A box is being pushed from the left with a force of 5 N. No force is being applied from the right.

Physics

Answer:

The box will move to the right with increasing speed

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law:

F=ma (1)

where

F is the net force on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

For the box in this problem, there is only one force acting on it: a force of 5 N from the left (so, to the right). This means that according to (1) the box will experience an acceleration: the direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of the net force (so, to the right), therefore the box will move to the right and its speed will continue increasing due to fact that it is being accelerated.

Imagine a box sitting on a shelf. What forces are acting on the box?
romanna [79]

In case of an object sitting at rest on another base, there are two equal and opposite forces – Normal force and the gravity.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

When an object is placed at rest position on another object, there is a force exerted by the surfaces of the two contact objects. This force is denoted as Normal Force.

When an object such as a box is placed on a shelf, its surface exerts a contact force on the base of the shelf- The Normal force directed upward. Meanwhile, the gravity stays at its action and tries to pull the box towards itself.  

Both of these forces however are equal and opposite and therefore, there is zero net force on the box. That's why it remains at rest, holding on Newton's third law.

Reactive elements such as alkali metals and halogens are found in nature only as
bonufazy [111]

Compounds

Explanation:

Reactive elements such as alkali metals and halogens are found in nature only as compounds. Such elements are too unstable to remain as stable atoms, therefore they readily combine and form compounds.

  • Compounds are formed when two atoms combines together to share electrons.
  • They either lose, gain, or share electrons between themselves.
  • In the end, they end up becoming more stable.
  • This is the reason why atoms combine.
  • Unstable elements are very reactive especially alkali metals and halogens.
  • On their own, they are unstable and prefers to bond with other atoms in order to gain a measure of stability.
  • This is why they are found in combined state in nature.
