Answer:

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.

mixer [17]

<h2>ANSWER:</h2>

<u>The north pole</u>

The magnetic field of a bar magnet is strongest at either pole of the magnet. It is equally strong at the north pole when compared with the south pole. The force is weaker in the middle of the magnet and halfway between the pole and the center.

ATP molecules store cellular energy. When phosphate groups are removed and molecules of ADP are formed, energy is released. This

slava [35]

<span>Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.

If you are stopped, then get on a bike and accelerate 2 m/s/s south, what us your final velocity after 3 seconds? Please Explain

olga_2 [115]

Vf = Final velocity.
Vi = initial velocity
a = acceleration.
t = time

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 + (2 m/s^2)(3s)

Vf = 6 m/s south

Which of the following is correct for speed?

Olin [163]

Answer:

Speed is a "scalar" quantity

(C) is the correct answer

An object could travel at 10 m/s to some point and then return to the origin at 10 m/s for an average speed of 10 m/s, however it's displacement over that time would be zero for a net velocity of zero.

SashulF [63]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept related to the kinetic energy theorem. Said theorem states that the work done by the net force (sum of all forces) applied to a particle is equal to the change experienced by the kinetic energy of that particle. This is:

$\Delta W = \Delta KE$
