Amosquito collides head-on with a car traveling 60 mph. part a is the force of the mosquito on the car larger than, smaller than, or equal to the force of the car on the mosquito? is the force of the mosquito on the car larger than, smaller than, or equal to the force of the car on the mosquito? the force of the mosquito on the car is equal to the force of the car on the mosquito. the force of the mosquito on the car is smaller than the force of the car on the mosquito. the force of the mosquito on the car is larger than the force of the car on the mosquito. request answer provide feedback

The force exerted by the mosquito on the car is equal to the force of the car on the mosquito

Explanation:

Newton's third Law states that:

When an object A exerts a force on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

If we apply this law to the situation described in the problem, we have that:

The car (object A) exerts a force on the mosquito (object B), so the mosquito exerts an equal and opposite force on the car.

The reason why the car does not experience any effect due to the force exerted by the mosquito is the larger mass of the car. In fact, the acceleration experienced by an object is given by Newton's second law:

while F is the force exerted on the object and m is its mass. In this problem, both the car and the mosquito experience the same force F, however the car's mass is much larger than the mosquito's mass, therefore the car experiences a negligible acceleration compared to the mosquito.

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
