If your weight is force created by gravity on your body, and therefore is the Earth pulling you down, what is the reaction force

?
Physics
1 answer:
IRISSAK [1]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The reaction force is the force exerted by your body on the earth pulling upwards.

Explanation:

This can be explained using Newton's third law of motion which states that if object A exerts  a force on object B, object B exerts a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction on object A. One characteristics of these force are that they act o 2 different bodies. In this example, the earth exerts a force on you. The Newton's reaction force would be you exerting a force of equal magnitude on the earth.

Why are metals good conductors of both heat and electricity?
serious [3.7K]
They are both good conductors if both heat and electricity due to the sea of delocalized electrons that is floating around without getting bonded to an atom.

Such electrons can flow around freely to conduct heat and electricity.

Tech A says motor action occurs through the interaction of the magnetic fields of the field coils and the armature, which causes
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Both A and B

Explanation:

The interaction of magnetic fields and armature results into a rotational force of the armature hence turning motion. It's important to note that you will always need two magnetic fields in order to experience the force since one magnetic field is at the rotating armature and another at the casing. Considering the arguments of these two technicians, both of them are correct in their arguments.

A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 475 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed
oksian1 [2.3K]

Explanation:

a. The velocity of the wind as a vector in component form will be represented as v vector:

    v=30j

b.The velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form will be represented as u vector

    u=475i

c. The true velocity of the jet as a vector will be represented as w:

  w=u+v

  w=475i+30j

d.  The true speed of the jet will be calculated as:

    IwI=\sqrt{(475)^2+(30)^2}

    IwI=\sqrt{225625+900}

    IwI=\sqrt{226525}

    IwI=476 mi/h

e. The direction of the jet will be:

tita=tan^{-1}\frac{30}{475}

tita=tan^{-1}(0.0632)

tita=3.62degrees,or,N86.38degreesS

You walk with a velocity of 2 m/s north. You see a man approaching you, and from your frame of
solong [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the man from the frame of  reference of a stationary observer is, V₂ = 5 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

Your velocity, V₁ = 2 m/

The velocity of the person, V₂ =?

The velocity of the person relative to you, V₂₁ = 3 m/s

According to the relative velocity of two

                                V₂₁ = V₂ -V₁

∴                               V₂ =  V₂₁ + V₁

On substitution

                                 V₂ = 3 + 2

                                      = 5 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the man from the frame of reference of a stationary observe is, V₂ = 5 m/s
