Answer:

b.A single force acts on the object.

Explanation:

Newton's first law establishes that an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion will have constant velocity if the result of the forces acting on them is zero

An object acceleration can be defined as the variation of velocity in an interval of time:                            

a = \frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{i}}   (1)  

Where v_{f} is the final velocity, v_{i} is the initial velocity,  t_{f} is the final time and t_{i} is the initial time.

If the velocity is constant there is no variation of velocity, therefore, the acceleration will be 0.

Newton's second law can be used To show that no forces act on the object:

R = ma (2)

Where R is the resultant of all the forces, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Since there is no acceleration for an object with constant velocity, equation (2) can be expressed as:

R = m(0)

R = 0  

So it is correct to say that an object with constant velocity has no forces acting on it.

In the other hand in the case of several forces acting on the object, The net force (R) can be zero if they have the same magnitude and opposite direction

So (a), (c) and (d) are correct because of what was previously discussed.

<u>Note that b cannot be true since it violates Newton's first law, since the object is moving at a constant velocity. </u>

Answer:

Range = 22.61 m

Explanation:

We can use the formula for the Range in flat ground, given by:

Range=v_i^2\frac{sin(2\theta)}{g}

which for our case renders:

Range=15^2\frac{sin(80^o)}{9.8} \approx 22.61\,\,m

Why are peer reviews important?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Peer reviews are important because individuals with similar background knowledge are used to review work to detect inaccuracies or deficiencies in the work.

Explanation:

Those individuals with similar educational and work background knowledge can more accurately review work since they have the required knowledge base for the subject.

I believe this would be an example of Mary's velocity. We have her speed and direction which is all you need to find velocity.
