Physics

"Zero acceleration" means "velocity" that's not changing.

Sadly, it seems that both of these words are almost always
misinterpreted and misunderstood. "Acceleration" does NOT
mean "speeding up", and "velocity" does NOT mean speed.

"Velocity" is the speed AND direction of motion.  So, for example,
'30 miles per hour north' and '30 miles per hour west' are the same
speed but different velocities.

"Acceleration" is ANY change in speed OR direction.  Consider three
different families in three different cars.  One car is speeding up, one is
slowing down, and the third is driving around a curve at a steady speed.
ALL three of the cars are accelerating.

The answer is D 100 newton

Explanation:

2.0m/s2 is d acceleration while the 50kg is the mass. Force = mass x acceleration. So f=50x2.so force is 100 newton

What is the main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere?
konstantin123 [22]
The main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere would be temperature changes in these layers. Temperature is one essential property that varies in the atmosphere. Based from this variation, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers and further to three smaller layers -  troposphere, tropopause, the stratosphere,  stratopause, the mesosphere, mesopause, and the thermosphere.The troposphere is the layer that is nearest to the surface of the Earth. It is the part where humans, plants and animals survive. Also, it is the warmest layer of the atmosphere. And as we go higher the atmosphere, the temperature would drop making it much cooler.
