4 km/hr. There are four quarters in an hour, so just divide 16 by 4 and you get 4. It is directly proportional.

(a) When we rub a plastic rod witha piece of fur, --------------transfer from ----------------to the ------------. In the result

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the two dissimilar bodies rubbed together, they the both of the bodies becomes charged. One of the body gets positive charge and the other body gets negative charge.

the positively charged body loses some electrons and the negatively charged body gains some electrons.

According to the properties of charge when the plastic rod is rubbed with the fur, the plastic rod has a tendency to get the negative charge and the fur has a tendency to get positive charge.

So,

When we rub a plastic rod with a piece of fur, electrons--------------transfer from fur----------------to the -------plastic-----. In the result charging fur with -positive-----------charge and plastic rod with-----negative--------charge.

Sally goes on a hike. The distance she walks compared to the amount of time she walks is shown on the graph. Which statement is

Neko [114]

According to the task there should be the graph that supports Sally's hike, but after looking on the options it seems that Sally doesn't walks at a constant rate and there is the negative option that coincides with my thoughts. So, I bet the false statement is the third option represented in the scale above.

A rocket's acceleration is 6.0 m/s2. Assuming it starts at 0 m/s, how long will it take for the rocket to reach a velocity of 42

elena-s [515]

You said "<span>A rocket's acceleration is 6.0 m/s2.".

That just means that its speed increases by 6 m/s every second.
Whenever you look at it, its speed is 6 m/s faster than it was
one second earlier.

If it starts out with zero speed, then its speed is 6 m/s after 1 second,
12 m/s after 2 seconds, 18 m/s after 3 seconds . . . etc.

How long does it take to reach 42 m/s ?

Well, how many times does it have to go 6 m/s FASTER
in order to build up to 42 m/s ?

That's just (42/6) = 7 times.

Writing it correctly, with the units and everything, it looks like this:

(42 m/s) / (6 m/s</span>²)

= (42/6) (m/s) / (m/s²)

= (42/6) (m/s · s²/m)

= 7 seconds

John is carrying a shovelful of snow. The center of mass of the 3.00 kg of snow he is holding is 15.0 cm from the end of the sho

Andru [333]

Answer:

James is correct here as the force of hand pushing upwards is always more than the force of hand pushing down

Explanation:

Here we know that one hand is pushing up at some distance midway while other hand is balancing the weight by applying a force downwards

so here we can say

Upwards force = downwards Force + weight of snow

while if we find the other force which is acting downwards

then for that force we can say that net torque must be balanced

so here we have

$F_{down} L_1 = W_{snow} L_2$

so here we have

$F_{down} = \frac{L_2}{L_1} (W_{snow})$

so here we can say that upward force by which we push up is always more than the downwards force
