Answer:

A. Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion.

Explanation:

Forces on an object defines how it moves. Forces affect the motion of an object. Forces might slow the speed of an object or make it move faster. It might change the direction of motion of the object. But not always.

Balanced Forces:

When multiple forces are acting on an object but their sum is equal to zero or they cancel out each other.

Net Force = 0

Unbalanced Forces:

When multiple forces are acting upon an object and they are not balanced, they will cause a change in the motion of the object.

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This law reinforces our statement that "balanced forces do not cause a change in motion."

Do gravity always cause a change in motion?

Consider an object in air or rolling down a steep surface. Also consider a book placed on a table.

Gravity is acting upon the objects in both cases. The difference is that there is a normal force on the book placed on the table which is balancing the gravitational force. Thus the forces are balanced and there is no change in motion. However, no forces are there to balance the gravitational force acting upon a falling object and thus it gains acceleration.

a basketball is tossed upwards with a speed of 5.0 m/s What is the maximum height reached by the basketball from its release poi
den301095 [7]

Answer:

1.275 m

Explanation:

Let the maximum height reached be h.

Here initial velocity, u = 5 m/s

Final velocity, V = 0

Use third equation of motion

V^2 = u^2 + 2 g h

0 = 25 - 2 × 9.8 × h

h = 25/19.6 = 1.275 m

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.
grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution.  By definition is defined as:

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}

Where,

\lambda= Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

\theta= Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

r = l\theta

Relacing \theta

r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})

r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}

Replacing with our values we have that,

r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})

r = 3680.91m

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

d = 2r

d = 2 * (3690.91)

d = 7361.8285m

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m
