In Newton's First Law of Motion, it is stated : 
"an object in motion will stay in motion and in the same direction until acted upon by an opposing force."
It is also applied to objects NOT in motion :
"An object at rest will stay at rest until acted upon by an unbalanced force."
Your question asks if "According to newton's first law of motion, it is true that an object moving at a constant speed in a straight path will continue to do so until a net force acts upon it. True or false?"
This is true.
I hope this helps!

A force of 9 pounds stretches a spring 1 foot. A mass weighing 6.4 pounds is attached to the spring, and the system is then imme
mart [117]

Answer:

\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}+\frac{\beta}{m}\frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{k}{m}x=0

Explanation:

let m be the mass attached, let k be the spring constant and let \beta be the positive damping constant.

-By Newton's second law:

m\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}=-kx-\beta \frac{dx}{dt}

where x(t) is the displacement from equilibrium position. The equation can be transformed into:

\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}+\frac{\beta}{m}\frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{k}{m}x=0  shich is the equation of motion.

As part
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Part a)

a = 3.68 m/s^2

Part b)

a = 11.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

Part a)

For force conditions of two blocks we will have

m_1g - T = m_1 a

T - m_2g = m_2 a

now from above equations we have

(m_1 - m_2) g = (m_1 + m_2) a

a = \frac{m_1 - m_2}{m_1 + m_2} g

now we know that

m_1 = \frac{908}{9.8} = 92.65 kg

m_2 = \frac{412}{9.8} = 42 kg

now from above equation we have

a = \frac{92.65 - 42}{92.65 + 42}(9.8)

a = 3.68 m/s^2

Part b)

When heavier block is removed and F = 908 N is applied at the end of the string then we have

F - mg = ma

908 - 412 = 42 a

a = 11.8 m/s^2

Why does sodium chloride and magnesium chloride conduct electricity?
mihalych1998 [28]
They only conduct when they are in solution form, because then their ions become mobile, and the ions conduct electricity.
