Answer: 20 newtons

Explanation:

Given that:

Force applied by Samantha = 10 newtons

Force applied by Emily = 10 newtons

Direction of both forces = same

Net force of their efforts = ?

Since net force of forces applied in the same direction is obtained by adding up the seperate forces applied, then

Net force = (10 newtons + 10 newtons)

Net force = 20 newtons

Thus, the net force of their efforts is 20 newtons.

To balance a chemical equation we use______. <br> -coefficients <br> -subscripts
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

  • Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
  • The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
  • <em><u>Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products. </u></em>

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level
Genrish500 [490]
Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.

The label has been scratched off a tuning fork and you need to know its frequency. From its size, you suspect that it is somewhe
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

255 Hz

Explanation:

With 5 beats per second with the 250 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 250 - 5 = 245Hz or 250 + 5 = 255 Hz

With 15 beats per second with the 270 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 270 - 15 = 255Hz or 270 + 15 = 285 Hz (most people would have a hard time discerning 15 beats per second... 5 per second is hard enough)

As 255 is the common frequency, it is the one selected.

In creating an accurate scale model of our solar system, Lana placed Earth 1 foot from the Sun. The actual distance from Earth t
miskamm [114]

Pluto would be placed 39.74 feet far from the Sun.

Astronomers use the gap between Earth and the sun, which is ninety-three million miles, as a new unit of measure called the Astronomical Unit.

Map scale refers to the connection (or ratio) between the space on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground. For example, on a 1:one hundred thousand scale map, 1cm at the map equals 1km on the ground.

The distance between the earth and solar, a = around 150 million km, is defined as one Astronomical Unit (AU). The radius of the solar, the solar is around 700,000 km.

Gravitational forces is ------ force​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Gravitational force is <u>noncontact</u> force

Explanation:

Contact force occurs due to the contact between two different objects. Non-contact force occurs due to either attraction or repulsion between two objects such that there is no contact between these objects. There is no field linked with the contact force. ... Gravitational force is an example of a non-contact force.
