Car A travels from New York to Miami at a speed of 25 m/s. Car B travels from New York to Chicago, also at a speed of 25 m/s. Ar

e the velocities of the cars equal? Explain.

Answer:

Not Equal.

Explanation:

As the direction from New York to Miami (due South) is different from the direction from New York to Chicago (due West), the 2 velocities are not equal despite having the same magnitude. If both cars are to travel to the same destination at same speed, their velocities would be equal.

The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is
Molodets [167]

Answer:

50 lb

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'

g'=\frac{g}{6}

We know that weight of an object on Earth is,

w = m\times g

m = \frac{w}{g}

Similarly, weight on Moon will be

w' = m\times g'

w' = \frac{w}{g}\times\frac{g}{6}

w' = \frac{300}{6}

w' = 50

Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.

Why is it difficult to walk on muddy road?
Gnesinka [82]
Because of internal friction between layers of mud particles called viscosity. When you walk, your foot exerts a force on the mud; and according to Newton, the mud also (is supposed to) exert an equal opposite force, which leading to an equal net resultant force in your direction, propelling you forward.

You calculate the density of a block of aluminum to be 2.68 g/cm3. You look up the density of a block of aluminum at room temper
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Systematic errors.

Explanation:

The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.

Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.

Look at the circuit below. What is the voltage between points C and D?
stepan [7]

Option c) 1.5 V

Explanation:

<em>As the circuit is build in series first we will find the current passing through the complete circuit. Current stays the same in each element is the series cirucuit, however, the voltage is different.</em>

Voltage is given by the following formula:

V = IR

<em>Because we have to find current through whole circuit, we will first find resistance of the whole circuit.</em>

Equivalent Resistance R(eq): R1 + R2 = 60 + 60 = 120 ohm

Current passing through whole circuit be:

I = \frac{V}{R(eq)}\\I = \frac{3}{120} = 0.025


Now we will find out the voltage between C and D:

Current stays the same in series circuit: I = 0.025 c

Resistance between C and D is, R = 60 ohm

Voltage becomes, V = IR = 0.025 * 60 = 1.5 V

True or false the potential energy of a freely object increases as it begins to fall
Eva8 [605]
False, as an object falls its potential energy turns into kinetic energy thus decreasing the potential energy.
