Heavy objects pick up momentum faster then lighter objects can, so I would say heavy objects. Good luck :)

Heaver objects because they have greater mass

densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

F_f = \mu m g

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

F_{net} = - \mu mg

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = -\mu g

now it is given that

\mu = 0.868

g = 9.81 m/s^2

so here we have

a = -0.868 * 9.81

a = -8.52 m/s^2

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2

A wooden disk of mass m and radius r has a string of negligible mass is wrapped around it. If the disk is allowed to fall and th
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

a = \frac{2}{3}g

T = \frac{mg}{3}

Explanation:

As the disc is unrolling from the thread then at any moment of the time

We have force equation as

mg - T = ma

also by torque equation we can say

TR = I\alpha

TR = \frac{1}{2}mR^2(\frac{a}{R})

T = \frac{1}{2}ma

Now we have

mg - \frac{1}{2}ma = ma

mg = \frac{3}{2}ma

a = \frac{2}{3}g

Also from above equation the tension force in the string is

T = \frac{1}{2}ma

T = \frac{mg}{3}

The length of second hand of clock is 14cm, an ant sits on the top of second hand. find the following
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

i) Since the length of the second clock (radius) is 14 cm = 0.14 m, the distance covered by the second hand in one revelution is:

Distance covered = 2πr = 2π(0.14) = 0.88 m

The time taking to complete one revolution = 60 seconds, hence;

Speed = distance covered in one revolution / time take o complete a revolution

Speed = 0.88 m / 60 s = 0.0147 m/s

ii) Distance covered in 150 s = speed * 150 s = 0.0147 * 150 = 2.2 m

iii) Displacement in 150 seconds = distance from initial position to final position

At 150 s, the hand has covered 2 revolutions and moved 30 s. Hence:

Displacement in 150 seconds = speed * 30 s = 0.0147 * 30 = 0.44 m

8. What is generated by the movement of tiny particles within an object? *
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer: Thermal Energy

Explanation: I know this answer is correct because I had to look in my notebook for the definition

In my own words: Thermal Energy is the energy coming from heat which means it is generated by the movement of tiny particles with different objects.

Hope this helps! :)
