Answer:

If the net force in the stuffed toy is zero, this means that the forces that the children apply on the toy cancel each other.

This can happen if, for example, two kids pull by one side with a force F and the other two kids pull by the other side with the same force -F (the minus sign is because the direction is the opposite)

Then, the total force is F + (-F) = F - F = 0

Answer:

Net force is Zero.

Explanation:

If all forces that are equal and opposite are exerted on an object the resulting force will be Zero.

PV = nRT, is the a. equation of state of an ideal gas

romanna [79]

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

P = pressure, V = volume, n = # of moles, R = gas constant, T = temperature

Equipartition theorem:

Each degree of freedom that a molecule has adds 0.5kT to its total internal energy where k = Boltzmann's constant and T = temperature

2nd law of thermodynamics:

A set of governing principles that restrict the direction of net heat flow (always hot to cold, heat engines are never 100% efficient, entropy always tends to increase, etc)

Clearly the answer is Choice A

A 50.0-kg wolf is running at 10.0 m/sec. What is the wolfs kinetic energy

Fiesta28 [93]

Kinetic energy = mass time squared speed divided by 2
W=mv^2/2 = 50*10*10/2 = 2500 J

What is the role of Langerhans cells?

boyakko [2]

Langerhans cells exist on the surface of the skin. They help to protect you by keeping dangerous microbes from entering your body. Langerhans cells do this in two very different ways: by protecting your skin from infection and also by stimulating allergic reactions.

A device for training astronauts and jet fighter pilots is designed to rotate the trainee in a horizontal circle of radius 11.0

kvv77 [185]

The velocity of the trainee is 29 m/s or 0.42 rev/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.
