Explain newton's second law in terms of inertia?​

Physics
1 answer:
lapo4ka [179]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Newton's second law is F=ma. And since inertia is the resistance an object has against a change in velocity or force, you must push a lot harder to start moving an object, but once it starts to move, it is a lot easier, until you go to stop it.

A particle vibrates in Simple Harmonic Motion with amplitude. What will be its displacement in one time-period? A 2A 4A 0
yan [13]

'Displacement' is the distance and direction between the starting point and
ending point, regardless of the path followed to get there.

A particle that's executing simple harmonic motion is always in the same place
where it was one time period ago, and where it will be later after another time
period has passed. 

So its displacement during exactly one time period is exactly zero.

Two point charges are brought closer together, increasing the force between them by a factor of 17. By what factor was their sep
nignag [31]

Answer:

\dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=4.123

Explanation:

Given:

Final force between them=17(initial force between them)

initial separation between them r_1

Final separation between them r_2

Let Q and q be the charges on them then

F_2=17F_1\\\dfrac{kQq}{r_2^2}=17\dfrac{kQq}{r_1^2}\\\dfrac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}=17\\\dfrac{r_1}{r_2}=4.123

Dovator [93]
According to newton's third law: every action has an equal and opposite reaction, so yes the ground does move backwards. You have 4 forces acting on you at any given time: pushing force, friction force, gravity, and normal force. you push against something to propel forward, you have to overcome gravity and friction, and normal force keeps things upright to prevent them from falling into each other. 

<span>If everything is motionless at every instant, and time is entirely composed of instants, then motion is impossible, so it must be an illusion.

A 60 kg person is in a head-on collision. The car's speed at impact is 15 m/s . Estimate the net force on the person if he or sh
zalisa [80]

Complete question:

Seat belts and air bags save lives by reducing the forces exerted on the driver and passengers in an automobile collision. Cars are designed with a "crumple zone" in the front of the car. In the event of an impact, the passenger compartment decelerates over a distance of about 1 m as the front of the car crumples. An occupant restrained by seat belts and air bags decelerates with the car. In contrast,  a passenger not wearing a seat belt or using an air bag decelerates over a distance of 5mm.

(a) A 60 kg person is in a head-on collision. The car's speed at impact is 15 m/s . Estimate the net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys.

Answer:

The net force on the person as the air bad deploys is -6750 N backwards

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the passenger, m = 60 kg

velocity of the car at impact, u = 15 m/s

final velocity of the car after impact, v = 0

distance moved as the front of the car crumples, s = 1 m

First, calculate the acceleration of the car at impact;

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 15² + (2 x 1)a

0 = 225 + 2a

2a = -225

a = -225 / 2

a = -112.5 m/s²

The net force on the person;

F = ma

F = 60 (-112.5)

F = -6750 N backwards

Therefore, the net force on the person as the air bad deploys is -6750 N backwards
