In order for work to take place the energy present must be related to the movement of the object.

This is another one of those muddy misleading questions, followed by
a muddy group of choices from which an answer must be selected.

a).  is absurd.  There's no such thing as a "balanced force", only
a balanced group of forces.

b).  is probably the choice the question is aiming for.

c).  is not so.  The engines of an airplane do plenty of work lifting the plane
off the ground, although the force of the engines is never directed upward.

d).  is really awkward.  The object's motion is almost never the cause of the force.
The force is almost always the cause of the object's motion.

Now for the big 800-lb gorilla in the room:  No moving object needs to be involved
in order for energy to be flowing or work to be getting done.

-- A radio wave radiates through space.  Straighten out a wire coat-hanger and
stick it up in the air where the radio wave can pass by it.  Electrical current flows
through the wire, and you can drain the electrical energy out the bottom of it.  

-- A light bulb is shining.  Some distance away, something it's shining on
gets warm, because of the heat energy that has shot across to it from the
light bulb and soaked into it.

-- A lightning bolt jumps from the ground to a passing cloud.  Or, if you feel
more comfortable with it, a lightning bolt jumps from a cloud to the ground.
It doesn't matter.  Either way, there's enough energy splashing around to
ignite houses, zap TVs and computers, melt concrete, vaporize water, and
light up a city.  Although nothing is moving.

Which scientist described an atom made of a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it?.
swat32

The scientist that described an atom made a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it was: Ernest Rutherford

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford proposed his atomic model in which he considered the atom as a positively, densely charged center called a nucleus in which the electrons circulate around the core with a negative charge.

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is theown downwand with an iniial velocily of 29 us frm op of a building that is
Helen [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock will strike the ground 2.42s earlier than the dropped rock.

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

  • y_{i}=300m
  • y_{f}=0m
  • v_{iD}=0m/s
  • v_{iT}=-29m/s, it is negative as is directed downward

<u>Time of the dropped Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300m-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})t_{D}^{2}}{2}, then clearing for t_{D}.

t_{D}=\sqrt[2]{\frac{300m}{4.9m/s^{2}}} =\sqrt[2]{61.22s^{2}} =7.82s

<u>Time of the Thrown Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300-29t_{T}-\frac{(9.8)t_{T}^{2}}{2}, then, 0=-4.9t_{T}^{2}-29t_{T}+300, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t_{T}=5.4s

Finally, we can find how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground, so t_{E}=t_{D}-t_{T}=7.82s-5.4s=2.42s

Please help me, it's a simple equation
castortr0y [4]

Because the elevator moves at a constant speed, it's in equilibrium and the net force acting on it is zero. Then the tension in the cable exactly equals the magnitude of the elevator's weight, which is

(3000 kg) (9.80 m/s²) = 29,400 N

A student starts a food fight by throwing a 0.5 kg burrito at some girl he likes. He throws it kind-of hard so he accelerates it
Elenna [48]

Explanation:

m = mass of burrito thrown by the student = 0.5 kg

a = acceleration of the burrito thrown by the student = 3 m/s²

F = force applied by the student on the burrito = ?

According to newton's second law , the net force on an object is the product of its mass and acceleration. it is given as

F = ma

inserting the values

F = (0.5) (3)

F = 1.5 N

hence the net force on the burrito comes out to be 1.5 N
