Why is it easier to keep your position steady once the train is moving at a constant speed and direction?

Physics

gayaneshka [121]3 years ago
3 0
Since the train is moving at constant speed and direction, the velocity of the train is constant. According to Newton's First Law of Motion, when an object is moving at constant speed in a straight line(aka constant velocity), the resultant force experienced by the train is 0N. Since you're on the train, the resultant force experienced by you is 0N, thus, you do not have to exert a force to remain balanced.

I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.

billy bob joe's truck has a mass of 3,800 g and an acceleration of 4.5 m/s^2. what is the force of the truck? (you will have to
maria [59]

Answer:

<h2>17.1 N</h2>

Explanation:

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

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

3800 g = 3.8 kg

We have

force = 3.8 × 4.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>17.1 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

During the spin cycle of your clothes washer, the tub rotates at a steady angular velocity of 33.5 rad/s. Find the angular displ
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: angular displacement in rad = 3038.45 rad

angular displacement in rev = 483.589 rev

Explanation: mathematically

Angular velocity = angular displacement / time taken.

Angular velocity = 33.5 rad/s, time taken = 90.7s

33.5 = angular displacement /90.7

Angular displacement = 33.5 * 90.7 = 3038.45 rad

But 1 rev =2π

Hence 3038.45 rad to rev is

3038.45/2π = 483.599 rev

Which of the following statements about the nuclear strong force is true?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: 2, the nuclear strong force drops to practically nothing at large distances.

Explanation: The protons and neutrons in the nucleus share subatomic particles called pions. This exchange is what keeps the protons and neutrons stuck together in the nucleus. Despite the strong force being the strongest force, it has a very small range. This is because pions have very short lifespans. So, the strong force would have literally no effect at large distances.

Hope that helped! :)
