Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,
then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of
these things to happen.
Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on
an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced". When
that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed
is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line. In that case, it's not
possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it
It increases confidence because the more times you conduct the same experiment over and over should either prove your hypothesis right and wrong and eliminate any random occurrences that might affect your results.
I think it’s 15cm
Might be 7cm
The 'formulas' to use are just the definitions of 'power' and 'work':
Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)
and
Work = (force) x (distance) .
Combine these into one. Take the definition of 'Work', and write it in place of 'work' in the definition of power.
Power = (force x distance) / (time)
From the sheet, we know the power, the distance, and the time. So we can use this one formula to find the force.
Power = (force x distance) / (time)
Multiply each side by (time): (Power) x (time) = (force) x (distance)
Divide each side by (distance): Force = (power x time) / (distance).
Look how neat, clean, and simple that is !
Force = (13.3 watts) x (3 seconds) / (4 meters)
Force = (13.3 x 3 / 4) (watt-seconds / meter)
Force = 39.9/4 (joules/meter)
<em>Force = 9.975 Newtons</em>
Is that awesome or what !
