How the forces makes effect on the state of motion of an object ? <br><br> Plz ans fast urgent
Ksju [112]

Answer:

1. It may change the direction of an object in motion.

2. It may cause change in velocity of an object in motion.

Explanation:

1.It may change the direction of an object in motion.

When an object is in motion,an applied force on that object may change its direction.

For example, a sailboat moving eastward, can suddenly change its direction by interaction of a storm wind blowing form the south.

2. It may cause change in velocity of an object in motion .

A force applied to an object in motion can increase or decrease its speed. When the force is applied to the object in motion in the direction of that object, its velocity may increase.

On the other hand, when the force is applied in the opposite direction to the object in motion, its velocity may reduce.

What is the distance between a(-6,3),b(-2,4),c(-8,3)​
Schach [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

Appears to be the vertexes of a triangle.

AB = √(-6 - (-2))² + (3 - 4)²) = √17

AC = √(-6 - (-8))² + (3 - 3)²) = 2

BC = √(-2 - (-8))² + (4 - 3)²) = √37

How can you tell which substances are creating the light of the sun or a lightbulb?
Westkost [7]
Through spectroscopy.  Each atom in a gas absorbs and emits light at very specific and unique frequencies.  Heating up a gas causes it to glow at these frequencies. If you put the light from a mercury lamp, for example, through a prism there will not be a rainbow.  There will only be specific bands of light at certain colors.  
On the other hand, white light comes from the sun.  The inner part of the sun creates white light as it isn't just a gas state (this specific choosing of frequencies is a gaseous phenomenon) but the atmosphere of the sun is a gas.  So when the white light passes through it, it absorbs specific frequencies specific to the elements in the gas.  These get scattered (released at random directions) and so many of them don't reach our telescopes.  So in a rainbow from stars (including the sun) have dark bands at specific frequencies.  You need equipment to focus and see the spectrum closely to notice this.  But the missing frequencies are the EXACT frequencies that the gas of the sun's atmosphere would release if heated in a lamp.  
So based on what light is emitted (in gas bulbs) or missing from a spectrum (from stars) we can tell what elements are present there.

A 10.0 m wire is hung from a high ceiling and held tightly below
yan [13]

Answer:

5 m

Explanation:

Speed of waves is as the product of frequency and wavelength hence expressed as s=fw where f is the frequency of waves in Hz, s is the speed in m/s and w is wavelength in meters.

Making w the subject of the formula then

w=\frac {s}{f}

Substituting 335 m/s for s and 67 Hz for f then the wavelength is

w=\frac {335}{67}=5m

Wavelength is the distance between successive crests. Since the string is 10m, wavelengths of 5m each will be 2 and the crests will be 3.

Wavelenth=5 m
