Newton’s first law is commonly stated as:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion.
However, this is missing an important element related to forces. We could expand it by stating:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
By the time Newton came along, the prevailing theory of motion—formulated by Aristotle—was nearly two thousand years old. It stated that if an object is moving, some sort of force is required to keep it moving. Unless that moving thing is being pushed or pulled, it will simply slow down or stop. Right?
This, of course, is not true. In the absence of any forces, no force is required to keep an object moving. An object (such as a ball) tossed in the earth’s atmosphere slows down because of air resistance (a force). An object’s velocity will only remain constant in the absence of any forces or if the forces that act on it cancel each other out, i.e. the net force adds up to zero. This is often referred to as equilibrium. The falling ball will reach a terminal velocity (that stays constant) once the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.

Answer:
Solids
Explanation:
Solids, liquids, and gases all have mass.
I think the first question is talking about the ionic compound Sodium sulfide and it’s formula is Na2S.
And for the second question, i’m pretty sure it’d be a positive charge
Answer:
2m/s²
Explanation:
velocity = displacement (distance in a specified direction /time
Answer:
2.5 s, 5 m
Explanation:
The equations for the horizontal and vertical position of Lukalu are:
we can find the time it takes her to reach the ground by requiring that the vertical position becomes zero:
y(t) = 0
So we find:
The horizontal distance of Lukalu instead will be given by the equation for the horizontal position, substituting t = 2.5 s:
