What is a real life situation that demonstrates 1st Newton law for an object in move?

Physics

qwelly [4]3 years ago

Put your math or physics textbook on the table, and just leave it there. Notice how it doesn’t move. Newton’s first law states simply that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion *when acted on by an outside force*. To see this in action, apply a force (a push) to the textbook and notice how (unsurprisingly) it starts moving! When you stop pushing, the textbook stops, too. This seems to violate Newton’s first law, but it’s actually because there’s another force at play pushing back: friction.

In the case of the textbook, the force you applied with the push was necessary to overcome the force of friction to get it moving, but if you were to give a textbook that same push in space, it would just drift on in a straight line at the same speed for as long as it took for something else to push on or pull at it.

The escape speed from the moon is much smaller than from earth. True or False
Lisa [10]

Answer:

True

The escape speed from the Moon is much smaller than from Earth.

Explanation:

The escape speed is defined as:

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{r}}  (1)

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass and r is the radius.

The mass of the Earth is 5.972x10^{24}kg and its radius is 6371000m

Then, replacing those values in equation 1 it is gotten.

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(6.67x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(5.972x10^{24}kg)}{(6371000m)}}  

v_{e} = 11.18m/s

For the case of the Moon:

v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(6.67x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(7.347x10^{22}Kg)}{(1737000m)}}  

v_{e} = 2.38m/s

Hence, the escape speed from the Moon is much smaller than from Earth.

Since it has a smaller mass and smaller radius compared to that from the Earth.

Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space? Explain.
Damm [24]
Ith air resistance acting on an object that has been dropped, the object will eventually reach a terminal velocity, which is around 53 m/s (195 km/h or 122 mph) for a human skydiver. ... (On the Moon, the gravitational acceleration is much less than on Earth, approximately 1.6 m/s2.)

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm
Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

  • Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.
  • Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.
  • Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.
