What happens when two forces act in the same direction?

Physics
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago
3 0

When two forces act in the same direction, they add together. ... Equal forces acting in opposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the net force is zero.

What will happen when two neutral objects are rubbed together?
Neko [114]

Answer:

I hope this will help you

Explanation:

When two neutral objects come into contact--especially in a dry environment--electrons can be knocked loose from one object and picked up by the other. The object that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, while the object that loses electrons becomes positively charged. Objects with like charges repel each other, while those with opposite charges attract each other. This phenomenon--in which objects acquire an electric charge and exert a force on one another--is what we call static electricity.

lightning strikes in the distance and six seconds later Thunder is heard how far away was the lightning strike
marshall27 [118]
The speed of sound really depends on the temperature and moisture in the air,
and the sound of the thunder doesn't necessarily travel straight from the lightning
to where you are.  So we can't say exactly. 

But if we use the nominal speed of 340 m/s, then 6 seconds means 2,040 meters,
or about 6,700 feet, or about 1.27 miles.

For each of the situations described below, the object considered is undergoing some changes. Among the possible changes you sho
velikii [3]

Answer: a. (Q), (T), (E)

              b. (Q), (T), (E), (W)

Explanation: <u>Thermal</u> <u>Energy</u> and Temperature are closely related: when the temperature rises causing atoms or molecules to move, thermal energy is produced. Thermal energy is the energy within the system.

<u>Mechanical</u> <u>Work</u> is the amount of energy transferred due to an applied force.

<u>Chemical</u> <u>Energy</u> is the energy contained in the bonds of chemical structures of the molecules released when a chemical reaction happens.

Given the explanations, let's analyse the situations:

a. For an ice cube to be melting, it has to be absorbing heat, which means its thermal energy is changing and, consequently, so does its temperature;

b. First, the gas inside the cylinder reaches a thermal equilibrium, which means its thermal energy and temperature changed. Since there were  exchange of heat to reach the equilibrium, the gas absorbed or gave off heat. After the equilibrium, when the piston starts to be moved, the energy of the pressure is transferred to the gas, so mechanical work had been done.
