A flying mosquito hits the windshield of a moving car and gets smashed, but the car is intact. Which of the following statements

is correct? Group of answer choices The force on the mosquito by the car is much larger than the force on the car by the mosquito, therefore the mosquito gets smashed but the car is intact. The force on the mosquito by the car is much larger than the force on the car by the mosquito because the car is much heavier than the mosquito. The force on the mosquito by the car has the same magnitude as the force on the car by the mosquito. The force on the mosquito by the car is much larger than the force on the car by the mosquito because the car is moving.

Answer:

Action and reaction are the same

Explanation:

Let us carefully analyze the situation in the context of Newton's third law, when the car hits the mosquito exerts a force that acts on the mosquito, ACTION and the mosquito responds to the force that is being applied with a force of equal magnitude and direction or opposite applied to the car (Reaction).

Consequently, the correct answer is: The force of the car on the mosquito is of the same magnitude as that of the mosquito on the car

Determine the scalar components Ra and Rb of the force R along the nonrectangular axes a and b. Also determine the orthogonal pr
Liula [17]

Answer: Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

Ra = 1132 N

Rb = 522.6 N

Pa = 679.7 N

Explanation:

To determine the scalar components Ra

\frac{Ra}{Sin 120^o} = \frac{750}{sin 35^o}  

therefore : Ra = \frac{sin120^o * 750}{sin 35^o} = 1132 N

To determine the scalar component Rb

\frac{Rb}{sin 25^o} = \frac{750}{sin 35^o}

therefore : Rb = \frac{sin 25^o * 750}{sin 35^o}  = 522.6 N

To determine the orthogonal projection Pa of R onto

Pa = 750 cos25^o = 679.7 N

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW

A metal sphere with radius R1 has a charge Q1. Take the electric potential to be zero at an infinite distance from the sphere.
Airida [17]

Answer:

Part A :  E =   \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁² Volt/meter

Part B :  V =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁ Volt

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge distributed on the sphere is Q₁

The radius of sphere is R

₁

The electric potential at infinity is 0

<em>Part A</em>

The space around a charge in which its influence is felt is known in the electric field. The strength at any point inside the electric field is defined by the force experienced by a unit positive charge placed at that point.  

If a unit positive charge is placed at the surface it experiences a force according to the Coulomb law is given by

                          F = \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁²

Then the electric field at that point is

                                   E =  F/1

                            E =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁²  Volt/meter

Part B

The electric potential at a point is defined as the amount of work done in moving a unit positive charge from infinity to that point against electric forces.

Thus, the electric potential at the surface of the sphere of radius R₁ and charge distribution Q₁ is given by the relation

                           V =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁  Volt

How much energy is needed to change the speed of a 1600 kg sport utility vehicle from 15.0 m/s to 40.0 m/s?
podryga [215]

Answer:

Energy needed = 1100 kJ

Explanation:

Energy needed = Change in kinetic energy

Initial velocity = 15 m/s

Mass, m = 1600 kg

\texttt{Initial kinetic energy = }\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.5\times 1600\times 15^2=180000J

Final velocity = 40 m/s

\texttt{Final kinetic energy = }\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.5\times 1600\times 40^2=1280000J

Energy needed = Change in kinetic energy = 1280000-180000 = 1100000J

Energy needed = 1100 kJ

You throw a baseball at an angle of 30.0∘∘ above the horizontal. It reaches the highest point of its trajectory 1.05 ss later. A
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The speed with which the baseball leaves the hand = 20.58 m/s

Explanation:

The time take to reach highest height during a projectile's flight is given by

t = (u sin θ)/g

u = initial velocity of the baseball = ?

θ = angle of throw above the horizontal

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

1.05 = (u sin 30)/9.8

u = (1.05 × 9.8)/0.5

u = 20.58 m/s
