Is it possible for an object to be in motion if no net force is acting on it

Physics

Absolutely ! 
We never see it happen.  Whenever we see a moving object, if we
don't see any force acting on it to keep it going, it always stops ! 
That's why it's so hard to understand Newton's laws of motion.

The truth is:  It doesn't take ANY force for an object to keep moving,
in a straight line at the same speed.

What DOES take force is if you want to CHANGE the object's motion ...
speed it up, slow it down, or change the direction it's going.

All of those changes are called "acceleration", and you need force
to make any of them happen.

Which electromagnetic wave has the lowest frequencies (less than 3×109 hertz)?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum includes all different types of waves, which are usually classified depending on their frequency. Ordering them from the highest frequency to the lowest frequency, they are:

- Gamma rays

- X-rays

- Ultraviolet

- Visible light

- Infrared radiation

- Microwaves

- Radio waves

Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with lowest frequency, their frequency is lower than 300 GHz (3\cdot 10^{11} Hz) and therefore they are the electromagnetic waves with lowest energy (in fact, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to its frequency). They are generally used for radio and telecommunications since this type of waves can travel up to long distances.

Semenov [28]

Answer:

D.) Sensory adaptation

Explanation:

Assuming you are talking about the cloth and metal monkey experiment performed in the field of psychology (not physics), the monkey formed an attachment to the cloth mother because it felt closer to it, as it was more appealing to its senses.
