How can we tell when forces are acting on an object (science)

Physics
1 answer:
iren [92.7K]3 years ago
4 0

If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,
then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of
these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be <em><u>a group</u></em> of forces (two or more) acting on
an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When
that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed
is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not
possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it.

If Joe rides his bike for 15 minutes at 20 km/hour south, how far has he ridden? (Give the answer in km) Watch the units!
Virty [35]

Answer:

Distance covered by Joe, d = 5 km

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of Joe, v = 20 km/hour

Time taken by Joe, t = 15 minutes = 0.25 h

We need to find the distance he is covering. It can be calculated using definition of speed as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

d=v\times t

d=20\times 0.25

d = 5 km

So, Joe covers a distance of 5 km. Hence, this is the required solution.
