Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction are ____.

Physics
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
8 0

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.

A 120 volt refrigerator uses 650 watts. Calculate how much work is done by the refrigerator in one hour.
Blababa [14]

1 Watt = 1 joule/second

650 watts = 650 joules/second

(650 J/sec) x (3,600 seconds/1 hour)  =  <em>2,340,000 Joules/hour</em>

what factors limit the accuracy of a potentiometer and what was the objective of reversing the terminals of the cell​
cricket20 [7]

Explanation:

<em>"The accuracy of a potentiometer can be increased by decreasing the potential gradient across the potentiometer wire, and this can be achieved by increasing the length"</em>

<em />

<u>The factors that are affecting/limiting the accuracy of the potentiometer are: </u>

  1. The specific resistance of the material of the potentiometer wire.
  2. The potential gradient
  3. The current passing through the potentiometer wire.
  4. Area of a cross-section of the wire
  5. Internal temperature.

     

<u>The objective of reversing the terminals of the cell​</u>

If the jockey of the potentiometer is pressed for a long time, joule heating sets in, so that reversing the terminals of the potentiometer will prevent the resistance due to joule heat from being added to the measured resistance, ultimately preventing unwanted resistance

A ball is launched from ground level and hits the ground again after an elapsed time of 4 seconds and after traveling a horizont
Mumz [18]

Answer:

a. It is constant the whole time the ball is in free-fall

Explanation:

If we divide the movement on its vertical and horizontal components, and we concentrate on the vertical component, let's call x-component, and analyze Newton's second's law:

\sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}=m\overrightarrow{a_{x}}

with \sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}, a_{x} the acceleration on horizontal direction and m the mass of the ball, because the only force acting on the object is gravity that is always vertical, there're not forces on the horizontal direction that means \sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}=0 and by (1) that implies a_{x}=0 there's not acceleration on horizontal direction.

Because acceleration is the rate at what velocity changes and there's no acceleration, there's no change in velocity, in other words velocity is constant on horizontal direction.

Need help on physics/momentum ​
koban [17]

Answer:

vf=11.67m/s

Explanation:

vf:

Δp=m(vf-vi)

80=12(vf-5)

80=12vf-60

140=12vf

vf=11.67m/s

pf:

p=m*v

p=12*11.67

p=140.04 N*s

Hope this helps
