3. Can there be forces acting on an object at rest? Explain why or why not.

Yes, because gravity always exerts a force whether an object is at rest or in motion. Gravity is the reason we aren’t all floating as cool as that would be we would probably be hit by a plane

What is kinematics ?<br>explain ~​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.

and/or

Kinematics is the study of motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how the momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.

A student jumps off a sled toward the NORTH after it stops at the bottom of an icy hill. Based on Newton's third law of motion,
zhuklara [117]

When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

A person driving her car at 48 km/h approaches an intersection just as the traffic light turns yellow. She knows that the yellow
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

She must stop the car  before interception, distance traveled 12.66 m

Explanation:

We will take all units to the SI system

Vo = 48Km / h (1000m / 1Km) (1h / 3600s) = 13.33 m / s

V2 = 70 Km / h = 19.44 m / s

We calculate the distance traveled before stopping

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

Time is what it takes traffic light to turn red  is t = 2.0 s

X = 13.33 2 + 1.2 (-7) 2²

X = 12.66 m

It stops car before reaching the traffic light turning to red

Let's analyze what happens if you accelerate, let's calculate the acceleration of the vehicle

     V2 = Vo + a t2

      a = (V2-Vo) / t2

      a = (19.44-13.33) /6.6

      a = 0.926 m / s2

This is the acceleration to try to pass the interception, now let's calculate the distance it travels in the time the traffic light changes from yellow to red (t = 2.0 s)

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

X = 13.33 2 + ½ 0.926 2²

X = 28.58 m

Since the vehicle was 30 m away, the interception does not happen

What happens to the force between the spheres when you increase the mass of one of the spheres?
andrew11 [14]

The force between the spheres increases when the mass increases in one of the spheres.

<u>Explanation:</u>

            Newton law of universal gravity extends gravity beyond the earth's surface. This gravity depends directly on the mass of both objects and is inversely proportional to square of distance between their centers.  

                   \bold{F=\frac{G \times\left(m_{1} \times m_{2}\right)}{\left(r^{2}\right)}}

          Since gravity is directly proportional to “mass of both interacting objects”, stronger objects with greater gravitational force attract. If the mass of one object increases, gravity between them also increases. For example, if an object's mass of one double, force between them also doubles.
