Two forces act in opposite directions on a wood block. What will happen if the forces are unbalanced?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

If two unequal forces act in opposite directions, one larger force must cancel out the smaller force,

leaving the net force to be some number in one direction.

Take for example a game of tug-of-war; there are two  OPPOSITE forces (groups of people) acting on the rope, one force is pulling with a force in the negative direction while the other force is pulling in the positive direction.

If the forces on the rope were unequal, then the stronger force (group) will pull everything in their direction.

The same will happen on two unequal forces of opposite directions acting on a wooden block. Therefore, since the resultant force will have a non-zero magnitude and direction, there will be a change in the block's motion and position.

**100 points** PLEASE ANSWER IN 3 PARAGRAPHS
Deffense [45]

Answer:

In the previous section, we defined circular motion. The simplest case of circular motion is uniform circular motion, where an object travels a circular path at a constant speed. Note that, unlike speed, the linear velocity of an object in circular motion is constantly changing because it is always changing direction. We know from kinematics that acceleration is a change in velocity, either in magnitude or in direction or both. Therefore, an object undergoing uniform circular motion is always accelerating, even though the magnitude of its velocity is constant.

You experience this acceleration yourself every time you ride in a car while it turns a corner. If you hold the steering wheel steady during the turn and move at a constant speed, you are executing uniform circular motion. What you notice is a feeling of sliding (or being flung, depending on the speed) away from the center of the turn. This isn’t an actual force that is acting on you—it only happens because your body wants to continue moving in a straight line (as per Newton’s first law) whereas the car is turning off this straight-line path. Inside the car it appears as if you are forced away from the center of the turn. This fictitious force is known as the centrifugal force. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this effect becomes.

Figure 6.7 shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous tangential velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity; in this case it points roughly toward the center of rotation. (The center of rotation is at the center of the circular path). If we imagine Δs becoming smaller and smaller, then the acceleration would point exactly toward the center of rotation, but this case is hard to draw. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion the centripetal acceleration ac because centripetal means center seeking.

hope it helps! stay safe and tell me if im wrong pls :D

(brainliest if you want, or if its right pls) :)

A watermelon is dropped from the top of a 80m tall building. We want to find the velocity of the watermelon after it falls for 1
White raven [17]

Answer:

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 13.23 m/s

Explanation:

Height Of the watermelon when it is dropped is given as

h = 80 m

time of fall under gravity

t = 1.35 s

now if water melon start from rest then we have

v_i = 0

acceleration due to gravity for watermelon

a = 9.81 m/s^2

now we need to find the final speed of watermelon

v_f = v_i + at

so we will have

v_f = 0 + (9.81)(1.35)

v_f = 13.23 m/s
