5N to the left. This is because Jeremy pushes 10 to the left but Amanda does 5, making 5 of the 10 go away. This leaves 5 to the left. So... The answer is C.

Its letter C. 5N to the left. Since Jeremy's force in Newtons are higher than Amanda's (in newtons), and since Jeremy's force directs to the left, then the direction of the force will be to the LEFT. Then subtract the higher one to the lower one so that would be: 10N-5N=5N. So it is C. 5N to the left.

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act onit: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the ot
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.

This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.

The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.

A child aims his air rifle at an angle of 10 degrees above the horizontal. he fires a bb while simultaneously dropping another b
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The b-b at rest will hit the ground first

Explanation:

When the first b-b is shot at angle it will first experience some horizontal force of air resistance before it experience another vertical force of resistance when going done while the second b-b only experiences the vertical force of resistance making reach the ground faster.
