distance

                                       = 0.34*2.8=0.952J

Step two:

the work done on the book is the net work, which is

Network done= work done to push the book- Work against friction

Network done= 4.32-0.952=3.36J

<u>Therefore the work of the 1.55N 3.36J</u>
