How does newton's first law of motion relate to galileo's concept of inertia?

1 answer:

7 0

This is because Newton refined Galileo's idea of inertia and created it as his first law of motion. Galileo stated that it was the propensity of things to resist changes in motion. Newton refined it by including: "Every thing continues in a condition of rest or uniform speed in a straight line except acted on by a nonzero net power".

Scuba divers are warned that if they must make a rapid ascent, they should exhale on the way up. If a diver rapidly ascends to t

Whitepunk [10]

Air for a diver comes out of a high pressure tank at - Same- pressure compared to the water around the diver (metered by the regulator).

This means the lungs are inflated with - Highly pressurized- gas.

This does not adversely affect the diver when deep underwater, because the entire environment around the diver is at -Same - pressure.

If the diver suddenly surface, the air in the alveoli in the lungs will still be at - a higher - pressure compared to the air around the diver, which will be at - a lower - pressure.

The gas in the diver's lungs will - expand - and can damage the alveoli.

your friend sit in a sked in the snow. if you apply a force of 120 N to them, they have an acceleration of 1.3 m/s2. what is the

levacccp [35]

Need to know the equation for force
F=MA
F is force
M is mass- we need to know the mass
A is acceleration
use "x" for mass
120 N= 1.3x
divide 1.3 in both side
kg unit for mass
X=92.31 kg
or
mass = 92.31 kg
