6 0

Answer:

b. It is dropped

Explanation:

If the initial velocity is zero, the object move from rest. That happens if the object is dropped

Determine the gravitational force of attraction experienced by a two 5.00 kilogram masses separated by a distance of 2.5 meters.
drek231 [11]
The gravitational force between two objects may be calculated through the equation,
                                     F = Gm₁m₂ / d²
where G is 6.67 x 10^-11 m³/s²kg
Substituting the known values to the equation,
                        F = (6.67 x 10^-11 m³/s²kg)(5.0 kg)(5.0 kg) / (2.5 m)²
                                     F = 2.668 x 10^-10 N

Use the impulse-momentum theorem to find how long a stone falling straight down takes to increase its speed from 5.6 m/s to 10.6
Nezavi [6.7K]

As stated, the impulse and momentum definitions will be used to later find the value of time through the force of gravity. According to the theory, the impulse formula is given as,

I = F\Delta t

Here,

F = Force

\Delta t = Change in time

Now using the impulse theorem we have that,

Change in Impulse = Change in momentum

F\Delta t = \Delta p (1)

The change in momentum is given as

\Delta p = p_f -p_i

\Delta p = (-10.6)-(-5.6)

\Delta p = -5m/s

The force due to gravity is through the Newton's second law

F_g = -mg

Here,

m = mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

Substitute the value in (1)

-mgt = -5m/s

9.8t = 4.9

t = \frac{5}{9.8}

t = 0.51s

Therefore it will take 0.51s.

Place the single slit wheel on the optics bench and turn the wheel to the variable slit width Slowly turn the wheel and observe
Advocard [28]

Answer:

With the equation:

sin T = l / a (*)

note that the width of the central diffraction maximum is inversely proportional to the width of the slit. If we increase the width size, a, the angle T at which the intensity first becomes zero decreases, resulting bin a narrower central band.

A 1000-kg car is driving toward the north along a straight horizontal road at a speed of 20.0 m/s. The driver applies the brakes
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

final velocity, v = 0 m/s

distance, s = 120 m

Let a be the acceleration of motion

use third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 as

0 = 20 x 20 + 2 x a x 120

a = - 1.67 m/s²

Let F be the force

Force, F  mass x acceleration

F = - 1000 x 1.67

F = - 1666.67 N

The direction of force is towards south and the magnitude of force is 1666.67 N.

The table lists information about four devices. A 4 column table with 4 rows. The first column is labeled device with entries W,
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

X, Y, Z, W

Explanation:

W has a current of 0 so it has no magnetic field.

X has the most loops (besides W) and the most current so it is the strongest.

Y and Z are the same except Y has more loops so it is stronger than Z.

Also just took the quiz
