Answer: Inertia

Explanation: Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion.

A packing crate rests on a horizontal surface. It is acted on by three horizontal forces: 600 N to the left, 200 N to the right,
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The resultant force would (still) be zero.

Explanation:

Before the 600-N force is removed, the crate is not moving (relative to the surface.) Its velocity would be zero. Since its velocity isn't changing, its acceleration would also be zero.

In effect, the 600-N force to the left and 200-N force to the right combines and acts like a 400-N force to the left.

By Newton's Second Law, the resultant force on the crate would be zero. As a result, friction (the only other horizontal force on the crate) should balance that 400-N force. In this case, the friction should act in the opposite direction with a size of 400 N.

When the 600-N force is removed, there would only be two horizontal forces on the crate: the 200-N force to the right, and friction. The maximum friction possible must be at least 200 N such that the resultant force would still be zero. In this case, the static friction coefficient isn't known. As a result, it won't be possible to find the exact value of the maximum friction on the crate.

However, recall that before the 600-N force is removed, the friction on the crate is 400 N. The normal force on the crate (which is in the vertical direction) did not change. As a result, one can hence be assured that the maximum friction would be at least 400 N. That's sufficient for balancing the 200-N force to the right. Hence, the resultant force on the crate would still be zero, and the crate won't move.

A student pushes a 0.2 kg box against a spring causing the spring to compress 0.15 m. When the spring is released, it will launc
german

Answer:

The maximum height the box will reach is 1.72 m

Explanation:

F = k·x

Where

F = Force of the spring

k = The spring constant = 300 N/m

x  = Spring compression or stretch = 0.15 m

Therefore the force, F of the spring = 300 N/m×0.15 m = 45 N

Mass of box = 0.2 kg

Work, W, done by the spring = \frac{1}{2} kx^2 and the kinetic energy gained by the box is given by KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Since work done by the spring = kinetic energy gained by the box we have

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2} kx^2  therefore we have v = \sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m} } = x\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } = 0.15\sqrt{\frac{300}{0.2} } = 5.81 m/s

Therefore the maximum height is given by

v² = 2·g·h or h = \frac{v^2}{2g} = \frac{5.81^{2} }{2*9.81} = 1.72 m

Answer: option B: conduction.

Conduction is the heat transfer that happens between two bodies in direct contact, due to the collision of the molecules, atoms and electrons within the body (microscopical level).
