D)While whirling overhead, the velocity changes. Moving in a straight line, the velocity does not change.

While the ball is <span>whirling overhead it is moving in a circle. It has circular velocity. More often used term is angular velocity. This comes from the fact that ball travels some angle during some time.

When it is let go ball travels in a straight line. It has linear velocity. Word "linear" means "straight".</span>

what is the force if a block of wood with mass 20 kg slides along a frictionless surface at 2 m/s squared
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

40 N

Explanation:

F=ma where F is the applied force, m is the mass of object and a is the acceleration.

Since there is no friction, substituting 20 Kg for m and 2 m/s squared for a then we obtain

F=20*2=40 N

The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (A). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches the
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

T = 0.017s

Explanation:

period is the time it takes a particle to make one oscillation

An electric current is periodic in nature

The current reaches 3.8A  ten times.  

So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17s.   let 'T'  be the period:

T=\frac{t}{n}

t is the total time interval

n is the number of oscillations

T=\frac{0.17}{10}

10T = 0.17

T = 0.17/10 = 0.017s

A steel bar of rectangular cross section (1.5 in. 2 3 .0 in.) carries a tensile load P (see fig- ure). The allowable stresses in
lukranit [14]

Explanation:

Value of the cross-sectional area is as follows.

        A = 1.5 \times 2.30

           = 3.45 in^{2}

The given data is as follows.

          Allowable stress = 14,500 psi

          Shear stress = 7100 psi

Now, we will calculate maximum load from allowable stress as follows.

           P_{max} = \sigma_{a}A

                       = 14500 \times 3.45

                       = 50025 lb

Now, maximum load from shear stress is as follows.

           P_{max} = 2 \times \tau_{a} \times A

                      = 2 \times 7100 \times 3.45

                      = 48990 lb

Hence, P_{max} will be calculated as follows.

       P_{max} = min((P_{max})_{\sigma}, (P_{max})_{\tau})

                  = 48990 lb

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum permissible load P_{max} is 48990 lb.

A train car has a mass of 10,000 kg and is moving at +3.0 m/s. It strikes an identical train car that is at rest. The train cars
VLD [36.1K]
In order to compute the final velocity of the trains, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum which is:
initial momentum = final momentum
m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

The final mass of the trains will be:
10,000 + 10,000 = 20,000 kg
Substituting the values into the equation:

10,000 * 3 = 20,000 * v
v = 1.5 m/s

The final velocity of the trains will be 1.5 m/s

What is science?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

<h2>I don't know the answer but I have explanation </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>Science is further treated in a number of articles. For the history of Western and Eastern science, see science, history of. For the conceptualization of science and its interrelationships with culture, see science, philosophy of. For the basic aspects of the scientific approach, see physical science, principles of; and scientific method.Science can be divided into different branches based on the subject of study. The physical sciences study the inorganic world and comprise the fields of astronomy, physics, chemistry, and the Earth sciences. The biological sciences such as biology and medicine study the organic world of life and its processes. Social sciences like anthropology and economics study the social and cultural aspects of human behaviour.Science, any system of knowledge that is concerned with the physical world and its phenomena and that entails unbiased observations and systematic experimentation. In general, a science involves a pursuit of knowledge covering general truths or the operations of fundamental laws.</h3>
