Answer:

Inertia

Explanation:

Inertia is best defined as the ability of an object to resist a change in position or movement. That is why when an object has a higher mass, the higher the inertia. Imagine an oncoming truck that is fully loaded versus you. The tendency for the truck to change its movement would be difficult because of its its mass. It has a lot of inertia.

A 1200-kg car initially at rest undergoes constant acceleration for 9.4 s, reaching a speed of 11 m/s. It then collides with a s
Natalka [10]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy and the definition of kinematic energy as half the product between mass and squared velocity. So,

KE_i = KE_f

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Here,

m = Mass

V = Velocity

Replacing,

KE_f = \frac{1}{2} (12000)(11)^2

KE_f = 72600J

Therefore the  final kinetic energy of the two car system is 72.6kJ

Describe the factors that cause static friction between two surfaces to increase.
maw [93]

Answer : The static friction depends on two factors

1. Roughness of the surface

2. Force

Explanation : Friction occur when surface is not smooth.

The formula of friction is

F= \mu mg

Static friction depends on the roughness of the surface and force which is trying to push to object along the surface.

Static friction is caused by the attraction between two surfaces that are in contact.  when the surface will rough and the object will heavier then the force will be larger.

Which phrase desenbes an irregular galaxy ?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

contains many young stars

Explanation:

Irregular galaxies have <em>no definite shape</em>, which means that the first option is incorrect. They are definitely not round.

However,<u> they contain many young stars because the degree of star formation is fast.</u> They also contain old stars. Thus, the second choice is correct.

The "spiral galaxy" is the type of galaxy that has arms that extend from the center. These arms look "spiral," which influenced its name. This makes the last choice incorrect.

They are actually <u>smaller than the other types of galaxies.</u> This makes them <em>prone to collisions</em>. This makes the last choice incorrect.

1) Arrange the following spectral regions in order of increasing energy: infrared, microwave, ultraviolet, visible.
Anton [14]

Answer:

The order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

Arrange the following spectral regions in order of increasing energy: infrared, microwave, ultraviolet, visible.

From the formula of energy in terms of frequency.

  E = hf

Where h = planck constant, f = frequency of light.

From above formula we can conclude that higher frequency means higher energy.

In our case ultraviolet has higher frequency and microwave has lower frequency.

So ultraviolet has higher energy and microwave has lower energy.

microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet

Therefore, the order of increasing energy is as follows

"microwave < infrared < visible < ultraviolet"
