When is a body said to be at rest

Physics
1 answer:
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]3 years ago
3 0

rest is the state of a body which is stationary relative to a particular frame of reference or another object.  When the state of a body does not changes with time with respect to its surroundings in a particular frame of reference that time  it is said to be at rest.

in other words we can say that when a body has zero velocity and its position is not changing with time relative to its surrounding then it is said to be at rest.

For example a chair on which you are sitting is at rest or a table on which your desktop is kept is rest because its position is not changing.

B. Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the
goblinko [34]

We have that the instantaneous velocity of the shuttlecock when it hits the ground is

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

From the question we are told

Assuming the acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2, what is the instantaneous velocity of the

shuttlecock when it hits the ground? Show your work below.

Generally the equation for acceleration  is mathematically given as

a=v \frac{dv}{dx}\\\\\Therefore\\\\\2ah=v^2-u^2

Where

acceleration is still -9.81 m/s2,

Hence,

V^2-U^2=2(-9.81)*-H

Therefore

V_{int}=\sqrt{U^2+19.6H}

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.
babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

p\propto \frac{1}{A}

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.

The atomic number of a nucleus decreases during which nuclear reactions?
Goryan [66]
A related type of beta decay actually decreases the atomic number of the nucleus when a proton becomes a neutron. Due to charge conservation, this type of beta decay involves the release of a charged particle called a “positron” that looks and acts like an electron but has a positive charge.

You can increase the vapor pressure of a liquid by:
irga5000 [103]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by vapors or gas on the surface of a liquid.

When we increase the temperature of a liquid substance then there will occur an increase kinetic energy of the molecules. As a result, they will move readily from one place to another.

Hence, liquid state of a substance will change into vapor state of the substance. This means that an increase in temperature will lead to an increase in vapor pressure of the substance.

Thus, we can conclude that you can increase the vapor pressure of a liquid by increasing temperature.

In which of the following situations would convection currents most likely occur?
poizon [28]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is defined as a process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) is heated and the cooler liquid (more dense) settles or sinks at the bottom whereas a hotter material (less dense) will rises to the top.

For example, ice being less dense (cooler material) will float in a lake whereas liquid water being more dense will sink at the bottom.

Thus, we can conclude that situation in which convection currents most likely occur is within the water in a lake as ice forms on the top.
