Answer:

Explanation:

1. When the block moves across a table top, F(pulling) = - F(frictional).

Sum of this forces = 0, so the block moves with uniform speed.

2. When the block is pulled on top of the table covered with beads

F(pulling) > - F(frictional).

So, the sum of forces (∑F) is a number that is more than 0 and directed to the direction of movement.

So, a = ∑F / m is positive and constant. Speed is increasing because

v(t) = v(0)+at

a is constant and directed forward.

That means a is acceleration, and constant.

. How does the intensity of sunlight received affect Earth’s temperatures?

leonid [27]

When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). Therefore, the solar radiation is concentrated over a smaller surface area, causing warmer temperatures.

a light bulb has a resistance of 360 . what is the current in the bulb when it has a potential difference of 120 v across it? 0.

xenn [34]

Presume we are looking for the current:

V = IR

120 = I*360

120/360 = I

1/3 = I

I = 1/3 = 0.333..

Current ≈ 0.33 Ampere.

The rate at which light energy is radiated from a source is measured in which of the following units?

Over [174]

The correct option is D.
Lumen is used to quantify the amount of total light energy that a source is putting out in all direction, thus, it refers to luminous output of a light source. Initial lumen refers to the luminosity of a light when it was first turned on; the luminosity is highest at this point.

Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard.

Vikentia [17]

The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the Third law that states:

When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

 $FA = -FB$
