Leya [2.2K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A. 6 m/s

Explanation:

Instantaneous velocity is calculated by finding the velocity at that particular instant....this is done by dividing the distance by the Time taken...

Velocity = distance/time

Velocity = 60/10

Velocity= 6

Velocity = 6m/s

Can we use a clinical thermometer to measure the temperature of a candle flame​
miv72 [106K]

In theory, yes. The 2 problems are the materials used for clinical thermometers, & the temperature capacity of the clinical thermometer. If anything, change the material & extend the measurement threshold. At that point, it wouldn´t be used for clinical garbage anymore.

Which of the following statements describes a battery?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The negative electrode of a battery has an excess of positive charge

Explanation:

This is because in every battery, there is a negative electrode ( cathode ) and only positive charge is deposited on it.

For other statements:

Batteries donot store electric charge but they store chemical energy

Some batteries donot use metals for the flow of electrons, but some use hydrogen gas at a pressure of 1 atmosphere.

Why centre of mass equal to centre of gravity
Maksim231197 [3]
Because mass and distance determine gravity, so the more mass you have, the more gravity.

Provide descriptions and examples of the following forces: friction, gravity and elastic.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Friction:-

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing inter molecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an

EG:-

A coaster sliding against a table.

Gravity:-

The force of gravity is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself. By definition, this is the weight of the object. All objects upon earth experience a force of gravity that is directed "downward" towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found

EG:-

The force that causes a car to coast downhill even when you aren't stepping on the gas.

Elastic:-

Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. When an elastic material is stretched or compressed, it exerts elastic force. This force increases the more the material is stretched or compressed.

EG:-

An archer's stretched bow

A baseball player hits a baseball with a bat. The mass of the ball is 0.25 kg. The ball accelerates at 200 m/s2. What is the for
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

50N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)

0.25kg times 200m/s² = 50N
