Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.
Explanation:
- Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s
- Let
be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.
- Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.
- The direction of the swimmer is upstream.
Hence the resultant velocity is given as, 
= S — S 0
= 1.25 — 1
= 0.25 m/s.
Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.
True because friction happens when two things are rubbed against each other and it creates force and sliding something vigorously against something else can create force.
Answer: The correct option is (c.).
Explanation:
Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg
Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right
Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg
Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left
Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity
(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)
Total Momentum =
Hence, the correct option is (c.).
There's no such thing as "an unbalanced force".
If all of the forces acting on an object all add up to zero, then we say that
<span>the group </span>of forces is balanced. When that happens, the group of forces
has the same effect on the object as if there were no forces on it at all.
An example:
Two people with exactly equal strength are having a tug-of-war. They pull
with equal force in opposite directions. Each person is sweating and straining,
grunting and groaning, and exerting tremendous force. But their forces add up
to zero, and the rope goes nowhere. The <u>group</u> of forces on the rope is balanced.
On the other hand, if one of the offensive linemen is pulling on one end of
the rope, and one of the cheerleaders is pulling on the other end, then their
forces don't add up to zero, because even though they're opposite, they're
not equal. The <u>group</u> of forces is <u>unbalanced</u>, and the rope moves.
A group of forces is either balanced or unbalanced. A single force isn't.
Answer:
A sloping surface separating air masses that differ in temperature and moisture content is called a front.
