Answer:

Force Exerted by Sedan on Truck = - F

Explanation:

This question can easily be solved by using Newton's Third Law of Motion. Newton's Third Law of Motion clearly states that for every action force there exists an equal in magnitude reaction force. However, the direction of the reaction force is opposite to the direction of the action force. Mathematically,

Action Force = - Reaction Force

Hence, we have here:

Force Exerted by Semi Truck on Sedan = F

So, from Newton's Third Law of motion:

Force Exerted by Sedan on Truck = - Force Exerted by Semi Truck on Sedan

<u>Force Exerted by Sedan on Truck = - F</u>

Rudik [331]

Answer:

τ= F r     into the blade

Explanation:

The moment of a force is defined by

         τ = F x r

where the bold indicates vectors

Let us write in the expression in magnitude

         τ = F r sin θ

in our case the force is tangent to the wheel therefore the angle between F and the radius is 90º, and the sin 90 = 1

       τ= F r

The direction of τ can be used by the rule of the right hand, the fingers curve in the direction of the torque when advancing from the force to the radius and the thumb points in the direction of the torque.

In this case, for a clockwise rotation, the fingers are curved in the direction and the thumb points into the blade, this is the direction of the τ.

TRASLATE

El momento de una fura es definido por

         τ = F x r

donde la negrillas indican vectores

Escribamos en ta expresión en magnitud

          τ = F r sin θ

en nuestro caso la fuerza es tangente a la rueda por lo tanto el angulo entre F y el radios es 90º, y el sin 90=1

        τ = F r

la dirección de tau la podemos  usar la regla de la mano derecha, los dedos curva en la dirección del torque al avanzar dese la fuerza al radio y el pulgar apunta en la dirección del torque.

En este caso para un giro en sentido horario los dedos se curvan ente sentido y el pulgar apunta hacia dentro de lla hoja, esta es la dirección del troque

Imagine you’re driving along a road and you approach a bridge. You notice a sign that reads, “Bridge freezes before road.” Why d
nydimaria [60]

<u>Answer:</u>

<h3>During wet and freezing temperatures, ice is able to form at a faster pace on bridges because freezing winds blow from above and below and both sides of the bridge, causing heat to quickly escape. The road freezes slower because it is merely losing heat through its surface.</h3>

A spring driven dart gun propels a 10g dart. It is cocked by exerting a force of 20N over a distance of 5cm. With what speed wil
adelina 88 [10]
<span>14 m/s Assuming that all of the energy stored in the spring is transferred to dart, we have 2 equations to take into consideration. 1. How much energy is stored in the spring? 2. How fast will the dart travel with that amount of energy. As for the energy stored, that's a simple matter of multiplication. So: 20 N * 0.05 m = 1 Nm = 1 J For the second part, the energy of a moving object is expressed as KE = 0.5 mv^2 where KE = Kinetic energy m = mass v = velocity Since we now know the energy (in Joules) and mass of the dart, we can substitute the known values and solve for v. So KE = 0.5 mv^2 1 J = 0.5 0.010 kg * v^2 1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 0.005 kg * v^2 200 m^2/s^2 = v^2 14.14213562 m/s = v So the dart will have a velocity of 14 m/s after rounding to 2 significant figures.</span>

The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.

Consider the position vs. time graph below for a woman's movement in a hallway. What is the woman's velocity from 4 to 5 s?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The answer is "6\  \frac{m}{s}"

Explanation:

The formula for velocity:

\to \overline{v}={\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}}

      =\frac{6}{1}\\\\=6\  \frac{m}{s}
