<h2>Answer: electrostatic and gravitational force </h2><h2 />

Mechanical energy remains constant (conserved) if only <u>conservative forces</u> act on the particles.  

In this sense, the following forces are conservative:  

-Gravitational  

-Elastic

-Electrostatics  

While the Friction Force and the Magnetic Force are not conservative.

According to this, mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Why is the answer B?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The center of mass lies on a line that joins position 4 of one start with position 4 of the other star.  The shortest distance between these two points will produce the largest velocity. You are using F = m v^2/R

Small R = large force.

Large Force = increased speed.

The masses don't have any effect on the outcome: they remain constant.

Explain why the shortening velocity became slower as the load became heavier in this experiment. how well did the results compar
valkas [14]
<span>The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity.</span>

A student witnesses a flash of lightning and then t=2.5s later the student hears assiciated clap of thunder. (please show work)
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

857.5 m

2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds

Explanation:

Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s

Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s

Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s

Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m

Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light

\text{Time taken by light}=\frac{857.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow  \text{Time taken by light}=2.8583\times 10^{-6}

Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds

2 forces are acting on a body. I forgot the body doesn't it's position or shape, the forces.......a)must be of equal magnitude b
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

only if there is a net force of zero, the body will not move

some people may say B but that is wrong because maybe one force is greater than the other so the object would still move even though the forces are in opposite directions and parallel
