a 2kg object is moving horizontally with a speed of 4 m/s.how much net force is required to keep the object moving at this speed

and in this direction?
Physics

Elza [17]3 years ago

If the object is moving in a straight line with constant speed,
that's a description of " acceleration = zero ".

Zero acceleration means zero net force on the object.

NO net force is 'required' to keep an object moving in a straight line
at constant speed.  In fact, if there IS any net force on the object,
then either its speed or its direction MUST change ... there's no way
to avoid it.

None of this depends on the object's mass, or on the speed or direction
of its motion.

Vectors a and b have scalar product â6.00, and their vector product has magnitude +9.00. what is the angle between these two vec
salantis [7]

Answer:

Value of angle between vector a and b is 56.30^{\circ}.

Explanation:

Vectors a and b have scalar product 6.00

Let \theta be the angle between a and b.

\vec{a}.\vec{b} = 6

ab cos \theta = 6 ...(1)

Vectors a and b have magnitude of vector product 9.00

\vec{a} \times\vec{b} = 9

ab sin \theta = 9 ...(2)

Dividing equation (2) by (1) we get

\frac{ab sin \theta}{ab cos \theta}  = \frac{9}{6}

tan \theta = 1.5

\theta = tan ^{-1} (1.5)

\theta = 56.30^{\circ}

Thus, value of angle between vector a and b is 56.30^{\circ}.

Explain two reason why SI is easier than the English System.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

There are several reasons why SI is preferred to the old English system of measurement: ... SI uses base 10, just like our number system, so it is much easier to learn, remember and convert between units. The prefixes used in SI are from Latin and Greek, and they refer to the numbers that the terms represent.

A 1.50-mm-diameter glass sphere has a charge of + 1.60 nC. What speed does an electron need to orbit the sphere 1.60 mm above th
saveliy_v [14]

Answer :

Velocity will be 3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec

Explanation:

We have given glass surface has a diameter of 1.5 mm

And charge q = 1.60 nC

Radius of electrons orbit r = height of electron above surface + radius of sphere  = =1.6+\frac{1.5}{2}=2.35mm = 0.00235m

Force on electron is given by F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}, here q is charge on sphere and e is charge on electron

F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}=\frac{kqe}{r^2}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.00235^2}=4.172\times 10^{-13}N

This force work as centripetal force

So F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

4.172\times 10^{-13}=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2}{0.00235}

v = =0.0328\times 10^{-9}=3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec

What is the inverse square law and how does it relate to gravity?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Inverse Square Law Newton proposed the Inverse Square Law. The effect of gravity (and also on forces such as sunlight) works like this. If say we have a half-mass Earth, it would produce a gravity of not half but a quarter (the square of 2).

Why is it not advisable to touch a canvas tent from inside when it is raining?​
Sauron [17]

Answer: When you touch wet canvas, surface tension will draw water to your finger. However, the drop left behind where you touched, like any irregular point on an overhead surface, will draw condensation from inside the tent if it is humid.
