Not so fast.

I think you're using 'accelerating' to mean 'speeding up', but you really need
to be more careful with it. "Acceleration" means ANY change in speed OR
direction.

If an object's speed to the left is decreasing, or its speed to the right is
increasing, then the net force on the object must be directed towards
the right.

If an object is moving with constant speed in a circular path, then it's
constantly accelerating, because its direction is constantly changing.
The force on it is always directed towards the center of the circle, so
there's one point on the path where the force is directed straight to the right.

This is correct. Just think about it. If you push an object to the right then it will accelerate to the right.

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.

The position-time graph for a bug crawling along a line is shown in item 4 below. Determine whether the velocity is positive, ne
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: The velocity at different marked time points are given as

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Explanation:

The slope of the tangent of the curve indicates the instantaneous velocity. So if the slope of the tangent is positive, that Is, the tangent makes a positive angle (above the horizontal axis) with the horizontal

axis, then the velocity at this point is positive, and if the slope of the tangent is negative, that is the tangent makes a negative angle with the horizontal axis (below the horizontal axis), then the velocity at this point is negative.

When the tangent of the line is parallel to the horizontal axis, the velocity is 0.

From the position-time graph attached, the sign on the instantaneous velocity for each time marked on the graph is given below

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

A railroad car of mass M moving at a speed v1 collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars, each of the same mass M and m
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

vf = v₁/3 + 2v₂/3

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of linear momentum,

momentum before impact = momentum after impact

So, Mv₁ + 2Mv₂ = 3Mv (since the railroad cars combine) where v₁ = initial velocity of first railroad car, v₂ = initial velocity of the other two coupled railroad cars, and vf = final velocity of the three railroad cars after impact.

Mv₁ + 2Mv₂ = 3Mvf

dividing through by 3M, we have

v₁/3 + 2v₂/3 = vf

vf = v₁/3 + 2v₂/3
