A man stands on a scale and holds a heavy object in his hands. What happens to the scale reading if the man quickly lifts the ob

ject upward and then stops lifting it?
Physics

Novosadov [1.4K]4 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

When he accelerates the heavy object up , the reading increases because an extra downward normal force acts on it, then scale reading returns to the same reading as when standing stationary, and then decreases as although he is lifting the heavy object , the acceleration is decreasing ,so the extra upward normal force acts.

Communities of organisms coexist in organized, balanced _____?
poizon [28]

Answer: C- ecosystem

An ecosystem is a biological community in which living beings interacts with their non-living environment. An ecosystem consists of abiotic ( non-living factors like water, sunlight, wind and soil) and biotic factors such as plants and animals. Ecosystem allows not only the interaction of abiotic and biotic factors but it favors the interaction between the living species. For example animals are dependent upon plants so as to derive their food. The coexistence of organisms favors the diversity of land forms on earth.

Communities of organisms coexist in organized, balanced ecosystems.

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
nydimaria [60]

Answer : The final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Solution :

(1) The equation used is,

\Delta U=q+w\\\\U_{final}-U_{initial}=q+w

where,

U_{final} = final internal energy

U_{initial} = initial internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

(2) The known variables are, q, w and U_{initial}

initial internal energy = U_{initial} = 2000 J

heat energy = q = 1000 J

work done = w = 500 J

(3) Now plug the numbers into the equation, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

(4) By solving the terms, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

U_{final}-(2000J)=1500J

U_{final}=2000J+1500J

U_{final}=3500J

(5) Therefore, the final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

A skydiver falls toward the ground at a constant velocity. Which statement best applies Newton’s laws of motion to explain the s
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The answer is (a.) An upward force balances the downward force gravity on the skydiver

The skydiver is falling at a constant velocity because the upward force is balancing the downward force of gravity. According to Newton, the opposite force balance each other. This is stated in Newton's second law of motion.

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

0.000003782 m

0.000001891 m

0.000001197125 m

Explanation:

\lambda = Wavelength = 248 nm

D = Diameter of beam = 1 cm

f = Focal length = 0.625 cm

The angle is given by

\theta=\dfrac{1.22\lambda}{D}

The width is given by

d=2\theta f\\\Rightarrow d=2\dfrac{1.22\lambda f}{D}\\\Rightarrow d=2\dfrac{1.22\times 248\times 10^{-9}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{1\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow d=0.000003782\ m

The required width is 0.000003782 m

Minimum resolvable line separation is given by

\dfrac{0.000003782}{2}=0.000001891\ m

The minimum resolvable line separation between adjacent lines is 0.000001891 m

when \lambda=157\ nm

d=2\dfrac{1.22\times 157\times 10^{-9}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{1\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow d=0.00000239425\ m

The new minimum resolvable line separation between adjacent lines is

\dfrac{0.00000239425}{2}=0.000001197125\ m

Nuclear energy is more harmful to the environment than a coal-fired power plant because it produces more mercury, air pollution,
krok68 [10]
A nuclear power plant doesn't produce any of those things. It only produces electricity and heat. As long as there are no accidents, and the worn out nuclear fuel is handled properly, the nuclear plant isn't harmful to the environment at all.
