Balanced forces do not affect the motion of the object. Unbalanced forces affect the motion and velocity of an object.

A net force is the sum of all forces acting on an object. A net force is capable of accelerating a mass. For instance, if the wheels of a car push it forward with 5 Newtons and drag is 3 Newtons, the net force is 2 Newtons, forward. Motion to the right is positive. Motion to the left is negative.

Answer:

An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. While the net force may not be in the same direction which the object is moving, it is always in the direction that the object is accelerating.

The wavelength of light that has a frequency of 1.20 × 1013 s-1 is ________ m.

klio [65]

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is
$c=f \lambda$
where
f is the frequency
$\lambda$ is the wavelength
$c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light.

For the light in our problem, the frequency is $f=1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}$ , so its wavelength is (re-arranging the previous formula)
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}}= 2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}m$

A 7.36 g sample of copper is contaminated with a additional 0.51 g sample of zinc. Suppose an atomic mass measurement was perfor

yawa3891 [41]

The molar mass of the sample is equal to the summation of the molar mass of the elementas multiplied by the abundance of the elements by mole. In this case, copper has an abundance of 93.69 percent while zinc has 6.31 percent. In this case, the average molecular weight is 63.67 g/mol
