Which of the following statements is not one of Newton's laws of motion?

Physics

Alex17521 [72]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer to your question: d.

Explanation:

a. The rate of change of momentum of an object is equal to the net force applied to the object.  

This is the second a law of motion, so this answer is incorrect.

b. In the absence of a net force acting on it, an object moves with constant velocity.

This is the first Newton law of motion, so this option is not correct.

c. For any force, there always is an equal and opposite reaction force.

This is the third law of motion, so this is not the right option.

d. What goes up must come down.

Newton said this sentence, but is not part of the law of motion.

How do sea surface temperatures affect evaporation rate?
kotegsom [21]
<span>Answer: The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>

The work function for tungsten metal is 4.52eV a. What is the cutoff (threshold) wavelength for tungsten? b. What is the maximum
Tanya [424]

Answer: a) 274.34 nm; b) 1.74 eV c) 1.74 V

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to consider the energy balance for the photoelectric effect on tungsten:

h*ν = Ek+W ; where h is the Planck constant, ek the kinetic energy of electrons and W the work funcion of the metal catode.

In order to calculate the cutoff wavelength we have to consider that Ek=0

in this case  h*ν=W

(h*c)/λ=4.52 eV

λ= (h*c)/4.52 eV

λ= (1240 eV*nm)/(4.52 eV)=274.34 nm

From this h*ν = Ek+W;  we can calculate the kinetic energy for a radiation wavelength of 198 nm

then we have

(h*c)/(λ)-W= Ek

Ek=(1240 eV*nm)/(198 nm)-4.52 eV=1.74 eV

Finally, if we want to stop these electrons we have to applied a stop potental equal to 1.74 V . At this potential the photo-current drop to zero. This potential is lower to the catode, so this  acts to slow down the ejected electrons from the catode.

Why are bells made up of metals instead of wood?
Morgarella [4.7K]
The main reason why bells are made up of metals instead of wood is because metal is much more dense than wood, meaning that it resonates at much stronger frequencies. Wood has far too much air in it to make loud noises when struck.

An airplane is sitting on a runway waiting to take off. The airplane begins to move down the runway and it takes 10 s for the ai
Yuliya22 [10]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

-- You said that the airplane has to speed up from zero ("sitting") to 40 m/s, so the change in speed is 40 m/s.

-- You said that it has to roll for 10 seconds to build up enough speed to take off, so the time for the change is 10 s .

Acceleration = (40 m/s) / (10 s)

Acceleration = (40/10) (m/s)/s

<em>Acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

That seems like no problem.  It's only like about 41% of 1 G .  That would not even spill the drinks in First Class, or wake up the passengers who are already asleep (like me).
