D. an outside or unbalanced force acts upon the object.
Answer:
B. Acceleration in the direction of motion speeds you up
Explanation:
Acceleration is defined as when something gains speed. For example, when a car speeds up. Deceleration is when the car slows down, and looses speed. When defining these terms, think of a car going faster, then slowing down at a red light.
Answer:
a) solar activity -- sudden eruptions of large bubbles of plasma and magnetic energy
and
d) solar flare -- sudden release of magnetic energy
Explanation:
We can start by eliminating the options that are definitely wrong.
A coronal mass ejection is not a relatively cool spot on surface of the sun, in fact such a spot is a sunspot, while a coronal mass ejection occurs when the magnetic field of the sun emerges as a loop. Thus, both options B and E are incorrect, leaving only A, C, and D. Option C makes no sense, as the sun's gravitational field does not 'churn'. Thus, only options A and D are left. A closer look at A and D reveals they are correct; solar flares are in fact sudden releases of magnetic energy, as seen in this quote from UC Berkeley's website; "Solar flares are caused by sudden changes of strong magnetic fields in the Sun's corona.". And solar activity is a blanket term for the effects of eruptions of plasma and magnetic energy from the sun.
Multiply the masses by the respective distances:
(12 kg) (2 m) = 24 J
(25 kg) (1 m) = 25 J
so the heavier bag takes more work to lift, and (b) is the answer.
(d) is technically correct if the sacks are carrying different contents whose masses are not equal, but since we don't know what's inside each sack, assume 12 kg and 25 kg are the masses of each sack *and* their contents.
