Answer:
Force
If you're taking classical physics, simply stated, a force is a push or a pull of some sort. But there is one other very important thing to understand about Force. A true Force is always an interaction (at least from a classical perspective). That means that forces always come in pairs. This is stated in Newton's Third Law (equal and opposite forces). Every action must have a reaction. This is required for all true forces. Another consequence of this is that force is a vector, meaning it has a magnitude and a direction. The action and reaction will always be opposite in direction.
A lot of people will say F=ma. This is true. However, it is important to keep in mind that this definition is a calculational tool. It is more precise to say the Sum of all forces=ma. The point is that ma is not a force. Forces are things like weight, tension, normal, friction, gravity, electrostatic, magnetic, and various other applied forces. The sum of forces on an object equals the product of its mass times its acceleration.
It is important to keep in mind that the force is on the object that accelerates. Another way to state this is that objects cannot accelerate themselves. You cannot push yourself back (or forwards). But if you push a heavy object like a desk forwards, then the desk can push you back.
Energy
There are many kinds of energy. There are two important things to know.
Energy is the ability to do work. It doesn't mean work is being done, but that work can be done. (So you can see there is an intimate relationship between work and energy).
Energy is conserved. That means the total amount of energy is always constant. If the energy is a system changes somehow, that means some work was done in order to move the energy from one system to another.
Energy is also a scalar (given that Work is a scalar).
Answer:
c) curves downward, below the initial velocity vector
Explanation:
A projectile is usually launched from a height, where it is launched with an initial velocity. From that point the gravitational force begins to act on the projectile causing it to decay. As time passes, the projectile advances but its height decreases. So its trajectory is curved downward, below the initial velocity vector.
Answer: 2400m
Explanation: 2400m because 600 times 4 equals 2400
Efficiency is completing a task as fast a possible the the least amount of effort.
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
The spring force is given as:
F = kd
F is the spring force
K is the spring constant
d is the magnitude of the stretch
Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.
Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.
