e Question Completion Status Moving to another question will save this response. Question 1 A freight truck collides head-on with a passenger car, causing a lot of damage to the car than to the truck. From this condtion, we can say that o a the magnitude of the force of the truck on the car is greater than the magnitude of the force of the car on the truck O b the magnitude of the force of the truck on the car is smaller than the magnitude of the force of the car on the truck C. the magnitude of the force of the truck on the car is equal to the magnitude of the force of the car on the truck O d none of the above s Moving to another question wit save this response.

Explanation / Answer

Question 1

option c is correct

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

By Newton's Third Law. However, the car sustains more damage because its structure cannot tolerate as much force as the robust truck can.

Question 2

By using Hooke's law,

K = F/(X - Xo)

F = K*(X - Xo)

Where, K is spring constant = 41 N/m

F is force

X is displacement = 0.06 m

Xo is initial spot = 0 m

We know that,

F = mg

So,

K*(X - Xo) = mg

m = K*(X - Xo)/g

= 41*(0.06 - 0)/9.81

= 0.25 kg

option b is correct
