Hi,

My best answer would be Gravity. Is it a multiple choice question? Or is it an essay question.

Pleaseeeee HELPPPP THIS IS TIMED ALSO,
TEA [102]

Answer:

Friction, normal force, and weight

Explanation:

If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.

Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)

Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.

A car travels due east with a speed of 52.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth
serg [7]

Answer:

a) v = 6.43 m/s

b) v = 15.8 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of car = 56 km/h

56 km/h = 14.4 m/s

Angle rain makes on the glass to the vertical = 66°

Thus knowing that the opposite side of the angle is the distance moved by the car, and the adjacent side is the distance traveled by the rain in the same time

both of which are directly proportional to their velocities

Then

tan(66°) = 14.44m/s ÷ x

or x = 14.44/tan(66°)

Which is the vertical raindrop velocity of the relative to earth

v = 6.43 m/s vertically towards earth

For v relative to the car is we have vector sum of both velocities

v = √(14.44^2 + 6.43^2) = 15.8 m/s which is the velocity relative to car

= 15.8 m/s

4. O/N 15/P11/Q11
anygoal [31]

Answer:

B) 4500 Pa

Explanation:

As pressure is force per unit area,

P = F/A

It stands to reason that the smallest pressure for a given force is when it is shared by the largest area.

The possible areas are

0.30(0.40) = 0.12 m²

0.30(0.50) = 0.15 m²

0.40(0.50) = 0.20 m²

The pressure when the face with the largest area (0.20 m²) is down is

P = 900 / 0.20 = 4500 N/m² or 4500 Pa

the other possible pressures would be

900/0.15 = 6000 Pa

900/0.12 = 7500 Pa

which are both larger than our solution.

How does the strong nuclear force hold the nucleus of an atom together?
erastovalidia [21]

The strong nuclear force holds the nucleus of an atom together.  

Somehow, it overcomes the electrical force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus, which all have the same charge but still stay close together somehow. (b)
