How is the motion of an object affected when a force acts on it?

1 answer:

3 0

Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia. When the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can cause an object to accelerate or decelerate. Unbalanced forces can also cause an object to change direction.

Hope that helps!

The answer is the last choice.

Its electrical potential energy stays the same because it has the same electric potential. The reason why is that moving the charge towards X does not change the distance of the negative charge between the plates. The Electrical potential energy of a particle is the result energy by virtue of its position from the electrical fields produce by the plates both positive and negative. Since the charge is still equidistant to each other (assuming based from the diagram) no change in terms of electrical energy consumption or work was done.

What is the mass of an object that requires 100N of force in order to accelerate 10m/s2

iragen [17]

Explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

Force (f) = 100 N

Acceleration (a) = 10m/s^2.

Mass (m)=?

We have;

Force = mass * acceleration.

So,

100 = m * 10

Or, 100 = 10m

Or, m= 100/10

Therefore, mass is 10kg.

Hope it helps....
