If an object is not accelerating, how many forces act on it?

Physics

poizon [28]3 years ago

Answer:

If there are no forces acting upon the object, then there is no acceleration. If there is no acceleration, then the object will move with a constant velocity.

If an object is not accelerating, then zero net forces act on the object.

<u>Explanation: </u>

As per Newton's second laws of motion, an object exhibiting acceleration is directly proportionate to the net forces act on the objects and inversely proportionate to the object's mass.

But object's mass cannot be zero, so if the acceleration is zero for an object, the total forces act on that object will be zero. And for zero net force to occur, two equal but opposite forces are enough to nullify the net force. Thus if an object does not accelerate, then zero net force acts on the object.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

2.03 x 10²⁴N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of moon = 7.34 x 10²²kg

Mass of the earth  = 5.97 x 10²⁴kg

Distance  = 3.8 x 10⁵km

Unknown:

Gravitational force of attraction  = ?

Solution:

To find the gravitational force of attraction between the masses, we use the expression below;

   F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

1 and 2 represents moon and earth

r is  the distance

  F = \frac{6.67 x 10^{-11}  x 7.34 x 10^{22} x 5.97 x 10^{24}  }{(3.8 x 10^{5})^{2}  }

 F = \frac{2.92 x 10^{35} }{1.44 x 10^{11} }  = 2.03 x 10²⁴N

Firdavs [7]

Answer: A.E.

Explanation: To understand the distinction between mass and weight and to be able to calculate the weight of an object from its mass and Newton's law of gravitation. The concepts of mass and weight are often confused. In fact, in everyday conversations, the word "weight" often replaces "mass," as in "My weight is seventy-five kilograms"

Describe the full water cycle
sergey [27]

The water cycle (hydro-logic cycle), explains the constant motion of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth stays equally constant over time, although the severe portion of the water goes into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.

What kind of scattering (Rayleigh, Mie, or non-selective) would you expect to be most important when radiation of the specified
oee [108]

Answer:

hello your question is not properly arranged attached below is the arranged table and solution

answer : attached table below

Explanation:

Given data:

02 molecules size = 10^-10m

smoke particles size = 0.3 mm

cloud droplets size = 20 mm

Rain droplets size = 3 mm

Attached below is a table showing the kind of scattering that is expected to occur at various wave lengths

Note : For Rayleigh scattering the wave particle is smaller than the wave length while for Non-selective scattering the wave particle is greater than the wavelength.

and  For Mie scattering the wavelength is the same as the wavelength.
