Hey! I know you've probably already finished the quiz already, but I just wanted to let you know the correct answer should be D. I wish I could tell you why, but I ended up getting that answer through a bit of trial and error myself... Anyway, good luck!
Answer:
3.85 percent
Explanation:
From the question,
Percentage error = (error/actual)×100................ Equation 1
Given: actual center of mass = 15 cm, error = 15.6-15 = 0.6 cm
Substitute these values into equation 1
Percentage error = (0.6/15.6)×100
Percentage error = 3.85 percent
Hence the percentage error of the uniform mass = 3.85 percent
When balanced forces act on an object at rest, the object will not move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.
Answer:
The Acceleration will increase
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law of motion: It states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes places along the direction of the force.
It can be expressed mathematically as,
F ∝ m(v-u)/t
Where (v-u)/t = a
F = kma.
F = force, m = mass of the body, a = acceleration, k = constant of proportionality which tend to unity for a unit force, a unit mass, and a unit acceleration.
Therefore,
F = ma.
From the equation above,
If the net force acting on a body increase, while the mass of the body remains constant, the acceleration will also increase.
