When balanced forces act on an object, what type of motion can the object have?
Lesechka [4]

Answer: A. It can only be motionless.

Explanation: When balanced forces act on an object, the object will not move. The only way that object can move is if the forces become unbalanced. Suppose there is a shoe on a table. You are pulling back on the shoe with a force of 3 newtons. But the friction from the shoe rubbing on the table is also 3 newtons of force. But the gravity pulling down on the shoe is also 3 newtons. Nothing will move. The only way the shoe can move is if you pulled with a little more force. The shoe would then move because the force you are pulling with is greater than the other forces acting on the shoe.

Ex 2: You are playing tug of war. Team a is pulling with 20 Newtons of force. Team b is also pulling with 20 newtons of force. The rope does not move. Team a starts to pull a little harder. Now they are pulling with 25 Newtons of force. Now the rope starts moving their way.

Can objects in a system have momentum while the momentum of the system is zero? explain your answer.
alexgriva [62]
Yes.  Momentum is a vector, so several non-zero momenta can add up to zero.  Consider for a simple example a mass of 10kg moving to the right at 5m/s, and another mass of 10kg moving to the left at 5m/s.  These momenta each have a magnitude equal to 50 kg m/s but have opposite sign and so the total system's momentum is zero.

he amplitude of a lightly damped harmonic oscillator decreases by 3.0% during each cycle.show answer no attempt what percentage
GrogVix [38]

The percentage of mechanical energy of the oscillator lost in each cycle is 5.91 %.

The formula for mechanical energy in an oscillator is given by

E = 1/2 kA²

It is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.

Amplitude is nothing but the maximum displacement moved by a point on vibrating body.

It is given that the amplitude A decreases by 3%, then

(E₂ - E₁) / E₁ = [1/2 k (A₂²- A₁²)] /(1/2 k A₁²) = (A₂²- A₁²)/ A₁² = (97² - 100²)/ 100²

⇒ 5.91% of the mechanical energy is lost in each cycle.

How can you increase the torque you are putting on a lever, without exerting any more force?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Torgue = f * distance    basically ...so if you want to increase torque with same  f   then the distance ( lever arm)  must be increased
