Force = (mass) x (acceleration)    (Newton's second law of motion)

Divide both sides of the equation by 'acceleration', and you have

Mass = (force) / (acceleration)

Mass = 17 newtons / 3.75 meters per second-sqrd = 4.533 kilograms (rounded)

Choose all that apply. Which of the following questions could you answer by measuring length? 1 How tall are you? 2How far is it
horsena [70]

The correct options are:

1 How tall are you?

2How far is it from your house to your school?

3How wide is your refrigerator?

All these measurements involve to measure a length. Instead, the other two options involve to measure different physical quantities; for instance, the question

A rookie quarterback throws a football with an initial upward velocity component of 17.0 m/s and a horizontal velocity component
vitfil [10]

Answer:

(a) 1.73 s

(b) 14.75 m

(c) 3.36 s

(d) double

(e) 63.32 m

Explanation:

Vertical component of initial velocity, uy = 17 m/s

Horizontal component of initial velocity, ux = 18.3 m/s

(A) At highest point of trajectory, the vertical component of velocity is zero. Let the time taken is t.

Use first equation of motion in vertical direction

vy = uy - gt

0 = 17 - 9.8 t

t = 1.73 seconds

(B) Let the highest point is at height h.

Use III equation of motion in vertical direction

v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh

0 = 17 x 17 - 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 14.75 m

(C) The time taken by the ball to return to original level is T.

Use second equation of motion i vertical direction.

h = ut + 0.5at^2

h = 0 , u = 17 m/s

0 = 17 t - 0.5 x 9.8 t^2

t = 3.46 second

(D) It is the double of time calculated in part A

(E) Horizontal distance = horizontal velocity x total time

d = 18.3 x 3.46 = 63.32 m

Newton’s ______ law of motion states that "an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion, unl
Musya8 [376]

Newton’s <u>first</u> law of motion states that "an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion, unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

It is possible to consider Newton's first law to be the law of inertia. It helped us realise that when a body is at rest, it will remain at rest until an external force is applied to it, or if a body is travelling at a constant speed, it will stay moving until an external force is applied.

Only when net force is applied will a body move from its resting position. An illustration of this law can be seen when a passenger in a car fastens their seat belt. Both stationary and moving objects are covered by this law.

Can someone please give me a testable question for Oxygen. I cant think of one for the life of me.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

You could test effect of oxygen levels on growth of a regular houseplant. You could make the control to be plant grown under regular atmospheric Oxygen level. And for changing variables you could have one plant grow at low oxygen level compared to atmospheric oxygen and another plant to grow at higher levels of oxygen when compared to atmospheric oxygen.
