What is the net force on an object at rest?

Physics
2 answers:
Romashka [77]4 years ago

-- If it's at rest, then it's not accelerating.

-- If it's not accelerating, then the net force acting on it is <em>zero</em>. (See Newton's 2nd law of motion.)

Answer:

Net force equals 0

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that an object at rest tends to remain at rest, and an object in motion tends to remain in motion with a constant velocity (constant speed and direction of motion), unless it is acted on by a nonzero net force. Note that the net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object.

Scalars are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensio
Korolek [52]
The statement is false. Vectors are used to solve projectile motion problems because they allow the analysis of one direction at a time for two-dimensional motion. Scalar quantities can be used to analyze linear motion problem, but not projectile motion.

The spacing between the plates of a 1.0 μF capacitor is 0.050 mm. a) What is the surface area of the plates? b) How much charge
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

(a) surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(b) Charge on the capacitor is equal to 1.5\times 10^{-6}C

Explanation:

We have given spacing between the plates d = 0.05 mm = 5\times 10^{-5}m

Value of capacitance C=1\mu F=10^{-6}F

(A) Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is equal to C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}

So 10^{-6}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times A}{10^{-5}}

A=1.129m^2

So surface area of the plate will be equal to 1.129m^2

(B) It is given that capacitor is charged by 1.5 volt

So voltage V = 1.5 volt

Charge on the capacitor is equal to Q=CV

So Q=1.5\times 10^{-6}C

In order for work to take place the energy present must be related to the movement of the object.
kaheart [24]

This is another one of those muddy misleading questions, followed by
a muddy group of choices from which an answer must be selected.

a).  is absurd.  There's no such thing as a "balanced force", only
a balanced group of forces.

b).  is probably the choice the question is aiming for.

c).  is not so.  The engines of an airplane do plenty of work lifting the plane
off the ground, although the force of the engines is never directed upward.

d).  is really awkward.  The object's motion is almost never the cause of the force.
The force is almost always the cause of the object's motion.

Now for the big 800-lb gorilla in the room:  No moving object needs to be involved
in order for energy to be flowing or work to be getting done.

-- A radio wave radiates through space.  Straighten out a wire coat-hanger and
stick it up in the air where the radio wave can pass by it.  Electrical current flows
through the wire, and you can drain the electrical energy out the bottom of it.  

-- A light bulb is shining.  Some distance away, something it's shining on
gets warm, because of the heat energy that has shot across to it from the
light bulb and soaked into it.

-- A lightning bolt jumps from the ground to a passing cloud.  Or, if you feel
more comfortable with it, a lightning bolt jumps from a cloud to the ground.
It doesn't matter.  Either way, there's enough energy splashing around to
ignite houses, zap TVs and computers, melt concrete, vaporize water, and
light up a city.  Although nothing is moving.
