A negative slope on the velocity versus time graph indicates that an object is not accelerating true or false ?

Physics
1 answer:
dangina [55]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation :

We know that the slope of velocity -time graph gives the acceleration. Acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity i.e.

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

Suppose a driver suddenly applies brakes. In this case the initial velocity of his or her vehicle is more and the final velocity is less.

So, the acceleration is negative in this case i.e. the object is decelerating.

A negative slope on the velocity versus time graph indicates that an object is not accelerating. This statement is false as the object is decelerating.

Answer:

Explanation:

3. Newton’s third law explains how every action has an equal but opposite reaction, meaning that forces comes in pairs. While the locomotive’s wheels are pushing back against the ground as the action force, the ground is producing a reaction force towards the locomotive, propelling it forward. Another pair of forces that act on the locomotive is gravity and normal force. While gravity is pulling the locomotive towards the ground, the normal force the ground exerts on the locomotive is why the locomotive doesn’t fall through the ground.

4. The force of Earth’s gravity on the Sun is weaker than the force of the Sun’s gravity on Earth. The Sun’s attraction  affects the motion of Earth more than the Earth’s attraction affects the Sun’s motion because according to  Newton’s second law, force has mass as one of its factors. The Sun has a significantly higher mass than Earth,  meaning that its force of gravity would also be significantly higher. Newton’s third law is why the Earth doesn’t get  marginally closer to the Sun, stating that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. As the Sun is pulling  Earth towards itself, Earth is pulling away from the Sun.

Which sequence shows all the spectral colors of visible light arranged in an increasing order of their frequency? A. red, yellow
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer is B. red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet

Explanation:

Most textbooks have the acronym ROYGBV to express the order in which colors appear on the spectrum of light, indigo is included in your list, and that's not a problem, although it's not typical. This spectrum of light is the same order in which colors appear in rainbows.

What is potential difference​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

VOLTAGE

Explanation:

Potential difference is the difference in the amount of energy that charge carriers have between two points in a circuit. ... A potential difference of one Volt is equal to one Joule of energy being used by one Coulomb of charge when it flows between two points in a circuit
