Which example best demonstrates how unbalanced forces change the speed of an object's motion?
exis [7]

I don’t see a picture but unbalanced forces could be two boys pushing with a combined force of 400 Newton’s but the surface of what the box is laying on being 600 meaning since the ground is creating a higher force in the form of friction it will slow the boys down. When forces are unbalanced it means that the object can not be still or moving at a constant speed  when one force is greater by a significant amount the object either slows quickly or accelerates fast depending on which factor is greater.

It's nighttime, and you've dropped your goggles into a 3.2-mm-deep swimming pool. If you hold a laser pointer 1.1 mm above the e
Savatey [412]

Answer: 5.30m

Explanation:

depth of pool = 3.2 m

i = 67.75°

Using snell's law, we have,

n₁ × sin(i) = n₂ × 2 × sin(r)

n₁ = 1, n₂ =1.33, r= 44.09°

Hence,

Distance of Google from edge if pool is:

2.2 + d×tan(r) = 2.2 + (3.2 × tan(44.09°) =5.30m

g If the x-component of a force vector is 5.69 newtons and its y-component is 8.00 newtons, then what is its magnitude?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

F = 9.82 N

Explanation:

given,

Force x-component = 5.69 N

Force y-component = 8 N

magnitude of force = ?

Resultant of force

F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}

F = \sqrt{5.69^2 + 8^2}

F = \sqrt{32.3761 + 64}

F = \sqrt{96.3761}

F = 9.82 N

Hence, the magnitude of force is equal to 9.82 N

Two balls, each with a mass of 0.5 kg, collide on a pool table. Is the law of conservation of momentum satisfied in the collisio
Dmitriy789 [7]

During the collision between two balls on the pool table there is no external force along the line of collision between them

Since there is no external force on it so here we can say

F = 0 = \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

here we have

\Delta P = 0

so we can say

P_i = P_f

since there is no external force so we can say during the collision the momentum of two balls will remain conserved

What is the potential energy of an object 20 m in the air with a<br> mass of 600 kg?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Ep = 117600 J

Explanation:

Data:

  • Mass (m) = 600 kg
  • Height (h) = 20 m
  • Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Potential Energy (Ep) = ?

Use formula:

  • Ep = m * g * h

Replace:

  • Ep = 600 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 20 m

Multiply operations, and units:

  • Ep = 117600 J

What is the potential energy?

The potential energy is <u>117600 Joules.</u>
