Because it is acted upon by balanced forces.
Toy cars use a variety of mechanisms to make them go, but they all store up potential energy. Although the elastic material inside is usually steel and not rubber, the principle is the same. By changing the shape of the material (usually a coil of metal) energy is stored and then released as motion.
It would be 8 so that would be you answer
<u>Analysing the Question:</u>
We know that equilibrium is the state of a body when it has equal and opposite forces being applied on it
In this case, a net downward force of 496N is being applied and a net upward force of (106 + 106 + 142 + x) N
<u>Finding the missing force:</u>
Since we have to achieve equilibrium, the net upward forces have to be equal to the net downward forces
So, (106 + 106 + 142 + x) = 496
354 + x = 496
x = 496 - 354
x = 142 N
Therefore, the missing force is 142 N
Answer:
Explained below.
Explanation:
For a boat or any object to float on water, it's density must be less than that of water.
Now, when the maximum capacity of people to be carried by the boat is exceeded, it's possible that the maximum mass of people will also be exceeded depending on the mass of the people in the boat.
Now, we know that; density = mass/volume.
Thus, the higher the mass of the people, the higher the density and the higher the density, the more likely it is to be above that of water and the more likely it is to sink.
Answer:
Electromagnetic force
Explanation:
There are four fundamental forces in nature:
- Gravity: it is the force that is exerted between any objects with mass. It is the weakest of all forces, so it is only relevant at planetary scales. It is always attractive, and it has an infinite range.
- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between charged objects and between magnets (it is responsible for electric fields and magnetic fields). It is the 2nd strongest force, and it is the force that holds atoms in a molecule together. It can be attractive or repulsive, and it has an infinite range.
- Strong nuclear force: it is the strongest of all forces. It is responsible for holding the nucleons together inside the nucleus, and it is attractive. It has a very limited range (
), so it is relevant only at very small scales
- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for radioactive decays and neutrino interactions. It also has a very short range (
Looking at all these definitions, we see that the term that defines the force that acts between charged particles is the electromagnetic force.
