What is inertia?

Physics
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
4 0
Answer: C. The tendency of an object to maintain its state of motion.

Explanation: Newton’s first law: If a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind. (a) if it takes the bird 20.0 min to travel 6.00 km relative t
enot [183]

Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s

this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it

now in part a)

if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min

so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time

v_{avg} = \frac{6000}{20*60}

v_{avg} = 5m/s

now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say

V_{net} = v_{bird} - v_{wind}

5 = 9 - v_{wind}

v_{wind}= 4 m/s

Part b)

now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have

v_{net}= v_{bird} + v_{wind}

v_{net} = 9 + 4 = 13 m/s

now we can find the time to go back

time = \frac{distance}{speed}

time = \frac{6000}{13}

time = 7.7 minutes

Part c)

Total time of round trip when wind is present

T = t_1 + t_2

T = 20 + 7.7 = 27.7 min

now when there is no wind total time is given by

T = \frac{6000}{9} + \frac{6000}{9}

T = 22.22 min

So due to wind time will be more

A car starts from rest and travels for 5.8 s with a uniform acceleration of 1.6 m/s² in the negative direction. What is the fina
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Final velocity of the car will be -9.28 m/sec        

Explanation:

We have given that the car starts from the rest so initial velocity of the car u = 0 m /sec

Acceleration of the car a=1.6m/sec^2 in negative direction so acceleration will be a=-1.6m/sec^2

From first equation of motion we know that

v = u+at

So v=0+(-1.6)\times 5.8=-9.28m/sec

So final velocity will be -9.28 m/sec

Consider two samples of gas. Sample A consists of n moles and is kept at temperature T in container of volume V. Gas B consists
MrRissso [65]

Answer: e. P/2

Explanation:

For ideal gases, we have the relation:

P*V = n*R*T

where:

n =  number of mols

R = Gas constant

T = temperature

V = volume

P = pressure.

We know that for sample A, we have n moles, a temperature T and a volume V, then the pressure of this sample will be:

Pa = (n*R*T)/V.

For sample B, we have:

n/2 moles, temperature T/2 and a volume V/2, then the pressure will be:

Pb = (n/2)*R*(T/2)*(2/V) = (n*R*T/V)*(2/4)

and:

(n*R*T/V) = Pa

Then we can replace it and we get:

Pb = (n*R*T/V)*(2/4) = Pa*(2/4) = Pa*(1/2) = Pa/2.

Then the correct option is e.
