Answer:
Earth would continue moving by uniform motion, with constant velocity, in a straight line
Explanation:
The question can be answered by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which states that:
"an object keeps its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external net force different from zero"
This means that if there are no forces acting on an object, the object stays at rest (if it was not moving previously) or it continues moving with same velocity (if it was already moving) in a straight line.
In this problem, the Earth is initially moving around the Sun, with a certain tangential velocity v. When the Sun disappears, the force of gravity that was keeping the Earth in circular motion disappears too: therefore, there are no more forces acting on the Earth, and so by the 1st law of Newton, the Earth will continue moving with same velocity v in a straight line.
Answer:
Work done by the frictional force is
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the car, m = 1000 kg
Initial velocity of car, u = 26.1 m/s
Finally, it comes to rest, v = 0
We have to find the work done by the frictional forces. Work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy as per work - energy theorem i.e.
W = −340605 J
or
Hence, the correct option is (a).
Answer:
The objects morion will remain the same
Explanation:
Answer:
bicycle A has a greater K.E.
Explanation:
K.E = 1/2mv²
bicycle A = 1/2 × 40 × 4² = 320J
bicycle B = 1/2 × 20 × 2² = 100J
bicycle A has a greater K.E. because it has bigger mass and moves with faster velocity
