This B: False, because the definition is lacking.

Force is when two objects interact with one another causing it to either move or not move. In our daily lives there are a lot of times force is exerted upon us, rather force is everywhere and here are the evidences:

*Pushing a cart
*Pushing a wall
*Hitting a baseball bat
*Apple falling down from a tree.
*Balls hitting one another
*A swinging pendulum
*Throwing a paper with stone above it
*Breaking of glass in the floor
*Falling of leaves on the grass <span> </span>

A car traveling at a speed of 13 meters per second accelerates uniformly to a speed of 25 meters per second in 5.0 seconds. 11-

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

$a=2.4\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 13 m/s

Final speed of a car, v = 25 m/s

Time, t = 5 s

We need to find the acceleration of the car during this 5.0 second time interval. Let a is the acceleration. It can be calculated as :

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{25-13}{5}\\\\=2.4\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is $2.4\ m/s^2$ .

A box-shaped metal can has dimensions 5 in. by 19 in. by 4 in. high. All of the air inside the can is removed with a vacuum pump

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The force is $F = 1397 lb$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the box is $l = 19 \ in$

The width of the box is $w = 5 \ in$

The height is $h = 4\ in$

The pressure experience on one of the sides is mathematically represented as

$p = \frac{F}{A}$

Where A is the area of the box which is mathematically evaluated as

$A = l * w$

substituting values

$A = 5 *19$

$A = 95 \ in^2$

This pressure is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure which has a constant value of $p = 14.7 pi$

This implies that

$14.7 = \frac{F}{95}$

=> $F = 14.7 *95$

=> $F = 1397 lb$

Young's experiment is performed with light of wavelength 502 nm from excited helium atoms. Fringes are measured carefully on a s

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

wave length of light λ = 502 nm

screen distance D = 1.2 m

width of one fringe = 10.2 mm / 20

= .51 mm

fringe width = λ D / a , a is separation of slits

Puting the values given

.51 x 10⁻³ = 502 x 10⁻⁹ x 1.2 / a

a = 502 x 10⁻⁹ x 1.2 / .51 x 10⁻³

= 1181.17 x 10⁻⁶ m

1.18 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.18 mm .
