The net force on the object is zero, so it has no acceleration. It moves in a straight line and at a constant speed (which may be zero).

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

c. hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior

Explanation:

Granulation is the grainy appearance of the solar photosphere produced by the top of the convection cells in the sun.

The grainy appearance are produced by granules on the photosphere of the sun and granules are caused by convection currents of plasma within the sun's convection zone.

The interior of these granules are brighter (and thus hotter) than the exterior of the granules which are darker.

<u>So, the granulation pattern that astronomers have observed on the surface of the Sun tells us that hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior.</u>

In each of the four situations below an object is experiencing (nearly) uniform circular motion. State what force is providing t
Stells [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that a centripetal force is a form of force that gives rise or causes a body to move in a curved path.

Hence;

1. When a car is being driven around a track, it is the FORCE OF FRICTION that is acting upon the turned wheels of the vehicle, which transforms into the centripetal force required for circular motion.

2. When a ball being is swung on the end of a string, TENSION FORCE acts upon the ball, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

3. When the moon is orbiting the earth, it is the FORCE OF GRAVITY acting upon the moon, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

4. A rotating wheel on the other hand has NO centripetal force because centripetal force is pull towards the center of a motion. However the speed of the object is tangent to the circle, while the direction of the force is also perpendicular to the direction of the rotating wheel.

A body of mass 40kg is accelerating at a
jok3333 [9.3K]
Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

Mass is constant, so the rate of change of momentum is
                        (mass) x (rate of change of speed) .

But (rate of change of speed ) is just acceleration.

So the rate of change of momentum is (mass) x (acceleration).

But (mass) x (acceleration) is Force.

So Force is the rate of change of momentum.    Verrrrrrrry interesting !

In this problem, Force = (40 kg) x (9 m/s²) = 360 newtons.

One 'Newton' is one kilogram-meter per second² .
Unit of momentum is (kilogram)-(meter per second), so 'newton'
is also a unit of time rate of change of momentum.

Rate of change of momentum is 360 momentum units per second.
