Ryan is driving his car to band practice. his speed is 55 mph. splat! a bug smashes against the windshield, and bug "guts" are everywhere. gross! which scenario is true?

a. the windshield exerts a greater force on the bug than the bug exerts on the windshield.
b. the bug exerts a greater force on the windshield than the windshield exerts on the bug.
c. the force that the windshield exerts on the bug and the force that the bug exerts on the windshield are the same magnitude.

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Every point mass attracts every single other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting both points. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In magnitude, the force they apply each other is the same. Therefore, the force that the windshield exerts on the bug and the force that the bug exerts on the windshield are the same magnitude.

the maxium height is 34m/s

distance = 150m

displ = root (50 ^2 + 100^2)

root(2500+10000)

root 125000
