Answer:

The unit of force is a derived unit.

Why because it isn't part of the fundamental units which is MLT which stands for mass,length and time.....MLT are the units that brings out the derived units that's why it is called derived units because it is derived from fundamental units so Newton/force is not part of the fundamental unit and if we find the dimension of force you will see that it will be L^2T^-2.....which means it is derived from fundamental unit which makes it a derived unit....Thank you for the question

Answer: Newton, the unit of force, is defined based on Newton's Second Law (F=ma), as the force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter/second2. Thus, it is derived from these other units.

If a cart goes around a turn at 20 km/h ,what remains constant

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 4.speed

Explanation:

In this case, we know that the cart remains at a constant 20km/h.

Now, one could say that "the velocity remains constant, because it always is 20km/h"

But remember that velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, and if the cart is going around a turn, then the direction of motion is changing, which tell us that there is acceleration.

But the module of the velocity, the speed, remains constant at 20km/h.

Then the correct option is 4, speed.

marin [14]

Mary walks:
d 1 = 80 m, d 2 = 125 m, d 3 = 45 m
t = 10 minutes = 600 seconds;
Average speed:
v = ( d 1 + d 2 + d 3 ) / t
v = ( 80 m + 125 m + 45 m ) / 600 s
v = 250 m / 600 s
v = 0.4167 m/s ≈ 0.42 m/s
Answer:
E ) 0.42 meters/second

Two cubes, one silver and one iron, have the same mass and temperature. A quantity Q of heat is removed from each cube. Which on

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

C) specific heat capacity

Explanation:

As we know that heat given to the system to change the temperature is given as

$Q = ms \Delta T$

here we know that

Q = thermal energy given to the system

s = specific heat capacity of the system

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

so here we know that

$\Delta T = \frac{Q}{ms}$

here we know that heat given to the two cubes is of same amount as well as the mass is same but the final temperature is different because of the specific heat capacity (s)

So correct answer would be

C) specific heat capacity
