A 1200-kg car pushes a 2100-kg truck that has a dead battery to the right. When the driver steps on the accelerator, the drive wheels of the car push against the ground with a force of 4500 N . What is the magnitude of the force the car applies to the truck?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:4500 N

Explanation:

Given

mass of truck (m_t)=2100 kg

mass of car(m_c)=1200 kg

as the car push the ground with a force of 4500 N so the force on the truck should also be 4500 N as they all the force is transmitted to push the truck

and their acceleration is

a=(4500)/(1200+2100)=1.36 m/s^2
Answer 2
Answer:

Final answer:

Based on Newton's third law of motion, if the car is pushing against the ground with a force of 4500N, that same force is what propels the car and any object attached to it, regardless of the object's mass. Therefore, the car also applies a force of 4500N to the truck it is pushing.

Explanation:

The magnitude of force that a 1200-kg car applies to a 2100-kg truck with a dead battery can be calculated using the principles of Newtons's third law of motion which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The force exerted by the car on the ground is equal to the force exerted by the ground on the vehicle. If the car's driving force against the ground is 4500N, as per Newton's third law, the ground also pushes the car back with the same force of 4500N. This force is what propels the car and any object it's connected with.

So, when the car is pushing this truck, it applies this same force of 4500N to the truck. Therefore, the magnitude of force the car applies to the truck is 4500N.

jamie is not sure a new medication will work because it has not had a large test group. Is jamie being creative?

Answers

No, he is being skeptical.

In the situation above Jamie doubts because the test was done with a small sample. He thinks the results are uncertain because it is needed a big sample to avoid mistakes and icrease the reliability of the study. So, this leads to scepticism, which means doubt about the truth of something, this is what Jamie does in the situation, this is why he is being skeptical.

True or false one of the benefits of using an exercise ball is generally involves the core muscles?

Answers

the answer is true improve core stability
This is true in many cases, but not all. There are exercises in which you simply raise and lower an exercise ball over your head (kind of like weight lifting), but whenever the ball is in front of you and you reach out at all with your arms, that is a core workout. 

This diver has just jumped up from the end of the diving board. After she dives down and is falling toward the water, she’ll have kinetic energy, or the energy of moving matter. But even as she is momentarily stopped high above the water, she has energy. Do you know why?

Answers

Answer:

Mechanical energy is divided into two:Kinetic energy and Potential energy....The diver diving down exhibits kinetic energy because she is moving but when she has stopped it means she has potential energy which means that a body is at rest....

Which of the following is not a dwarf planet?A. Hydra
B. Haumea
C. Eris
D. Pluto

Answers

The correct answer is (a.) Hydra. Hydra is not a dwarf planet, instead, it is the moon of the dwarf planet, Pluto. There are only four accepted dwarf planets by the International Astronomical Union which were the Haumea, Pluto, Eris, and Makemake. 

The planet that is considered or classified as a dwarf planet include the following: A. Hydra.

What is a planet?

A planet is a terminology which is used to describe a large astronomical (celestial) body that has sufficient mass to allow for self-gravity and make it assume a nearly circular shape or spherical shape.

Based on astronomical records, there are nine (9) planets in the solar system and these include the following;

  1. Mercury
  2. Venus
  3. Earth
  4. Mars
  5. Jupiter
  6. Saturn
  7. Uranus
  8. Neptune
  9. Pluto

In conclusion, we can reasonably infer and logically deduce that Hydra cannot be considered or classified as a dwarf planet because it is typically the moon of the dwarf planet, referred to as Pluto.
