Two figure skaters, one weighing 625 N and the other 725 N, push off against each other on frictionless ice. If the heavier skat

The lighter one travel with the speed of 0.574 m/sec. Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pull applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

The two skaters push off against each other on frictionless ice, then torque act by the one skater on the other is equal.

P₁₂=P₂₁

F₁₂V₁ =F₂₁V₂

625 ×V₁= 725 N×  1.5 m/s

V₁=0.574 m/sec

Hence, the lighter one travel with the speed of 0.574 m/sec.

stealth61 [152]

Answer: static electricity

Explanation:

When the plastic ruler is rubbed, friction opposes the motion and causes the transfer of electron from one surface to another such that plastic becomes negatively charged. When ruler is brought nearer to the paper, it induces the   positive charge in the piece of paper.

1)what is the definition of moment of inertia?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Moment of inertia is the inertia of a rotating body with respect to its rotation. So basically it's the object's resistance to a rotational acceleration. This relates to Newton's first law! What does that exactly mean? Let's check out the explanation.

One formula that it is written in is I= mrx^{2}

Explanation:

As Bill Nye says, "Inertia is a property of matter. Objects that are not moving don't move unless they get pushed or pulled. Moving objects keep moving unless they get pushed or pulled. This feature of objects and materials is what we call inertia."

I would check out Dan Fullerton's concept
