The speed of light Never goes to 0. A is wrong.

The speed of light in refraction does not remain constant. B is incorrect

Light does not repel. That term is reserved for something like magnetism. C is not using the correct vocabulary.

D is the right answer.

A mountain climber packs too much gear and finds it difficult to reach the summit before a storm blows in. How does this scenari
MissTica

As the climber climbs the mountain, he needs to over his or her own weight component along the slope of the mountains.

By Newton's second law: Net force = Mass x acceleration

Hence, greater the mass, greater will be the force required to move up the mountain. Hence, the climber will need to apply higher force to climb up as he or she has packed too much, which resulted in the increase in the mass. Hence, there is a increase in the force which will pull him or her downward.

e-lub [12.9K]
Answer:

The average force that brings the car to rest is 175000N

Explanation:

The mass of the car, m = 1000 kg

Initial speed, u = 14 m/s

Final speed, v = 0 m/s (Since the car comes to a stop)

The time taken, t = 8 x 10^-2 s

The average force is calculated as:

\begin{gathered} F=\frac{m(u-v)}{t} \\ F=\frac{1000(14-0)}{8\times10^{-2}} \\ F=\frac{14000}{0.08} \\ F=175000N \end{gathered}

The average force that brings the car to rest is 175000N

Which of the following is the reason why the magnetic flux through the bracelet is changing?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

a. The magnitude of the magnetic field is changing.

b. The magnetic field is changing direction with respect to the bracelet.

c. The bracelet is moving in the magnetic field.

Explanation:

Magnetic flux is a measure of the total magnetic field that passes through a given area. The value of the flux depends on the magnitude of the magnetic field, the area it crosses and its orientation relative to the magnetic field. Therefore, all three reasons are valid.

Four forces are exerted on a disk of radius R that is free to spin about its center, as shown above. The magnitudes are proporti
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The given magnitude of forces of F₁ = F₄, F₂ = F₃, F₁ = 2·F₂, give the

forces that exert zero net torque on the disk as the options;

(B) F₂

(D) F₄

<h3>How can the net torque on the disk be calculated?</h3>

The given parameters are;

F₁ = F₄

F₂ = F₃

F₁ = 2·F₂

Therefore;

F₄ = 2·F₂

In vector form, we have;

\vec{F_4} = \mathbf{\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} \cdot F_4 \cdot \hat i -  0.5 \cdot F_4 \hat j}

\vec{F_2} = \mathbf{ -F_2 \,  \hat j}

Clockwise moment due to F₄, M₁ = -0.5 \times F_4 \,  \hat j  \times \dfrac{R}{2}

Therefore;

M_1  =- 0.5 \times 2 \times  F_2 \,  \hat j  \times \dfrac{R}{2} =   \mathbf{ -F_2 \,  \hat j  \times \dfrac{R}{2}}

Counterclockwise moment due to F₂ = -F_2 \,  \hat j  \times \dfrac{R}{2}

Given that the clockwise moment due to F₄ = The counterclockwise moment due to F₂, we have;

Two forces that combine to exert zero net torque on the disk are;

F₂, and F₄

Which are the options; (B) F₂, and (D) F₄
