Answer:

The correct options are A and B

Explanation:

SI system (meaning international system of units) seeks to distinctively distinguish one value of a quantity from another value of the same quantity.

For example, 25°C is not the same as 25K when measuring temperature but can however be related to each other via some means (using formula).

From this same example, it can be deduced that, despite the difference in the units, it is easy to change 25°C to kelvin (25 + 273 = 298K) or change 25K to degree celcius (25 - 273 = -248 °C). It also allows scientists from any part of world to compare results obtained from experiments since the units are universal and can be interpreted the same way.

A 10-foot ladder is leaning straight up against a wall when a person begins pulling the base of the ladder away from the wall at

docker41 [41]

Answer:

$y = 4.36$

Explanation:

Let the height of the ladder be L

$L = 10$

Also:

Let $x = distance\ from\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

Let $y = height\ of\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

When the ladder leans against the wall, it forms a triangle and the length of the ladder forms the hypotenuse.

So, we have:

$L^2 = x^2 + y^2$ --- Pythagoras Theorem

When the base is 9ft from the wall, this means that:

$x = 9$

Substitute 9 for x and 10 for L in $L^2 = x^2 + y^2$

$10^2 = 9^2 + y^2$

$100 = 81 + y^2$

Make $y^2$ the subject

$y^2 = 100 - 81$

$y^2 = 19$

Make y the subject

$y = \sqrt{19$

$y = 4.36$

Hence, the true distance at that point is approximately 4.36ft

Does a neutrally charged object even have a charge?

Roman55 [17]

“Charged objects have an imbalance of charge - either more negative electrons than positive protons or vice versa. And neutral objects have a balance of charge - equal numbers of protons and electrons. The principle stated earlier for atoms can be applied to objects. Objects with more electrons than protons are charged negatively; objects with fewer electrons than protons are charged positively.

In this discussion of electrically charged versus electrically neutral objects, the neutron has been neglected. Neutrons, being electrically neutral play no role in this unit. Their presence (or absence) will have no direct bearing upon whether an object is charged or uncharged. Their role in the atom is merely to provide stability to the nucleus.”

Hope this helps a bit.

An example of kinetic energy is a _____.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

An example of kinetic energy is a car coming to a stop

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that a body or system possesses due to its movement. In physics this energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a certain mass and in rest position, until reaching a certain speed. This energy obtained will remain unchanged as long as this body does not vary its speed. That is, kinetic energy measures how many changes an object that is moving can cause.

An example of kinetic energy is a car coming to a stop. If the car is moving and comes to a stop, there is a change in speed, therefore in movement, eventually producing a change in kinetic energy. This energy depends on the mass of the body, in this case the car, and the speed. As the speed decreases, the kinetic energy will decrease.

Define the fundamental difference between kinematics and dynamics. .

Tcecarenko [31]

In kynematics you describe the motion of particles using vectors and their change in time. You define a position vector r for a particle, and then define velocity v and acceleration a as

$v=\frac{dr}{dt} \\$

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}$

In dynamics Newton's laws predict the acceleration for a given force. Knowing the acceleration, and the kynematical relations defines above, you can solve for the position as a function of time: r(t)
