The forces acting on your mom while cooking is Air resistance and the force of friction

Explanation:

1. Air resistance:

In simple words, Air resistance can be stated as the type of friction between the air and the other materials.
In this scenario, there will be an air resistance and the air hits the mom while cooking via the doors or windows

2. The force of friction:

In simple words, friction can be stated as, the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.
While cooking the food mom would experience the friction since friction is the transfer of heat, and cooking is the process of receiving that heat.

When your mom is making lunch, the forces acting on your mom are gravity and normal force.

Explanation:

Gravity is the force exerted by earth on objects.The force of gravity is equal to the weight of the object. Movements or immobile positions on earth, all involves gravity and it is the gravitational force that enables you to stand still.Gravity is exerted in the downward direction.

Normal force acts on the upward direction opposite to the direction of gravity.When your mom is making lunch,gravity acts on her in the downward direction while an equal normal force acts in the upward direction.The gravity and normal force are balanced forces here.

A hockey puck is sliding at a constant rate of 2m/s on a frictionless surface. How fast will the puck be moving after 10 sec

AnnyKZ [126]

2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.

17. A volleyball weighs about 300 grams.

atroni [7]

Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

$\boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}$

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

m = 0.3 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
h = 15 m
PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}$

Replace and solve:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}$

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is 44.1 Joules.

Greetings.
