Answer:

D. Newton's first law is sometimes called the relative inertia law.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest will stay at rest and that in motion will stay in motion with same speed and in the same direction unless an unbalanced force acts on it. It is also called the law inertia. Mass and inertia play a role in this law because mass is a quantity that mainly depends on inertia in that a body with more inertial will exhibit more mass.

Which dog has the most kinetic energy

Blababa [14]

The formula to find the kinetic energy is:

Ek= 1/2 × m × v^2

1. Ek= 1/2×15×3^2
= 67.5 J

2.Ek= 1/2×8×4^2
=64 J

3.Ek= 1/2×12×5^2
= 150 J

4.Ek= 1/2×10×6^2
= 180 J

So the fourth dog has the most kinetic energy.

Please Help On These 2 Questions!!!!! I severely need help!!!!!!

lys-0071 [83]

3. In a uniform electric field, the equation for the magnitude of the magnetic field is E=(V/d). V= voltage d= distance. If the magnetic field magnitude is constant , as stated in your problem, then the voltage must stay the same otherwise the value of "E" would change". And the problem already told us the "E" is uniform and so, not changing. Does that make sense?

4a. If the magnetic field lines are equally spaced apart, in other words share the same density. Then we know that the magnitude of the magnetic field is unchanging. This is because the density of of the magnetic field lines(how many are in a certain area) is related to the magnitude being expressed by the electric field. Greater magnitude is expressed by the presence of more lines (higher line density)

4b. The electric potential is measured in Volts(V) and is uniform along the same equipotential line. What is an equipotential line(gray)? It is a line drawn perpendicular(forms a right angle with) to the magnetic field lines(black) to show the changes in electric potential. One space where electric potential will always be the same because it will always be equal to 0 Volts is exactly in between a positive and negative charges of equal charge value I have pointed to this line with a purple arrow in my picture.

I really hope this makes sense to you and that my pictures help! :)

To determine the height of a flagpole, Abby throws a ball straight up and times it. She sees that the ball goes by the top of th

Kryger [21]

Answer:

$H = 10.05 m$

Explanation:

If the stone will reach the top position of flag pole at t = 0.5 s and t = 4.1 s

so here the total time of the motion above the top point of pole is given as

$\Delta t = 4.1 - 0.5 = 3.6 s$

now we have

$\Delta t = \frac{2v}{g}$

$3.6 = \frac{2v}{9.8}$

$v = 17.64 m/s$

so this is the speed at the top of flag pole

now we have

$v_f - v_i = at$

$17.64 - v_i = (-9.8)(0.5)$

$v_i = 22.5 m/s$

now the height of flag pole is given as

$H = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}t$

$H = \frac{22.5 + 17.64}{2} (0.5)$

$H = 10.05 m$

A neutron star is moving in outer space at 4,000 km/hr. What happened to the star that set it in motion on it's current course?

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

a balanced force acted on it and propelled it to 4,000 km/hr

Explanation:

For the neutrons star which is moving in outer space at 4,000 km/hr, it could only be possible as a result of the balanced force which had already acted on it. <em>This is based on newton's law of motion which states that 'To every action, there is equal and opposite reaction'. </em>

What is the purpose of an man made ecosystem

alexandr402 [8]

Usually to preserve the organisms (maybe the organisms are endangered species or need to be protected in some other way). Another reason could be for the benefit of mankind (for example, an artificial river provides recreational purposes)
