A book is sitting in a table. Jackie is pushing the book with a force of 9 N. If the force of friction is 4 N to the left, what

Answer:

The net force is 5N

Explanation:

A shown in the diagram,

we let P be the force Jackie applied and

F_r

be the frictional force.

To get the net force, we subtract the frictional force from the applied force.

This implies that,

F_n= P-F_r

F_n= 9 - 4

F_n=5N

Answer:

You can change the momentum of an object by giving the object more force or less force.

Explanation:

Think about a ball. It is going slow, you push it and you give it more momentum.

After the collapse of a nebular cloud, atoms begin gravitating together to form a condensed center. What happens next in the sta
ELEN [110]
Well, first of all, I don't think "After the collapse of a nebular cloud ..."
is the first time that "atoms begin gravitating together".  Seems to me like
that's what was going on all the time, and it's what caused the nebular cloud
to collapse in the first place.

In any case, once the pressure and temperature at the center get high enough,
you get "ignition" of nuclear fusion, and that's when you first have a "star".

Explain how electric currents flow only in closed circuits​
Fed [463]

Answer:

The wires are connected to both terminals of the battery, so they form a closed loop. Most circuits have devices such as light bulbs that convert electrical energy to other forms of energy. ... When the switch is turned on, the circuit is closed and current can flow through it.

Which best describes how the current scientific model of the atom was developed?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

A. The model was the result of hundreds of years of experiments.

Explanation:

Since it is not possible to visualize an atom in isolation, scientists have spent hundreds of years experimenting and creating atomic models, that is, images that serve to explain the constitution, properties and behavior of atoms.

The earliest who imagined the existence of the atoms were the Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus in about 450 BCE. According to them, everything would be formed by tiny indivisible particles. Hence the origin of the name "atom", which comes from the Greek a (no) and tome (parts).

But in the nineteenth century, some scientists began to conduct experimental tests increasingly accurate thanks to technological advances. Not only was it discovered that everything was actually made up of tiny particles, but it was also possible to understand more and more about the atomic structure.

Scientists used the information discovered by other scholars to develop the atomic model. In this way, the discoveries of one scientist were replaced by those of others. The concepts that were correct remained, but those that proved to be non-real were now abandoned. Thus, new atomic models were created. This series of discoveries of the atomic structure until arriving at the accepted models today was known like the evolution of the atomic model.

A child, hunting for his favorite wooden horse, is running on the ground around the edge of a stationary merry-go-round. The ang
olga55 [171]

Answer:

9.22 s

Explanation:

One-quarter of a turn away is 1/4 of 2π, or π/2 which is approximately 1.57 rad

Let t (seconds) be the time it takes for the child to catch up with the horse. We would have the following equation of motion for the child and the horse:

For the child: s_c = \omega_ct = 0.233t

For the horse: s_h = s_0 + a_ht^2/2 = 1.57 + 0.0136t^2/2 = 1.57 + 0.0068t^2

For the child to catch up with the horse, they must cover the same angular distance within the same time t:

s_c = s_h

0.233t = 1.57 + 0.0068t^2

0.0068t^2 - 0.233t + 1.57 = 0

t= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

t= \frac{0.233\pm \sqrt{(-0.233)^2 - 4*(0.0068)*(1.57)}}{2*(0.0068)}

t= \frac{0.233\pm0.11}{0.0136}

t = 25.05 or t = 9.22

Since we are looking for the shortest time we will pick t = 9.22 s
