Several forces act on a ball. Which of the following statements must be true? The velocity and acceleration could be in any dire

ction. None of these choices. The velocity and acceleration are in the direction of the resultant force. The velocity is in the direction of the resultant force, but the acceleration could be in any direction. The velocity could be in any direction, but the acceleration is in the direction of the resultant force.

Answer:

The velocity could be in any direction, but the acceleration is in the direction of the resultant force.

Explanation:

The ball (assuming that we can treat it as a point mass) must obey Newton's 2nd Law, that states that the acceleration produced by a force, is proportional to the applied force, being the mass the proportionality constant.

As the force is the vector, and the mass an scalar, the acceleration vector must be in the same direction as the force vector.

Velocity, instead, can be in any direction: When an object is speeding up is in the same direction as the acceleration, while if it is slowing down, it has just the opposite.

What is the force of an object with a mass of 30 kg that is free falling?
disa [49]

Answer:

F = 294.3 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. It is this particular case the acceleration is due to the gravitational acceleration since the body is in free fall.

Therefore we have:

F = m*g

where:

F  = force [N]

m = mass = 30 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]

F = 30*9.81

F = 294.3 [N]

The amount of work done by a heat engine equals the amount of thermal energy _____. added to the engine plus the waste heat adde
RideAnS [48]

added to the engine minus the waste heat

Explanation:

The amount of work done by a heat engine equals the amount of thermal energy added to the engine minus the waste heat.

Thermodynamics is used to measure the energy changes that accompanies physical and chemical process.

 In a system;

  Internal energy = Quantity of heat added - Work done on it

 internal energy is designated as ΔU

  quantity of heat as Q

   work done as W

                ΔU = Q - W

  so       W = Q  -   ΔU

some of the heat added added to the system goes as waste heat as no system is 100% efficient.

   the work done on a system goes in as thermal energy, internal energy and waste heat

What would the speed of this wave be?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

c) 100,000 m/s

Explanation:

You need to take the same wave length from the top graph and bottom one, so let's take half a wave length then in the top one that is 0.005, but in the bottom one it's 2000/4 = 500 because they are smaller and there are 4 half waves before you get to 2000, whereas in the top one there is 1 half wave before you get to 0.005 on the graph.

Now use speed = distance / time

speed = 500 / 0.005 = 100 000 m/s
