Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.

Physics
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]2 years ago

Answer:

C

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.

When is the velocity of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

A.  when the mass has a displacement of zero

Explanation:

The velocity of a mass on a spring can be calculated by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the total energy of the mass-spring system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) of the spring and the kinetic energy (K) of the mass:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the mass with respect to the equilibrium position of the spring

m is the mass

v is the velocity of the mass

Since the total energy E must remain constant, we can notice the following:

- When the displacement is zero (x=0), the velocity must be maximum, because U=0 so K is maximum

- When the displacement is maximum, the velocity must be minimum (zero), because U is maximum and K=0

Based on these observations, we can conclude that the velocity of the mass is at its maximum value when the displacement is zero, so the correct option is A.

A 30-cm long string, with one end clamped and the other free to move transversely, is vibrating in its second harmonic. The wave
Ann [662]

Answer:

\lambda = 40 cm

Explanation:

given data

string length = 30 cm

solution

we take here equation of length that is

L = n \times \frac{1}{4} \lambda     ...............1

so

total length will be here

L = \frac{\lambda}{2} +  \frac{\lambda}{4}\\

L = \frac{3 \lambda }{4}

so \lambda  will be

\lambda = \frac{4L}{3}\\\lambda = \frac{4\times 30}{3}

\lambda = 40 cm

Please help! Will give thanks and branliest!!!!

<span>The two factors that act on parachutes are gravity and air resistance, which is also called drag. Gravity acts as a force to pull parachutes down to the surface of the Earth, while air resistance generates movement in the opposite direction of the falling parachute, and essentially pushes the parachute upward. hope this helps!:)</span>
