When are you most aware of your motion in a moving vehicle: when it is moving steadily in a straight line or when it is accelera

ting? If you were in a car that moved with absolutely constant velocity (no bumps at all), would you be aware of the motion?
(A) Accelerating. You would not be aware of the motion if you did not look outside the car.

(B) Accelerating. You would be aware of the motion because humans can sense speed.

(C) Moving steadily in a straight line. You would be aware of the motion because you can feel velocity even in a closed car.

(D) Moving steadily in a straight line. You would be aware of the motion because you can feel the speed.

Answer:

Acceleration is percieved, not constant velocity.

Explanation:

You are most aware when the vehicle is accelerating. At constant velocity you would not be aware of the motion. Only if the system is accelerated the dynamics must be solved considering a pseudo-force (of inertial origin) acting.

It's because of this that:

(A) False. The acceleration can be detected from the inside of a closed car.

(B) False. You would be aware of the motion, but not because humans can sense speed but acceleration.

(C) False. Constant velocity cannot be felt in a closed car.

(D) False. Again, you can't feel constant speed.

In the standing waves experiment, the string has a mass of 31.2 g and a length of 0.7 m. The string is connected to a mechanical
mestny [16]

Answer:

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the string = 31.2 g

length of string = 0.7 m

linear density of the string = \dfrac{mass\ of\ string}{length}

linear density of the string = \dfrac{31.2\times 10^{-3}\ kg}{0.7\ m}

linear density of the string = 44.57 × 10⁻³ kg/m

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

By quadrupling the mass of the body hanging on the thread what will become the period of oscillation?​
nikklg [1K]

Well, the tension in the thread will probably quadruple, but the hanging body will continue to just hang there.  

The question gives us no evidence that it is doing any oscillating, and there's no reason for it to start just because it suddenly got heavier.

• A flame always points upwards. Why do you think this is so?
valina [46]

Answer:

A flame always point upwards because the flame's gas is hotter than the surrounding air and, like you said, a hot gas is always lighter or less dense than a cold gas.

In an experiment in space, one proton is held fixed and another proton is released from rest a distance of 1.00 mm away. part a
mihalych1998 [28]
<span>We can use Coulomb's law to find the force F acting on the proton that is released. F = k x Q1 x Q2 / r^2 k = 9 x 10^9 Q1 is the charge on one proton which is 1.6 x 10^{-19} C Q2 is the same charge on the other proton r is the distance between the protons F = (9x10^9) x (1.6 x 10^{-19} C) x (1.6 x 10^{-19} C) / (10^{-3})^2 F = 2.304 x 10^{-22} N We can use the force to find the acceleration. F = ma a = F / m a = (2.304 x 10^{-22} N) / (1.67 x 10^{-27} kg) a = 1.38 x 10^5 m/s^2 The initial acceleration of the proton is 1.38 x 10^5 m/s^2</span>
