Suppose that a passenger intent on lunch during his first ride in a hot-air balloon accidently drops an apple over the side duri

ng the balloon’s liftoff. At the moment of the apple’s release, the balloon is accelerating upward with a magnitude of 4.0 m/s2 and has an upward velocity of magnitude 2 m/s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the apple just after it is released?

The magnitude of <span>the acceleration of the apple just after it is released would be 9.8 m/sec^2. The reason being that gravity would be the only force acting on the apple and the acceleration of the balloon would be totally unimportant. I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your help.</span>

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Kg

Explanation:

Given that the definition of intensity is:

The intensity of the beam is defined as the energy delivered per unit area per unit time. That is,

I =( E × t)/A

Which can expressed as

I = J/m^2/s

The S.I Units of

Energy is Joule = kgm^2s^-1

Area A = m^2

Time t = s

Intensity I = kgm^2s^-1 × m^-2 × s

Intensity I = kg

The cubic metres and seconds are cancelled out

Therefore, the S.I units of intensity is kg

Imagine a box sitting on a shelf. What forces are acting on the box?
romanna [79]

In case of an object sitting at rest on another base, there are two equal and opposite forces – Normal force and the gravity.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

When an object is placed at rest position on another object, there is a force exerted by the surfaces of the two contact objects. This force is denoted as Normal Force.

When an object such as a box is placed on a shelf, its surface exerts a contact force on the base of the shelf- The Normal force directed upward. Meanwhile, the gravity stays at its action and tries to pull the box towards itself.  

Both of these forces however are equal and opposite and therefore, there is zero net force on the box. That's why it remains at rest, holding on Newton's third law.

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance between the objects doubles?
Ymorist [56]

if the distance between the objects is doubled the force is reduced by a factor of 4

<h3>Whats is gravitational force?</h3>

Gravitational force is the force of attraction between objects in the universe.

f = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

f = gravitational force

G = gravitational constant

m1 = mass of object 1

m2 = mass of object 2

r = distance between the objects

From the formular, the gravitational force and the distance is an inverse relationship so increasing the distance by a factor results to reduction of the force by the square of the factor. hence doubling the distance which is distance mutiplied by 2 will lead to reduction of the force by 2^2 = 4

Therefore: The force decreases by a factor of 4.

hope it helps
