What does Newton’s first law of motion state?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Troyanec [42]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This is normally taken as the definition of inertia. ... If that velocity is zero, then the object remains at rest.

Answer:

Before Galileo and Newton, many people thought that objects lost speed because they had a built-in natural tendency to do so. But those people weren't taking into account the multiple forces here on Earth - for example, friction, gravity, and air resistance - that cause objects to change their speed. If we could see the motion of an object in deep interstellar space, we would be able to observe the natural tendencies of an object that is free from any external influence. In deep interstellar space we would observe that if an object had a speed, it would continue to move with that speed until there was some force causing a change in its motion. Likewise, if an object were at rest in interstellar space, it would remain at rest until there was a force causing a change in its motion.

What is the current in 160V current if the resistance is 20
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Current, I = 8 A

Explanation:

We have,

Voltage, V = 160 V

Resistance, R = 20 ohms

It is required to find the current. The relation between current, voltage and resistance is called Ohm's law. It is given as :

V=IR

I = current

I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{160}{20}\\\\I=8\ A

So, the value of current is 8 A.

How can understanding atomic light help astronomers determine what planets are composed of?
GuDViN [60]

The most common method astronomers use to determine the composition of stars, planets, and other objects is spectroscopy. This process utilizes instruments with a grating that spreads out the light from an object by wavelength. This spread-out light is called a spectrum. Every element has a unique fingerprint that allows researchers to determine what it is made of.

The fingerprint often appears as the absorption of light. Every atom has electrons, and these electrons like to stay in their lowest-energy levels. But when photons carrying energy hit an electron, they can push it to higher energy levels. This is absorption, and each element’s electrons absorb light at specific wavelengths related to the difference between energy levels in that atom. But the electrons want to return to their original levels, so they don’t hold onto the energy for long. When they emit the energy, they release photons with exactly the same wavelengths of light that were absorbed in the first place. An electron can release this light in any direction, so most of the light is emitted in directions away from our line of sight. Therefore, a dark line appears in the spectrum at that particular wavelength.  

Because the wavelengths at which absorption lines occur are unique for each element, astronomers can measure the position of the lines to determine which elements are present in a target. The amount of light that is absorbed can also provide information about how much of each element is present.

A 51.9g sample of iron, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.449·J·g?1°C?1, is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) t
Ghella [55]

Answer:

the initial temperature of the iron sample is Ti = 90,36 °C

Explanation:

Assuming the calorimeter has no heat loss to the surroundings:

Q w + Q iron = 0

Also when the T stops changing means an equilibrium has been reached and therefore, in that moment, the temperature of the water is the same that the iron ( final temperature of water= final temperature of iron = T )  

Assuming Q= m*c*( T- Tir)  

mc*cc*(T-Tc)+mir*cir*(T - Tir) = 0

 Tir = 20.3 °C + 300 g * 4.186 J/g°C * (20.3 C - 19 °C) / ( 51.9 g * 0.449 J/g°C )

 Tir = 90.36 °C

Note :

- The specific heat capacity of water is assumed 1 cal/g°C = 4.186 J/g°C  

- We assume no reaction between iron and water

Which of the following statements is true about what happens during a chemical reaction?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: In a chemical reaction, reactants react to form a number of products.

For the formation of products, the bonds of the individual reactants must be broken and the bonds of the products must be formed.

For example: Formation of water from hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. Reaction follows:

2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)

The Bonds of hydrogen and oxygen molecule are broken and new bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms are formed to give water molecule.
