Which law of motion is applicable to a moving car that makes it likely that it will be damaged when it collides with a truck?
The principle that might apply here is momentum. Momentum is mass times velocity. What should be pointed out is that velocity is speed that has a direction vector. (If the car is moving ahead in a straight line it is traveling at "x" miles per hour "forward".) The car is moving forward and comes into contact with the truck. That seems to be where the question is looking. The mass of the car times its velocity is its momentum, and this represents the energy that it is carrying into the collision. This energy will have end up being distributed among the various parts and components of the car and the truck that are compressed, deformed and/or broken by the collision. The amount of damage will be proportional to the momentum. The more the momentum (the more the "forward" energy) of the car, the more compression, deformation and breakage there will be.

What else can I help you with?
Describe the likely motion of an unrestrained rear seat passenger in a car which collides with a tree at 60 kilometres per hour?
The passenger would move forward, and either hit the seat or the windshield due to the inertia of the passenger (tendency to not change motion).
Can a motion to quash be applicable in an eviction?
Yes
Does newton law of motion applicable for human body?
Yes, Newton's laws of motion are applicable to the human body. For example, when walking or running, our body experiences forces in accordance with Newton's laws, such as the third law of motion which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
If a car is backing into a parking space and collides with the car that behind it that is motionless and has nowhere to go who is at fault?
The car that is in motion is ALWAYS at fault.
What does force and motion have in difference?
the concept of force is applicable when considering an interaction between multiple bodies. the concept of motion on the other hand is applicable for multiple non-interacting bodies.(multiple because we require a frame of reference)
When can the kinematic equation be used, and what condition must be met for it to be applicable?
The kinematic equation can be used to calculate an object's motion when it moves with constant acceleration. The condition that must be met for it to be applicable is that the acceleration of the object remains constant throughout its motion.
What is the motion of plates in a subduction zone?
In a subduction zone, the dense, cold oceanic plate collides with the lighter, warmer continental plate and is forced down underneath it into the mantle. The motion is downwards and the force is called "slab pull".
If a tow truch is towing a car and the tow truck stops abruptly and the car collides with it what is the relation between the forces on both vehicles?
1st law of motion
Why newton equations are not applicable in rocket porportion and projectile motion?
The question is based on an incorrect understanding of Newton's laws. They are applicable in both examples - at least in their simplified models.
Heat is conducted when one atom or molecule collides with?
Heat is conducted when one atom or molecule collides with and transfers energy to another atom or molecule.
What collides with pollen grains to cause the zigzag action of Brownian motion?
Pollen grains collide with water molecules, which results in the zigzag motion known as Brownian motion. The constant collisions from water molecules exert random forces on the pollen grains, causing them to move in unpredictable paths.
How gas exerts pressure on the side of its container?
The molecules of the gas are in constant motion and their collisions with the sides of the container exerts a force which is felt as pressure.
