The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another. The law of inertia on the other hand states that a body remains at a state of rest or motion on a straight line unless compelled by an external force. So i think that the answer is B, which is FALSE because the question is more related to the law of inertia(Newtons first law) than to the law of conservation of energy. Hope i helped.

A carnival merry-go-round rotates about a vertical axis at a constant rate. A man standing on the edge has a constant speed of 3
Advocard [28]

Answer:

r = 5.07 m

Explanation:

given,

velocity of the man , v = 3.43 m/s

centripetal acceleration, a = 2.32 m/s²

magnitude of position of = ?

using centripetal acceleration formula

a_c =\dfrac{v^2}{r}

2.32 =\dfrac{3.43^2}{r}

r =\dfrac{3.43^2}{2.32}

   r = 5.07 m

The magnitude of the position vector relative to rotational axis is equal to 5.07 m.

an object is moving with initial velocity of 5 m/s. After 10 seconds final velocity is 10 m/s. Calculate its acceleration.​
Brut [27]

Answer:

0.5m/s2

Explanation:

acceleration= change in velocity/time taken

= v - u/ t

= 10-5/10

=5/10

= 0.5m/s2

you check the weather and find that the winds are coming from the west at 15 milers per hour. this information describes the win
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

We finds that the winds are coming from the west at 15 miles per hour. This information shows the velocity of the wind. Since, velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. 15 miles per hour shows the speed of wind and west shows the direction of wind motion.

Hence, the given information describes wind velocity.

Answer the following question​
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A) OA, AB, BC

B) 25m/s^2

C) see explanation

D) 25

E) Rest

Explanation:

From the Velocity time graph shown:

The positive slope = OA ; This is positive because, it is the point of uniform acceleration on the graph.

Constant slope = AB, the slope here is constant because, AB on the graph is the point of constant velocity.

-ve slope = BC

B) Acceleration of body in path OA.

Acceleration = change in Velocity / time

Acceleration = (150 - 0) / 6

Acceleration = 150/6 = 25m/s^2

C) Path AB is Parallel to the because it marks the period of constant velocity (that is Velocity does not increase or decrease during the time interval).

D) Length of BC

BC corresponds to the distance moved, that velocity / time

Velocity = 150 ; time = 6

Therefore Distance (BC) = 150/6 = 25

E.) Velocity =0 ; Hence body is at rest

8TH GRADE SCIENCE I NEED NOW DO NOT SKIP
yan [13]

Explanation:

1. Force=mass*acceleration

acceleration=force/mass

=100/50

=2m/s^2

2. Gravitational force for downward acceleration= mg-ma=m(g-a) , since a is less than g,

So it will be= 50(9.8-2)

=50(7.8)= 390N
