Answer:the rate of change in velocity

Explanation: acceleration =the change in velocity / time taken the unit is m/s2

While velocity is the distance traveled in a given direction/time taken.the unit is m/s

Answer:

Daylight hours would be shorter.

Explanation:

If there were no tilt of the axis at all, every place on the planet except the north and south poles would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night every day of the year.

At a 10° tilt, the arctic circle and antarctic circles would be a little less than half the distance from the poles as they are today.

What would be the answer for this and how?

Veronika [31]

Answer:

B. 6 cm

Explanation:

First, we calculate the spring constant of a single spring:

$k = \frac{F}{\Delta x}\\$

where,

k = spring constant of single spring = ?

F = Force Applied = 10 N

Δx = extension = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Therefore,

$k = \frac{10\ N}{0.04\ m}\\k = 250\ N/m\\$

Now, the equivalent resistance of two springs connected in parallel, as shown in the diagram, will be:

$k_{eq} = k + k\\k_{eq} = 2k = 2(250\ N/m)\\k_{eq} = 500\ N/m\\$

For a load of 30 N, applying Hooke's Law:

$\Delta x = \frac{F}{k_{eq}}\\\\\Delta x = \frac{30\ N}{500\ N/m}\\\\\Delta x = 0.06\ m = 6\ cm\\$

Hence, the correct option is:

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for

Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

$F_f = \mu_k mg$

where

$\mu_k$ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

$F_f = \mu_s mg$

where $\mu_s$ is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
