If no other forces ever act on the spacecraft, it will continue moving at 32,500 mi/h in the same direction, because forces are not required for an object to continue its motion.

The spacecraft will  eventually curve away from a straight line, and its speed will change, as it comes within the gravitational influence of one or more of the objects out there in the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud.

If no other forces act on the object, according to Newton’s first law, the spacecraft will continue moving at a constant velocity, assuming that a planet or something with large mass doesn’t cross its path. Forces are not required to continue the motion of an object on a frictionless plane at a constant rate.

How much energy becomes unavailable for work in an isothermal process at 440 k, if the entropy increase is 25 j/k?
just olya [345]
Answer: 11,000 J

Explanation:

In an isothermal process,

\text{entropy increase} =  \frac{\text{amount of energy in heat transfer}}{\text{temperature} }  (1)

Note that, the energy used in heat transfer is not available for work. So, the amount of energy unavailable for work is equal to the energy used in heat transfer.

To obtain the amount of energy in heat transfer, we multiply both sides of equation (1) by the denominator of the right side of (1) so that 

amount of energy in heat transfer = (entropy increase)(temperature)
                                                      = (25 J/K)(440 K)
                                                      = 11,000 J

Since the amount of energy unavailable for work is equal to the amount of energy in the heat transfer, therefore the amount of energy unavailable for work is 11,000 J.

When the flashlight is in the air and the refracted ray enters the water, how does the angle of refraction compare with the angl
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The refracted angle will be less than the angle of incidence and the speed of light is slower in the new medium (which is water) and is closer to the normal.

Try remembering this by using FST SFA (Fast Sofa)

                                             Fast -> Slow = Towards the normal

                                             Slow -> Fast = Away from normal

What objects do balanced forces act on?
leva [86]

Answer: Stationary or constant velocity

Explanation:

Objects with balanced forces acting on them experience no change in motion, or no acceleration. So these objects could either be stationary at rest or have a constant velocity. These include a hanging object, a floating object, an object on a table that doesn't move, and a car moving at a constant 10 mph
