Question

samir drives his car around a corner and then onto the expressway. which statement describes how newtons first law of motion is involved in this interaction? the tires exert a rightward force on the ground that has the same magnitude as the leftward force exerted by the ground on the tires. as samir turns left around the corner, the air freshener that hangs from his mirror sways to the right. after turning, twice as much force is required to accelerate samir to 60 mph in 4 seconds than in 8 seconds.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (law of inertia) states that an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an un - balanced force. When Samir turns left around the corner, the air freshener, due to its inertia, wants to continue moving in a straight line, so it sways to the right. The first option is Newton's third - law (action - reaction) and the third option is related to Newton's second law (F = ma).

Answer:

As Samir turns left around the corner, the air freshener that hangs from his mirror sways to the right.
