State the Newton's first law of motion in words and in mathematical form.

Effectus [21]

Newton's First Law

* Newton's First Law of Motion states that a body will remain at rest or will continue to move at a constant velocity, unless an external force is applied.

* This means that in order for the acceleration of a body to change, there must be a net force applied to the body. Put another way, if the forces on an object balance, there will be no acceleration (the object will continue at the same speed).So, if we are told that a body is not accelerating (i.e. if it is moving at a constant velocity), we know that the resultant (overall) force in any one direction will be zero.

* Its an unbalanced force,

8N acting towards the left, and 20N acting towards the right.

F = F2 - F1

= 20N - 8N

= 12N

F = ma

a = F/m

a = 12N/5kg

a = 2.4 m/s^2

Therefore, the accelaration of the object is 2.4 m/s^2

A 78.5-kg man is standing on a frictionless ice surface when he throws a 2.40-kg book horizontally at a speed of 11.3 m/s. With

kirill [66]

Answer:

The man moves across the ice with a speed of 0.345m/s.

Explanation:

From the conservation of linear momentum, we have that the total linear momentum before the book throw is equal to the total linear momentum just after it. Since the initial velocity of the system is zero (so the initial momentum is zero), we have that:

$m_mv_m+m_bv_b=0\\\\v_m=-\frac{m_b}{m_m} v_b$

Where $m_m$ is the mass of the man, $m_b$ is the mass of the book, and $v_m$ and $v_b$ are their velocities. Plugging in the given values, we can compute the speed of the man (ignoring the negative sign, because we care about the magnitude, not the direction):

$v_m=\frac{2.40kg}{78.5kg}(11.3m/s)=0.345m/s$

In words, the resulting speed of the man is 0.345m/s.

You need to determine the density of a ceramic statue. if you suspend it from a spring scale, the scale reads 32.4 n . if you th

Mandarinka [93]

Well, the density of the water is
${1000 \frac{kg}{ {m}^{3} } }$
so i believe that is what the question is asking for :)

What are the characteristics of a blackbody radiator? Give an example.

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

A blackbody, or Planckian radiator, is a cavity within a heated material from which heat cannot escape. No matter what the material, the walls of the cavity exhibit a characteristic spectral emission, which is a function of its temperature.

Example:

Emission from a blackbody is temperature dependent and at high temperature, a blackbody will emit a spectrum of photon energies that span the visible range, and therefore it will appear white. The Sun is an example of a high-temperature blackbody.
