when an object is moving there is always a force pulling it in the direction of its motion?true or false? explain

This is false because an object can also be pushed by force and isn't always have to be pulled by a force.

2) Two ice skaters have masses m1 and m2 and are initially stationary. Their skates are identical. They push against one another
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

m_1 / m_2 = sqrt (1 / 2)

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial velocity of both skaters V_i = 0

- Velocity of skater 1 after push = V_1

- Velocity of skater  after push = V_2

- Distance traveled by skater 1 = s_1

- Distance traveled by skater 2 = s_2

- s_1 = 2*s_2

- Accelerations of both skaters to halt is equal

Find:

What is the ratio m1/m2 of their masses

Solution:

- Apply conservation of momentum for two skaters just before and after the push as follows:

                                              P_i = P_f

                                  0 = m_1*V_1 - m_2*V_2

- Evaluate:                 m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 )

- Apply Conservation of Energy on both skaters as follows:

- Skater 1:

                               0.5*m_1*V_1^2 = u_k*m_1*g*s_1

-Simplify:                      0.5*V_1^2 = u_k*g*(2*s_2)

- Skater 2:

                               0.5*m_2*V_2^2 = u_k*m_2*g*s_2

-Simplify:                      0.5*V_2^2 = u_k*g*s_2

- Divide the two energy equations for skaters:

                                    (V_1 / V_2)^2 = 2

                                    (V_2 / V_1)^2 = 1 / 2

- simplify:                     (V_2 / V_1) = sqrt (1 / 2)

-Hence from earlier momentum conservation results:

                                  m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 ) = sqrt (1 / 2)

Each element has an atomic number state which is meant by atomic number
netineya [11]

Answer: The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and isotopes have the same atomic number but differ in the number of neutrons. The number of protons in an atom is called its atomic number. This number is very important because it is unique for atoms of a given element. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons, and every element has a different number of protons in its atoms.

John dragged a wooden block across a table with 4 different surfaces and the results
AnnyKZ [126]

If the surface is rough then the average force needed to move the wooden block will be more as the friction between the surfaces will be more.

Hence, the least force will be required on the smoothest surface and the greatest force will be required for the roughest surface.

a) Hence, the order will be: B > D > A > C

b) When the surface is glued then the force of friction will increase. Hence, it will require more force to move the wooden block on the surface. Hence, the more required will be more than 105 N.

What are the properties of bungee gum,hmmm?
lys-0071 [83]
It’s both a solid and a liquid. It can thicken and soften depending on how it’s handled. It can be used to cover wounds to stop bleed, and used to drown enemies. Bungee Gum has the properties of both rubber and gum.

How to change this to mega and giga prefixes?urgent .thankyou
Akimi4 [234]
3*10^{8} m = 3*10^{5} km = 3*10^{2} Mm = 3*10^{-1} Gm

Each increase in the prefix is a division by 1000.
