Answer:

A. Mass

Explanation:

Inertia of an object is the resistance of the object to any change in its state of motion: it means that if an object is at rest, it tends to stay at rest for inertia (unless a net force acts on it), and if it is moving, it tends to continue moving with the same velocity, for inertia.

The inertia also describes how difficult it is to stop/accelerate an object, and it is directly proportional to the mass of the object: in fact, the larger the mass of an object, the more difficult it is to change its state of motion, and this means it has greater inertia.

Which type of force can be in the same it opposite direction?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

C) unbalanced

Explanation:

Equal forces acting in opposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the net force is zero.

Suppose you first walk 12.0 m in a direction 20? west of north and then 20.0 m in a direction 40.0? south of west. how far are y

Gnesinka [82]

The representation of this problem is shown in Figure 1. So our goal is to find the vector $\overrightarrow{R}$ . From the figure we know that:

$\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |=12m \\ \\ \left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |=20m \\ \\ \theta_{A}=20^{\circ} \\ \\ \theta_{B}=40^{\circ}$

From geometry, we know that:

$\overrightarrow{R}=\overrightarrow{A}+\overrightarrow{B}$

Then using vector decomposition into components:

$For \ A: \\ \\ A_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |sin\theta_A=-12sin(20^{\circ})=-4.10 \\ \\ A_y=\left | \overrightarrow{A} \right |cos\theta_A=12cos(20^{\circ})=11.27 \\ \\ \\ For \ B: \\ \\ B_x=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |cos\theta_B=-20cos(40^{\circ})=-15.32 \\ \\ B_y=-\left | \overrightarrow{B} \right |sin\theta_B=-20sin(40^{\circ})=-12.85$

Therefore:

$R_x=A_x+B_x=-4.10-15.32=-19.42m \\ \\ R_y=A_y+B_y=11.27-12.85=-1.58m$

So if you want to find out how far are you from your starting point you need to know the magnitude of the vector $\overrightarrow{R}$ , that is:

$\left | \overrightarrow{R} \right |=
\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}=\sqrt{(-19.42)^2+(-1.58)^2}=\boxed{19.48m}$

Finally, let's find the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position. What we are looking for here is an angle that is shown in Figure 2 which is an angle defined with respect to the positive x-axis. Therefore:

 $\theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{\left | R_y \right |}{\left | R_x \right |}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+tan^{-1}(\frac{1.58}{19.42}) \\ \\ \theta_R=180^{\circ}+4.65^{\circ}=185.85^{\circ}$

An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 18.8-V battery and charges up. The capacitor is then d

Basile [38]

Answer:

$p.d' = 37.6 V$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Potential difference $p.d=18.8V$

New Capacitor $C_1=C_2/2$

Generally the equation for Capacitor capacitance is mathematically given by

$C=\frac{eA}{d}$

Generally the equation for New p.d' is mathematically given by

$C_2V=C_1*p.d'$

$p.d' = 2V$

$p.d'= 2 * 18.8$

$p.d' = 37.6 V$

What is the speed of sound in air at 40°C? 355 m/s 307 m/s 331 m/s 239 m/s

Vikki [24]

This is not a good answer, because some one t o forgot to tell us the important temperature, and the given atmospheric pressure "at sea level" makes really no sense. In SI units with dry air at 20°C (68°F), the speed of sound c is 343 meters per second (m/s).
