C. Remain Constant

There are no forces to act upon the object; therefore it would remain in motion at a constant speed.

Explain how Newton’s second law of motion affects a game of Tug of War
notka56 [123]

Answer: Newton's second law of motion is F = ma or force is equal to the mass the reason this applies to Newton's third law is because When the game starts, both the sides are pulling the rope and neither side is moving. The force on the rope is the same on each side This is Newton's second law of motion which equates force as mass times acceleration.

An amount of work W is done on an object of mass m initially at rest, and as result it winds up moving at speed v. Suppose inste
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

W amount of work is done on the system such that it acquires v velocity after operation(initial velocity)

According to work energy theorem work done by all the forces is equal to change in kinetic energy of object

W=\frac{1}{2}mv^2---1

where m=mass of object

v=velocity of object

When the object is already have velocity v then the final speed is given by work energy theorem

W=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv^2-----2

From 1 and 2 we get

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv^2

2\times \frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2

v_f^2=2v^2

v_f=\sqrt{2}v

What is the velocity of an object that has a mass of 2.5 kg and a momentum of 1,000 kg · m/s?
N76 [4]
Using the momentum formula p=mv, it can be determined that v=p/m. Therefore 1000/2.5 = 400. The object is going 400m/s

Suppose that one day, you woke up and could not see the color red. Identify how the American flag would look to you.
Greeley [361]
I guess since I couldn't see red, I might see the red stripes as white or maybe not even see them at all.
