During which stage does the birth rate begin to decline?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

During stage 3 - late expanding (of demogrpahic transition model)

Explanation:

During stage 3, birth rate begins to decline as infant mortality is lower and women have more access to education, family planning, and contraceptives. Children are not needed as "free labor" as they might have been in earlier stages.

28. Which of the following correctly shows the order of highest amount of friction to the lowest amount of

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$\mathrm{d.\:Static,\: Sliding,\:Rolling}$

Explanation:

Static friction occurs when an object initially starts at rest. When the surfaces of the materials touch, the microscopic unevenness interlock greatest with each other, causing the most friction out of the three.

During sliding friction, an object is already moving or in motion. The microscopic surfaces still interlock, but because the object is in motion, it has a momentum. Therefore, the magnitude of sliding friction is less than that of static friction.

Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls across some surface. Rather than surfaces interlocking, rolling friction is caused by the constant distortion of surfaces. As it rolls, the surfaces of the object are constantly wrapping and changing. This distortion causes the rolling friction. However, it is much less in magnitude when compared to static or sliding friction.

A passenger in a helicopter traveling upwards at 15 m/s accidentally drops a package out the window. If it takes 15 seconds to r

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The helicopter was 1103.63 meters high when the package was dropped.

Explanation:

We consider positive speed as a downward movement

y: height (m)

t: time (s)

v₀: initial speed (m/s)

Δy = v₀t + $\frac{1}{2}$ gt²

Δy= 15 $\frac{m}{s}$ ×15 s + $\frac{1}{2}$ ×9.81 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ ×(15 s)²

Δy= 1103.63 m

The apparent weight of a student in alift is 564N . if the mass of the student is 60.3kg, what is the acceleration of the lift ?

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

-.457 m/s^2

Explanation:

Actual weight = 60 .3 (9.81) = 591.54 N

Accel of lift changes this to 60.3 ( 9.81 - L) where L - accel of lift

60.3 ( 9.81 - L ) = 564

solve for L = .457 m/s^2 DOWNWARD

so L = - .457 m/s^2

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car

juin [17]

Observer A is moving inside the train

so here observer A will not be able to see the change in position of train as he is standing in the same reference frame

So here as per observer A the train will remain at rest and its not moving at all

Observer B is standing on the platform so here it is a stationary reference frame which is outside the moving body

So here observer B will see the actual motion of train which is moving in forward direction away from the platform

Observer C is inside other train which is moving in opposite direction on parallel track. So as per observer C the train is coming nearer to him at faster speed then the actual speed because they are moving in opposite direction

So the distance between them will decrease at faster rate

Now as per Newton's II law

F = ma

Now if train apply the brakes the net force on it will be opposite to its motion

So we can say

- F = ma

$a = \frac{-F}{m}$

so here acceleration negative will show that train will get slower and its distance with respect to us is now increasing with less rate

It is not affected by the gravity because the gravity will cause the weight of train and this weight is always counterbalanced by normal force on the train

So there is no effect on train motion
