When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is <em>zero</em> (it's not accelerating), and the weight of the object is equal to <em>the force of air resistance against the object</em>. (choice-D)
The statement “When
an object is in orbit, it is falling at the same rate at which the Earth is
curving” is true. The speed of a satellite orbiting the earth depends only on
the mass of the earth and the mass of the satellite.
This is true. The break handles and brakes are levers and the seat adjustment (raise or lower) is a screw.
Answer:
20 meters.
Explanation:
In the graph, the x-axis (the horizontal axis) represents the time, while the y-axis (the vertical axis) represents the distance.
If we want to find the distance covered in the first T seconds, you need to find the value T in the horizontal axis.
Once you find it, we draw a vertical line, in the point where this vertical line touches the graph, we now draw a horizontal line. This horizontal line will intersect the y-axis in a given value. That value is the total distance travelled by the time T.
In this case, we want to find the total distance that David ran in the first 4 seconds.
Then we need to find the value 4 seconds in the horizontal axis. Now we perform the above steps, and we will find that the correspondent y-value is 20.
This means that in the first 4 seconds, David ran a distance of 20 meters.
Answer:
The fall in temperature of the liquid is 8.6 +/- 0.1 ⁰C
Explanation:
Given;
initial temperature of the liquid, t₁ = 76.3 +/- 0.4⁰C
final temperature of the liquid, t₂ = 67.7 +/- 0.3⁰C
The change in temperature of the liquid is calculated as;
Δt = t₂ - t₁
Δt = (67.7 - 76.3) +/- (0.3 - 0.4)
Δt = (-8.6) +/- (-0.1)
Δt = 8.6 +/- 0.1 ⁰C
Therefore, the fall in temperature of the liquid is 8.6 +/- 0.1 ⁰C
