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>

A 1-kg collar (located at point (2,2) from the origin) is pulled along a vertical, frictionless bar with a force of 10 N applied
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the collar, m = 1 kg

applied force on the bar, F = 10 N

The acceleration of the collar can be calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

F is the applied force

m is mass of the object

a is the acceleration

a = F / m

a = 10 / 1

a = 10 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the collar is 10 m/s²

When water freezes, its volume increases by 9.05% (that is, equation). What force per unit area is water capable of exerting on
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1.991 × 10^(8) N/m²

Explanation:

We are told that its volume increases by 9.05%.

Thus; (ΔV/V_o) = 9.05% = 0.0905

To find the force per unit area which is also pressure, we will use bulk modulus formula;

B = Δp(V_o/ΔV)

Making Δp the subject gives;

Δp = B(ΔV/V_o)

Now, B is bulk modulus of water with a value of 2.2 × 10^(9) N/m²

Thus;

Δp = 2.2 × 10^(9)[0.0905]

Δp = 1.991 × 10^(8) N/m²

A fighter jet accelerates from 10 m/s to 75 m/s in 7.0 s. The acceleration of the jet is
liraira [26]
Acceleration = final velocity - inital / time
a = 75-10 / 7
a = 65 / 7
a = 9.29 m/s^2

Select the correct answer.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.
