The force of the truck on the car is equal to the force of the car on the truck.

<h3>What is Newton's third law of motion?</h3>
  • Newton's third law of motion states that action and reaction are equal and opposite.

Let the mass of the small car = m

Let the mass of the truck = M

The force exerted by the small car is calculated as;

F₁ = ma

The force exerted by the large truck is calculated as;

F₂ = Ma

According to Newton's third law, the magnitude of the two forces are equal but opposite in direction.

|F₁| = |F₂|

Thus, we can conclude that, the force of the truck on the car is equal to the force of the car on the truck.

A bolt of lightning discharges 9.7 C in 8.9 x 10^-5 s. What is the average current during the discharge?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 1.089\times 10^5\ A

Explanation:

Given

Charge discharged Q=9.7\C

time taken t=8.9\times 10^{-5}\ s

Current is given as rate of change of discharge i.e.

\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{Q}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{9.7}{8.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\\Rightarrow I=1.089\times 10^5\ A

Therefore, the average current is 1.089\times 10^5\ A

A boat is drifting with a speed of 5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}5.0 s m ​ 5, point, 0, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s,
zepelin [54]

Answer:

d=42m(-\hat{i})

Explanation:

For this problem, we need to apply the formulas of constant accelerated motion.

To obtain the boat displacement we need to calculate the displacement because of the river flow and the displacement done because of the boat motor.

for the river:

d_r=v*t\\d_r=5m/s*6s\\d_r=30m(\hat{i})

for the boat:

x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\x=\frac{1}{2}*4.0m/s*(6s)^2\\\\\\x=72m(-\hat{i})

So the final displacement is given by:

d=dr+x\\d=30m-72m\\d=42m(-\hat{i})

If the pressure in a gas is doubled while its volume is held constant, by what factor do vrms change
Nat2105 [25]

Answer is given below

Explanation:

given data

pressure = double

volume = constant

solution

As we know that an Average velocity and rms velocity is directly proportional to square root of PV ..................1

so if we take P is doubled while keeping V constant

than Velocity increases by a factor \sqrt{2}  

so that Factor = 1.414 for both the cases

a cart's initial velocity is +3.0 meters per second. What is its final velocity after accelerating at a rate of 1.5m/s2 for 8.0
Andreas93 [3]

The final velocity is +15.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the cart is a uniformly accelerated motion (=at constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the cart in this problem, we have:

u = +3.0 m/s (initial velocity)

a=1.5 m/s^2 (acceleration)

t = 8.0 s (time)

Substituting, we find the final velocity:

v=3.0+(1.5)(8.0)=+15.0 m/s
