Which of the following statements does NOT use the term angular size or angular distance correctly?

Physics
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Statement 1 is incorrect.

Reason:

Unit of measure of angular distance is not meters.

Explanation:

The term 'angular size' is used to describe the apparent size of the objects in the night sky.

The angular distance is defined as the angle through which an object moves on a circular path. The SI unit is radian.

Other units are revolution (rev) and degrees.

In statement 1, angular distance is measured in meters which is incorrect. In other options, there is no factual mistake so they are correct.

Let's discuss them,

Statement 2:

Here, we are talking about the use of outstretched hand to estimate the angular distances and sizes which is correct.

Statement 3:

This statement talks about the same angular sizes of the sun and the moon, here the term is again used correctly.

Statement 4:

Here, the angular distance is measured in the correct units i.e, degrees so this statement is also correct.

What is the relationship between the speed of an object and its kinetic energy?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

For the purposes of your question, we can think of speed and velocity as being the same thing. Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.

What is the net force acting on a 50-kg object that accelerates at a rate of +3.5 m/s/s?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 175 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 50 × 3.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>175 N</h3>

What is work - energy theorem ??​
Elden [556K]

The work-energy theorem explains the idea that the net work - the total work done by all the forces combined - done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object. After the net force is removed (no more work is being done) the object's total energy is altered as a result of the work that was done.

This idea is expressed in the following equation:

is the total work done

is the change in kinetic energy

is the final kinetic energy

is the initial kinetic energy

How do subatomic particles create net charge on objects?
Andru [333]

Answer:

If an object has more protons than electron then the net charge on the object is positive but if it has more electrons than protons the net charge on the object is negative.  The object is electrically neutral if the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.

Explanation:

Atom is composed of different subatomic particles . The 3 major subatomic particles are proton , neutron and electrons. The proton and the neutron is concentrated in the nucleus of an atom. The  nucleus forms the dense core of an atom. The protons are positively charged while the electrons are negatively charged .The neutrons are neutrally charged.  The electrons forms a cloud around the nucleus of an atom.

The net charge is defined as sum of the charges on an object.  The 2 electric charges available are positive or negative charges. The proton are positive while the electron are negative. Although the mass of the proton is greater than the electron but the magnitude of their charges are equal . If an object has more protons than electron then the net charge on the object is positive but if it has more electrons than protons the net charge on the object is negative.  The object is electrically neutral if the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
