The upward force exerted on an object falling through air is _____.

Physics
1 answer:
stira [4]3 years ago
6 0

(C) Air Resistance

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object falls through air, air resistance acts on it in upward direction. When air resistance acts, acceleration during a fall will be less than g because air resistance affects the motion of the falling objects by slowing it down. Air resistance depends on two important factors - the speed of the object and its surface area. Increasing the surface area of an object decreases its speed.

Which of the following are true statements? A. Like charges repel B. Unlike charges repel C. Unlike charges attract or D. Charge
Brums [2.3K]

Answer: The correct answers are (A) and (C).

Explanation:

The expression from electrostatic force is as follows;

F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{1}}{r^{2} }

Here, F is the electrostatic force, k is constant, r is the distance between the charges and q_{1},q_{1} are the charges.

The electrostatic force follows inverse square law. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges. It is directly proportional to the product of the charges.

Like charges repel each other. There is a force of electrostatic repulsion between the like charges. Unlike charges attract each other. There is a force of electrostatic attraction between unlike charges.

The charges are induced on the neutral object when it is placed nearby the charged object without actually touching it.

Therefore, the true statements from the given options are as follows;

Like charges repel.

Unlike charges attract.

Do you have to keep citing the same source
emmasim [6.3K]
I don't think so as long as you make it apparent that the information comes the same source. So citing over and over again is unnecessary as long as it's clear that the information is from the same website or source. If you can't make it clear that they are from the same website source, it would a safe choice to continue to cite to avoid allegations of plagiarism.

A spring with a spring constant of 120 J/m2 is fixed to a wall, free to oscillate. On the other end, a ball with a mass of 1500
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A. 4.47 m/s

Explanation:

As the ball oscillates, it mechanical energy, aka the total kinetic and elastics energy stays the same. For the ball to be at maximum speed, its elastic energy i 0 and vice versa. When the ball is at rest, its kinetic energy is 0 and its elastic energy is at maximum at 50 cm, or 0.5 m

1500 g = 1.5 kg

E_e = E_k

kx^2/2 = mv^2/2

120*0.5^2/2 = 1.5*v^2/2

15 = 0.75v^2

v^2 = 15 / 0.75 = 20

v = \sqrt{20} = 4.47 m/s

The density of sodium is 968 g/cm3. Suppose you need 250 gm of sodium for an experiment. Which volume of sodium do you need?
Masja [62]
The formula for the density of a substance expressed in mass and volume is rho = mass/volume or p = m/v. Rearranging the formula to isolate volume gives the formula v = m/p. To solve for the problem given, this formula must be used. This gives a solution of:

v = m/p = 250 g/ 968 g/cm^3 = 0.258 cm^3 of sodium
