Answer:

The right answer is inertia.

Explanation:

This name is given to the tendency of an object that is moving to remain that way, or if it is resting remain that way until an external force act upon it. Basically it means an object does what they are doing unless a force changes their speed or direction.

It's the natural tendency of things to keep going unless there's something trying to stop them.

It's usually called "inertia".

Don't get the idea from all of this that things stop unless there's something to keep them going.  The truth is exactly the opposite:  Things keep going unless there's something to make them stop.

What is the internal energy of 4.50 mol of N2 gas at 253°C? To solve this
Finger [1]

The internal energy of the gas is 49,200 J

Explanation:

The internal energy of a diatomic gas, such as N_2, is given by

U=\frac{5}{2}nRT

where

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature of the gas

For the gas in this problem, we have:

n = 4.50 (number of moles)

R = 8.31 J/(mol·K) (gas constant)

T=253^{\circ} + 273 = 526 K (absolute temperature)

Substituting, we find:

U=\frac{5}{2}(4.50)(8.31)(526)=49,200 J

A 1.50-m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.500 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

a) 1.06*10^-5

b) 0.00105 °C^-1

Explanation:

Given that

Length of the cylinder, L = 1.5 m

Radius of the cylinder, r = 0.25 cm

Voltage across the rod, V = 15 V

I• at Temperature T• = 20° C is 18.5 A

I at Temperature T = 90° C is 17.2 A

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.
Lesechka [4]

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it. Because the contact between the bolt and the   pliers working surface is less.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage ?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, it is used to obtained efficiency of the given mechanical machine.

The efficiency to open the stubborn bolt depends upon the contact between the working surface of the pliers and the bolt.

The contact between the bolt and the top pair of pliers working surface is less. Its mechanical advantage is less.

Hence, the top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

To learn more about the mechanical advantage, refer to the link;

What is the acceleration of a 7 kg mass if the force of 70 N is used to move it toward the Earth?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<h2>10 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

m is the mass

f is the force

From the question we have

a =  \frac{70}{7}  = 10 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
