Name 2 forces acting on an object at rest Only need 1 got gravity

Physics
1 answer:
mote1985 [20]3 years ago
7 0

You mean like a box sitting on a table.

One force is the force of gravity, pulling downward on the box.

Now, you know that the forces acting on the box must be balanced, because
if they're not, then the box would be accelerating.  But it's just sitting there, so
there must be some other force, just exactly the right strength and direction to
exactly cancel the force of gravity on the box, so that the net force on it is zero.

The other force is the force of the table pushing upward on the box.  It's called
the "normal force".

The distance from the Earth to the Sun equals 1 AU. Neptune is 30 AU from the Sun. How far is Neptune from the Earth?AU
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Depending on the relative position of the Earth the Sun and Neptune in the Earths orbit the distances are;

The closest (minimum) distance of Neptune from the Earth is 29 AU

The farthest (maximum) distance of Neptune fro the Earth is 31 AU

Explanation:

The following parameters are given;

The distance from the Earth to the Sun = 1 AU

The distance of Neptune from the Earth = 30 AU

We have;

When the Sun is between the Earth and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;

Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 + 1 = 31 AU

When the Earth is between the Sun  and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;

Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 - 1 = 29 AU

Therefore, the closest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's Orbit is 29 AU

The farthest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's orbit is 31 AU.

A stone is dropped from the top a 45m hign building how fast will it moving when it reaches the ground? Ande what will its veloc
posledela

Answer:

29.7 m/s fast, velocity is 29.7 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v² = u²+2gs...................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.

Given: u = 0 m/s (dropped from height), s = 45 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2×9.8×45

v² = 882

v = √(882)

v = 29.7 m/s.

Hence the stone will be moving 29.7 m/s fast and the velocity is also 29.7 m/s

A block of aluminium of density 7900 kg/m3 has a volume of 250 cm. Find the<br>mass of the block.​
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

mass of block=2.7 gm

Explanation:

concept: Density=mass/volume

given:ρ=2700 kg/m^3 and v=250 cm^3 (in cm^3 not in m^3)

=> v= convert cm^3 to m^3

there fore= 1 cm^3=1 cm*1 cm*1 cm

i.e 1 cm^3=1/100*1/00*1/100 m^3 => 1 cm^3=1/1000000 m^3

ρ=m/v

=>mass=ρ*volume

=>mass=2700*1/10^-6

=>mass=2.7*10^-3 kg =>2.7 gm
