The conclusions that are specifically supported by the data in Table 1 is that An increase in the number of rubber bands causes an increase in the acceleration. That is option D.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration is defined as the rate at which the velocity of a moving object changes with respect to time which is measured in meter per second per second (m/s²).

From the table given,

Trial 1 ----> 1 band = 0.24m/s²

Trial 2 ----> 2 bands = 0.51 m/s²

Trial 3 ----> 3 bands = 0.73 m/s²

Trial 4 -----> 4 bands = 1.00 m/s²

This clearly shows that increase in the number of bands increases the acceleration of one brick that was placed on the cart.

This is because increasing the number of rubber bands has the effect of doubling the force leading to an effective increase in velocity of the moving cart.

Which of the following is a contact force?
Nutka1998 [239]
The contact force is indeed caused by "Contact". 

Air resistance is basically a type of friction, which is apparently present providing two object contact.

The rest selections are all interaction force, which is not necessarily caused by contact.

The force of replusion between two like charged particles will increase if​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The distance of separation is decreased

Explanation:

From Cuolomb's law, we know that the strength of charge is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the charges. To mean that increasing the distance let's say from 2m to 3 m would mean initial strength getting form 1/4 to 1/9 which is a decrease. The vice versa is true hence the force of repulsion can increase only when we decrease the distance of separation.

A major difference between AC and DC electricity is that A) the current in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction. B)
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

A) the current in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

C) the voltage in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

Explanation:

In DC current and voltage the direction of current will not change with time and it always remains the same.

So here in DC voltage and DC current the magnitude may change with time but the direction will always remain same

While in AC voltage and AC current the direction of AC will change with time

periodically.

So here magnitude and direction both will change in AC current and AC voltage.

so the correct answer is

A)     the current in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

C) the voltage in AC electricity varies in magnitude and direction.

The static frictional force between a 95-kilogram object and the floor is 45 Newtons. The kinetic frictional force is only 22 Ne
Lisa [10]

Answer:

F = 69.5 [N]

Explanation:

We must remember that the friction force is defined as the product of the normal force by the coefficient of friction, and it can be calculated by the following expression.

f=N*miu

where:

N = normal force [N]

miu = friction coefficient

f = friction force = 22 [N]

Now we must calculate the force exerted by means of Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F - f = m*a

where:

F = force exerted [N]

f = friction force [N]

m = mass = 95 [kg]

a = acceleration = 0.5 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

F - 22 = 95*0.5\\F = 47.5 + 22\\F = 69.5 [N]
