Which situation is contrary to Newton’s first law of motion? An object at rest begins to move when an external force is applied.

A moving object has a constant velocity under the influence of balanced forces. An object at rest stays at rest as long as unbalanced forces act on it. A moving object slows down when an external force is applied.

Newton's first law establishes the following:

An object will remain at rest or with uniform rectilinear motion unless an external force acts on it.

Therefore, we have that a case contrary to Newton's first law is:

Unbalanced forces acting on an object at rest, cause the object to remain at rest.

It is false, because if the forces are unbalanced, then the object will not remain at rest because external forces act on the object.

Answer:

A situation that is contrary to Newton's first law of motion is:

An object at rest stays at rest as long as unbalanced forces act on it.

He pictures show a grassy field that has been abandoned. Which best explains why this is an example of increasing entropy?
solmaris [256]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is option D. Which is "Over time, the lawn has naturally become disorderly".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work.
  • It is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.
  • According to above definitions of entropy option D is correct.
  • <u>So entropy of system is randomness/disorder that is increasing with time in case of lawn.</u>

A wave traveling in the positive x-direction with a frequency of 50.0 Hz is shown in the figure below. Find the following values
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or \lambda=20.0cm

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{1}{T} were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

50.0=\frac{1}{T} so

T=\frac{1}{50.0} and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

50.0=\frac{v}{20.0} and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!
