the answer is b) work is being done

Explanation:

A force that leads to movement of an object is known as work.

The energy present in an object due to its position in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained by an object due to its motion.

For example, when Jerome is swinging on a rope then there occurs movement in the swing due to which the swing has kinetic energy.

Since, a force has been applied on the swing to make it move. Hence, a work is also done.

Therefore, we can conclude that if Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, work is being done.

) is it possible for one component of a vector to be zero, while the vector itself is not zero?
Natalka [10]
The least number of component of a vector quantity is two. These are the x-component and the y-component. 

The resultant vector, or vector as we refer to it in this item, can be calculated through the equation,
              RV = sqrt ((Vx)² + (Vy)²)

From the equation, it can be noted that if we let Vx equal to zero,
              RV = Vy

Similarly, if we let Vy be equal to zero then,
             RV = Vx

Thus, it is still possible for the vector to become nonzero even if one of its components is zero.

Suppose you give a 10 Newton push to Ryan on skis (he weighs 50 kg), how much will he accelerate?
Talja [164]

Well we can just use F=ma. The force is 10N, the mass is 50 kg, solve for a. Well since we kg and N, no conversion is necessary. So just plugging in the numbers, we get

10N = 50 kg · a

\frac{10N}{50kg}=a

A newton is just \frac{kg·m}{s^{2}}

a=\frac{\frac{10kg·m}{s^{2}}}{50kg}

The s^2 and 50 kg you multiply

a=\frac{10kg·m}{50kg·s^{2}}

The kg's cancel and 10/50 is 1/5

\frac{1}{5}·\frac{m}{s^{2}}

So the acceleration is 1/5 m/s^2

How much force does it take to accelerate a 2000 kg car at 1m/s^2
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

2000 N

Explanation:

F=ma

m=2000 kg

a=1m/s^2

F=(2000 kg)(1m/s^2)

F=2000 N

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?
arlik [135]
Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!


Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.


That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)
