Why forces are balanced and unbalanced? need help with this the lesson is tommorow

"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way. 

-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down.  It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.

-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move.  The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.

-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her.  If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.

From these examples, you can see a few things:

-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.

-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.

-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.

Because the way it's being set down on . It's like newtons law, what stays at rest stays unless an outside force does something.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.62 km due east, 0.246 km due south, and 3.08 km in a direction 50.4 ° north
Liula [17]

Answer:

Displacement CO=2.15 Km

Average velocity = 1.99 Km/h

Explanation:

Given

Total time = 1.08 h

OA= 1.62 Km

AB=0.246 Km

BC=3.08 Km

θ=50.4°

CE=3.08 sin50.4° =2.37 Km

BE=3.08 cos50.4° =1.96 Km

CE=AB+OD

OD=CE-AB

OD=2.37-0.246

OD=2.124 Km

BE=CD+OA

CD=BE-OA

CD=1.96-1.62

CD=0.34 Km

Now CO

CO=\sqrt{CD^2+OD^2}

CO=\sqrt{0.34^2+2.124^2}

CO=2.15 Km

So the displacement CO=2.15 Km

Average velocity =Displacement/Time

Average velocity = 2.15/1.08 Km/h

Average velocity = 1.99 Km/h

Moving by short leaps on one foot at a time.
Evgen [1.6K]

The answer is:

Hopping.

Explanation:

Hopping is done by taking off on one foot and landing back on that same foot. Hopping is done in shorter intervals, meaning you usually don't travel large distances through a single hop. Hopping is categorized as short leaps for its small distance covered singularly, and each hop is done only on one foot.

<em>(Think about if one of your feet/legs is injured or asleep. If you wanted to go from say the living room to the kitchen, but didn't wish to move that leg or foot, you would likely hop on one foot to get to the destination.)</em>

Solutions with ions that react with acids or bases to lessen their effects are fubrefs
Softa [21]

Answer:

Buffers

Explanation:

A buffer solution is a solution containing weak acids and their salts or weak bases and their salts.

A buffer solution is an equilibrium system that resists changes in pH or pOH when a small amount of an acid or base is added hence it is a solution of fairly constant pH value.
