As long as the drivers apply the brakes appropriately, nothing bad will happen, and both cars will stop. The brakes of the more massive car will heat up a little more, because the more massive car has more momentum which will be dissipated as heat. Presumably, the engineers who designed the brakes took this into account.

How do air masses of different pressures and temperatures move around?

Air masses of different pressures and temperature move around the Earth. The cold air masses that form at the poles move toward the equator, while the warm air masses that form at the equator move toward the poles.


Why do air masses travel from the Polar Regions toward the Equator?

This is ultimately the result of temperature differences; the energy comes from sunlight. Note that air masses need to travel in BOTH directions, since the air can't just accumulate in one place.


Why do air masses tend to travel from polar regions toward the equator?

Air masses tend to travel from polar regions toward the equator due to the Earth's rotation and differences in temperature and pressure. The uneven heating of the Earth's surface causes warmer air to rise at the equator, creating low pressure, while cooler air in polar regions leads to high pressure. This pressure difference drives the movement of air masses in a process known as atmospheric circulation. Additionally, the Coriolis effect influences their paths, causing them to curve rather than move in a straight line.


What conclusion can you make about what effects the force of gravity when you travel to different planets?

The force of gravity on a planet is determined by its mass and radius. Therefore, when you travel to different planets, the force of gravity will vary depending on these factors. Planets with larger masses or radii will have stronger gravitational forces, while planets with smaller masses or radii will have weaker gravitational forces.


Is isriel north south east of west from the US?

The US is a big place. Starting from different places in the US, Israel is in different directions. For the shortest trip to Israel . . . -- Starting from New York City, Miami, or Chicago, travel toward the northeast. -- Starting from Los Angeles, travel toward the north-northeast, 7,540 miles. -- Starting from Anchorage, travel straight north, 5,970 miles. -- Starting from Honolulu, travel north-northwest, 8660 miles. Anchorage and Cleveland are almost exactly the same distance from Israel, but in different directions.


If you travel toward the north pole the direction that your facing is?

North of course! There is no other way to travel.


What happen to light ray that travel parallel to the optical axis as they pass through a convex len?

The rays are diffracted toward the center of the lens. This is the principal used in reading and magnifying glasses.


Why are plane travel times different in one direction than the return times?

There are a couple of factors. One is the rotation of the earth. Travelling west and the destination is moving toward you. Travel east and it is moving away from you. Another is the winds that affect flight.
