Answer:

The force is Inertia

Explanation:

The force that acts on an object to move it from rest or a constant straight line motion is known as Inertia.

In physics the above statement is governed by Newton's first law of motion which is also known as Law of Inertia.

This law states that, an object that is at rest will remain at rest and an object that is moving will continue to move in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the net force acting on the object is zero.

This implies that, A stationary object will remain motionless if no force acts on it while a object with constant velocity will continue moving with constant velocity until a force acts on it (neglecting resistance from air and friction).

Answer:

Inertia.

Explanation:

Inertia is the property of matter by which it remains at rest or in uniform motion in the same straight line unless acted upon by some external force or the resistance to change in velocity by an external force.

Inertia is the tendency for an object at rest to remain at rest, or for a moving object to remain in motion in a straight line with constant speed.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

$a = 4.76 cm$

Explanation:

As we know by the law of diffraction through circular aperture

$a sin\theta = 1.22 \lambda$

here we know that

a = diameter of the aperture

$\theta$ = diffraction angle

$\lambda$ = wavelength

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22 \lambda}{sin\theta}$

Now in order to find the wavelength we know

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{343}{9100}$

$\lambda = 0.0376 m$

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22(0.0376)}{sin75}$

$a = \frac{0.046}{0.966}$

$a = 0.0476 m= 4.76 cm$

Light is shining perpendicularly on the surface of the earth with an intensity of 680 W/m^2. Assuming that all the photons in th

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

3.066×10^21 photons/(s.m^2)

Explanation:

The power per area is:

Power/A = (# of photons /t /A)×(energy / photon)

E/photons = h×c/(λ)

photons /t /A = (Power/A)×λ /(h×c)

photons /t /A = (P/A)×λ/(hc)

photons /t /A = (680)×(678×10^-9)/(6.63×10^-34)×(3×10^-8)

= 3.066×10^21

Therefore, the number of photons per second per square meter 3.066×10^21 photons/(s.m^2).

A rubber balloon is filled with 1 L of air at 1 atm and 300 K and is then put into a cryogenic refrigerator at 100 K. The rubber

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are

(a) It decreases to 1/3 L

(ii) is (c) It is constant

Explanation:

to solve this, we list out the number of knowns and unknowns so as to determine the correct equation to solve the problem

The given variables are as follows

Initial volume V1 = 1L

V2 = Unknown

Initial Temperature T1 = 300K

let us assume that the balloon is perfectly elastic

At 300K the balloon is filled and it stretches to maintain 1 atmosphere

at 100K the content of the balloon cools reducing the excitement of the gas content which also reduces the pressure, however, the balloon being perfectly elastic, contracts to maintain the 1 atmospheric pressure, hence the answer to (ii) is (c) It is constant,

For (i) since we know that the pressure of the balloon is constant

by Charles Law V1/T1 =V2/T2

or V2 = (V1/T1)×T2 = $\frac{1L}{300K}$ × $100K$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ × L = L/3 hence the correct answer to (i) is 1/3L

An object at rest does not _____ and an object in motion does not _____, unless an _____ force acts upon it

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it

Explanation:

This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of inertia.

It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore

- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it

- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it

This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).
