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.
Sorry if this is a little confusing to read I’m trying to answer it best I can without being confusing

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.

Algol consists of a 3.7 msun main-sequence star and a 0.8 msun subgiant. why does this seem surprising, at least at first?
Aleonysh [2.5K]
The two stars should be the same age, so we'd expect the subgiant to be more massive than the main-sequence star.

A hot air balloon has a mass of 300 k gincluding the basket. The hot air inside the balloon weighs 17,000 N. Determine the maxim
padilas [110]

Answer:

500 kg

Explanation:

If 17000 N hot air weight displaces 25000 N cold air weight, then the difference of 25000 - 17000 = 8000 N in weight would result in the buoyant force that lift the whole system.

If g = 10m/s2 then the total mass that it can lift (including the 300kg basket) is

8000 / 10 = 800 kg

So the maximum additional load that the balloon is able to lift is

800 - 300 = 500 kg

By experiment, determine what makes a force attractive or repulsive. Describe your experiments and observations with some exampl
kumpel [21]

Answer:

he combs are brought closer, each one has to move, therefore a force must be applied to each one, and the only force is electrostatic. force must have the same magnitude in each one and in the opposite direction; this description is equivalent to Newton's third law.

Explanation:

A very simple experiment that we can do is to rub a brush or plastic comb with a piece of paper, this creates some electrical charges in the comb, we hang the comb by a thread.

We take another comb and we form it with the same paper, when we bring the combs closer, we see that they repel each other, this is proof that the electrical charges created are of the same type.  

If now we rub the comb with another material, for example plastic, and bring it closer to the comb that is hanging, we see that they are approaching, therefore, it is proven that the load created from another type

With these two simple experiments it can be proved that electric charges are of two types, which are called positive and negative.  

4. In the previous experiment we see that when the combs are brought closer, each one has to move, therefore a force must be applied to each one, and the only force is electrostatic. If we observe carefully we see that the breaking of the combs is the same, therefore the force must have the same magnitude in each one and in the opposite direction; this description is equivalent to Newton's third law.
