Answer: Stationary reference points are used to determine if a object is in motion because if the reference point is still,you will be able to see if the object is in motion. If you had a reference point that wasn't stationary, you wouldn't be able to tell if the object was in motion.

Explanation:

Stationary reference points are used to determine if a object is in motion because if the reference point is still,you will be able to see if the object is in motion. If you had a reference point that wasn't stationary, you wouldn't be able to tell if the object was in motion.

A 12 kg box is pulled across the floor with a 48 N horizontal force. If the force of friction is 12 N, what is the acceleration
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the box is 3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the box, m = 12 kg

horizontal force pulling the box forward, Fx = 48 N

frictional force acting against the box in opposite direction, Fk = 12 N

The net horizontal force on the box, F = 48 N - 12 N

The net horizontal force on the box, F = 36 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion to determine the acceleration of the box;

F = ma

where;

F is the net horizontal force on the box

a is the acceleration of the box

a = F / m

a = 36 / 12

a = 3 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the box is 3 m/s²

Two rocks weighing 5 Newtons and 10 Newtons are dropped simultaneously from the same height onto a Coyote. After three seconds o
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

<h2>Potential energy lost by 10 N rock will be greater</h2>

Explanation:

Two rocks of 5N and 10N falls from the same height . Thus they will loose the potential energy.

The potential energy lost = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

The potential energy lost by first 5 N rock = 5 h

Because weight of rock m g = 5 N

Similarly , the potential energy lost by 10 N Rock = 10 h

here weight of rock m g = 10 N

Thus comparing these two , the potential energy lost by 10 N rock is greater than that of 5 N rock .

Help? its due in like 12 minutes lolzz
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Question 1: the plates are moving toward one another.

Question 2: The Himalayan Mountains in India

Question 3: Because mountains are formed instead.

Explanation:

The paragraph explains that the plates continue to move closer to one another while forming multiple mountains.

The paragraph explains, " a well-known example of this is the formation of the Himalayan Mountains in India,"

The area of the Himalayan Mountains are better suited for the formation of mountains rather than volcanoes.

Have a nice day!! Good Luck!! Brainliest would be appreciated!!!
