Answer:

move at constant velocity.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (also known as law of inertia) states that:

"when the net force acting on an object is zero, the object will keep its state of rest or if it is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity".

In the case of the probe, friction in deep space is negligible, therefore when the engine is shut down, there are no more forces acting on the probe: the net force therefore will be zero, so the probe will move at constant velocity.

Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.

Answer:

μ = 0.309

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.

θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰

In the vertical direction:

N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N

law of conservation of energy implies

mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)

100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)

150.6 - 1940μ = 450

- 1940μ = -600.6

μ = 0.309
