Less force will be necessary to overcome inertia for the 80 kg piece of furniture.

Force is a factor that has the power to alter an object's motion. A massed object's velocity can be changed or accelerated by a force. A push or a pull is a straightforward method to explain forces.

The term "moment of inertia" refers to the quantity that describes how a body resists angular acceleration and is calculated by multiplying each particle's mass by its square of the distance from the rotational axis.

I = mr², where m is the mass of the object and r is the distance to the rotation axis.

Therefore, The inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

So, as the mass increases the inertia increases.

Therefore, 80 kg piece of furniture will require less force to overcome inertia.

An airplane flying at an altitude of 6 miles passes directly over a radar antenna. When the airplane is 10 miles away (s = 10),

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

altitude of the Plane $h=6\ miles$

When Airplane is $s=10\ miles$ away

Distance is changing at the rate of $\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}=290\ mph$

From diagram we can write as

$h^2+x^2=s^2$

differentiate above equation w.r.t time

$2h\frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}+2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}$

as altitude is not changing therefore $\frac{\mathrm{d} h}{\mathrm{d} t}=0$

$0+x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=s\frac{\mathrm{d} s}{\mathrm{d} t}$

at $s=10\ miles\ and\ h=6\ miles$

substitute the value we get $x=\sqrt{10^2-6^2}=8\ miles$

$8\times \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=10\times 290$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=362.5\ mph$

You can comfortably hold your fingers close beside a candle flame, but not very close above the flame. why? challenge (optional)

Inessa05 [86]

The candle flame releases hot gases, which directly go in upwards directions. Due to which the air near the flame of the candle is very hot and dense. The particles along with vapour move up. And since the sideways, the air is not very dense and hot, we are able to hold the candle. In anti-gravity region, there will be no density differences and also, the convection process wont occur. So, the candle quickly snuffs off.

An unstable nucleus which has a tendency to spontaneously change its form with the emission of high-energy particles or photons

Pepsi [2]

Answer:Radioactive

Explanation:

The radioactive nucleus is the one which does not has enough binding energy to hold the nucleus in a stable state and thus radiates either electron or proton to become a stable element.

A radioactive element is formed when after billions of years such as uranium and thorium. The stability of the nucleus depends upon the opposition of attractive and repulsive force among the nucleus.
