This would be an illustration of Newton's first law of motion. Law of inertia, an object moving at constant velocity will keep moving at constant velocity until a force is acted upon it. Inertia is the tendency of an object to keep moving in a particular direction resisting to change, unless a force acts upon the object.

Why is newton's first law of motion sometimes called the lae of inertia?
Masja [62]
Newton's 1st law of motion states that <span>an object at rest stays at rest and an object in uniform motion along a straight line stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. 
This law talks about the tendency of an object to resist any change in its state of rest or uniform motion, this is called Inertia. Thus Newton's 1st law of motion is also called the Law of Inertia</span>

A 89 kg bobsled is pushed along a horizontal surface by two athletes. After the bobsled is pushed a distance of 3.8 m starting f
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Net force, F = 205.59 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a bobsled, m = 89 kg

Initial speed of the bobsled, u = 0

Distance travelled, d = 33.8 m

Final speed of the bobsled, v = 12.5 m/s

To find,

The magnitude of the net force

Solution,

Let a is the acceleration of the bobsled. Using the third equation of kinematics as :

v^2-u^2=2ad

(12.5)^2=2a\times 33.8

a=2.31\ m/s^2

Let F is the magnitude of net force acting on the bobsled. It can be calculated as :

F=ma

F=89\ kg\times 2.31\ m/s^2

F = 205.59 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the net force acting on the bobsled is 205.59 N.

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?
m_a_m_a [10]

First, you need forces attracting the Sun and Earth toward each other.  That's described by Newton's law of universal gravitation.

Then you need the description of how that force causes the planet to move in a circular path.  The best choice is Newton's <em>Second law</em> of motion: F = m A .

A 500-watt vacuum cleaner is plugged into a 120-volt outlet and used for 30 minutes. How much current runs through the vacuum?
Ymorist [56]

     Power  =  (voltage) x (current)

       500 W  =  (120 v) x (current)

     Current  =  (500 w) / (120 v)  =  4-1/6 amperes .

Power and current are both rates.
Power is the rate of using energy ... joules per second.
Current is the rate of flowing charge ... coulombs per second.
Neither quantity depends on how long you keep it up.
They're both going on continuously while the vacuum is running.
