Constancy of speed of light.

All observers measure the same speed of light,
no matter how any observer is moving.

The question is kind of awkward, though.  It seems to say that
people were having a hard time accepting this postulate of relativity,
until Michelson and Morley came along and did their experiment, and
their results gave Relativity a boost.

Actually, Michelson and Morley did their famous experiment in 1887.
At the time, Einstein was only 8 years old, and Relativity was not even
a twinkle in his eye yet.

When force is applied to a breaker bar the torque can be calculated by multiplying the length of the lever by the?
Nimfa-mama [501]

When a force applied to a breaker bar the torque can be calculated by multiplying the<u> length of the lever</u> by the tangential component of force on the lever.

<h3>What is torque?</h3>

Torque is the <u>rotating equivalent</u> of force in physics and mechanics. Depending on the subject of study, it is also known as the moment, moment of force, rotating force, or turning effect. It illustrates how a force can cause a change in the body's rotational motion.

Torque is given by the formula :

                          α = r x F ( bold letters represent vector quantities)

The S.I. unit for torque is :  N - m ( Newton - meter)

<h3>How do we define 1 N-m of torque?</h3>

The newton-metre is a torque unit (also known as a moment) in the SI system. The torque produced by a one newton force applied <u>perpendicularly to the end of a one metre long</u> moment arm is known as a newton-metre.

When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

Earth exerts a 100 N gravitational force on a metal box. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force the metal box exerts o
jeka94

We have that the magnitude of the gravitational force  is mathematically given as

f=6.377N

<h3>Force</h3>

Question Parameters:

Earth exerts a 100 N gravitational force on a metal box.

(Mass of the earth is 6e24 kg and radius of the earth is 6.4e6m.)

Generally the equation for the Gravitational mForce  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\Therefore\\\\F=\frac{100/9.8* 6e116e24}{6.4e6^2}

f=6.377N
