A bug hits a windshield of a moving car. Compared to the force of the car on the bug what is the force on the bug from the car?

The force of the car on the bug is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force of the bug on the car (Newton's Third Law). This means the bug exerts the same force on the car as the car exerts on the bug.


When a bug hits a windshield which is larger the force of the bug hitting the windshield or the?

A bug hits a windshield of a moving car. Compared to the deceleration of the car what and the deceleration of the bug?

When a bug hits the windshield of a moving car, the deceleration of the car is much less than that of the bug. This is because the mass of the car is significantly greater than that of the bug, resulting in a smaller change in velocity for the car upon impact. In contrast, the bug experiences a rapid and extreme deceleration as it comes to an almost complete stop upon hitting the windshield. Essentially, the bug undergoes a violent change in motion, while the car continues to move with relatively little change.


A small car like a Honda Civic is in a head-on collision with a Hummer Using Newtons Laws explain why the passengers in the small car are more likely to be injured than those in the Hummer?

In a collision both objects experience the exact same forces. The difference is the force threshold of each object. A hummer has a greater force threshold than a small car. The same idea is present when a bug hits a windshield. The bug hits the car with the same amount of force as the car hits the bug, but the bug has a much lower force threshold which is why it gets crushed.


A bug splatters against the windshield of a moving car compared to the force of the car on the bug what is the force of the bug on the car?

According to Newton's third law of motion, the force of the bug on the car is equal in magnitude to the force of the car on the bug. This means that the bug exerts the same force on the car as the car exerts on the bug when they collide.


A bug splatters against a moving car The force on the bug and the car is?

Newton's third law states that all actions provide an equal and opposite reaction. So, in this case, when the bug hits the car withx amount of force, it is hitting the car backward. So this must mean, according to Newton's third law, that the car is hitting the bug with the same (x) amount of force, but pushing the bug forward. Obviously, the bug won't push the car backwards, but since it is an equal reaction, the car won't push the bug away from it.


When a flying bug hits a moving train no effect is observed on the train because .?

Bugs do not weigh enough to cause any more effect than to splatter themselves on the front of the train.


When one bumper car hits another how does the reaction force effect the first car?

the car moves in the direction opposite of the action force


When a flying bug hits a moving train no effect is observed on the train because?

The mass of the train is significantly larger than the mass of the flying bug. The force exerted by the bug on the train is too small to produce a noticeable effect on the train's motion. Additionally, the train's momentum helps to absorb the impact without significant change in speed or direction.


What happens when bug poison gets in your mouth?

It depends on the type of bug, but it is unlikely to have a serious effect.


When a bug hits a windshield which is larger the force of the bug hitting the windshield or the force of the windshield hitting the bug Which is larger the change in momentum of the bug or the change?

The change


How are the size an direction of action- reaction forces related?

According to Newton's Third Law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So, action-reaction forces are equal in magnitude (size) and opposite in direction. For example, a bug hits the windshield of a car. The force of the car on the bug is equal to the force of the bug on the car. The accelerations of the two are obviously different, because acceleration depends on mass. Unintuivie, but true.
