Answer:

4.08 kg

Explanation:

We can apply the Newton's second law of motion to find the mass of this object:

$F=ma$ ,

where $m$ is mass, and $a$ is acceleration, which is substituted by $g$ here. Now, plugging given numbers in the equation, we have

$40=m\cdot9.8$ .

Solving for mass, we have

$m=\frac{40}{9.8}\\=4.08 \;\text{kg}.$

Why is cancer so horrible

____ [38]

Answer:

Because it kills people. I have had 6 relatives who have died from it in the past 2 years. It's horrible.

Explanation:

If you're wondering what causes cancer, it is rapid and uncontrollable cell regeneration. The majority of cancers result from random mutations arising during DNA replication in the normal stem cells required during development and tissue maintenance.

When the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them?

Llana [10]

If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.

In fact, the magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by:
$F= k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
$r'= \frac{r}{2}$
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
$F'=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r'^2}=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{( \frac{r}{2})^2 }=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{ \frac{r^2}{4} } =4k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}=4 F$
so, the force increases by a factor 4.

Two different liquids are poured into a jar until it is half full. The jar is then sealed shut and shaken. The liquids undergo a

Lilit [14]

Answer:

A closed system.

Explanation:

The three major types of system are: open, closed and isolated. Open system interacts with its surroundings with respect to its particles and energy. A closed system interacts with its surroundings with respect to energy but not its particles. While an isolated system does not interact with its surroundings in any way.

Therefore, after the jar is sealed, it is an example of a closed system. This is because the emitted gas could not escape into the surroundings, but thermal energy was emitted into its surroundings after the chemical reaction has taken place.
