Answer: The correct answer is balanced force.

Explanation:

Balanced forces are balanced when the forces are acting equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. The balanced forces will not cause change in the speed of the object.

Unbalanced forces are unbalanced when the forces acting on the object are not equal in magnitude. The combined force is the difference between the forces. It will cause the change in the speed of the body.

Therefore, forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are balanced.

An 3.7 lb hammer head, traveling at 5.8 ft/s strikes a nail and is brought to a stop in 0.00068 s. The acceleration of gravity i

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

31677.2 lb

Explanation:

mass of hammer (m) = 3.7 lb

initial velocity (u) = 5.8 ft/s

final velocity (v) = 0

time (t) = 0.00068 s

acceleration due to gravity (g) 32 ft/s^{2}

force = m x ( a + g )

where

m is the mass = 3.7 lb
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s^{2}
a is the acceleration of the hammer

from v = u + at

a = (v-u)/ t

a = (0-5.8)/0.00068 = -8529.4 ( the negative sign showa the its decelerating)

we can substitute all required values into force= m x (a+g)

force = 3.7 x (8529.4 + 32) = 31677.2 lb

2. a) A disc rotates about its axis at speed 25 revolutions per minute and takes 15 s to stop. Calculate the

ASHA 777 [7]

The statement shows a case of rotational motion, in which the disc decelerates at constant rate.

i) The angular acceleration of the disc ( $\alpha$ ), in revolutions per square second, is found by the following kinematic formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{o}}{t}$ (1)

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ - Initial angular speed, in revolutions per second.
$\omega_{f}$ - Final angular speed, in revolutions per second.
$t$ - Time, in seconds.

If we know that $\omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}$ , $\omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s}$ y $t = 15\,s$ , then the angular acceleration of the disc is:

$\alpha = \frac{0\,\frac{rev}{s}-\frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}}{15\,s}$

$\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}$

The angular acceleration of the disc is $\frac{1}{36}$ radians per square second.

ii) The number of rotations that the disk makes before it stops ( $\Delta \theta$ ), in revolutions, is determined by the following formula:

$\Delta \theta = \frac{\omega_{f}^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot \alpha}$ (2)

If we know that $\omega_{o} = \frac{5}{12}\,\frac{rev}{s}$ , $\omega_{f} = 0\,\frac{rev}{s}$ y $\alpha = -\frac{1}{36}\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}$ , then the number of rotations done by the disc is:

$\Delta \theta = 3.125\,rev$

The disc makes 3.125 revolutions before it stops.

Identify the person who made the correct statement.

dmitriy555 [2]

The answer is: [C]: Neither Juan nor Christina are correct.
_________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________
Consider Juan's statement:
_______________________
"Juan said fossils deposits always contain only one type of organism."
__________________________
This statement is incorrect. There are many instances of fossil deposits containing more than one type of organism.
___________________________________
Consider Christina's statement.
___________________________________
"Christina said fossil deposits never contain one type of organism."
___________________________________________
This statement is incorrect. Fossil deposits, by definition (of "fossil") ALWAYS contain at least one type of organism.
___________________________________________
As such, neither Juan nor Christina are correct.
And as such, Answer choice: [C] is the correct answer.
_____________________
Answer choices A, B, and D are ruled out.
