Label these as balanced or unbalanced:
kvasek [131]

Answer:

  1. A book lying on a table  - Balanced force
  2. An airplane cruising in level flight  - Balanced
  3. A rock falling from a cliff  - Unbalanced force
  4. A bridge collapsing in an earthquake  -  Unbalanced force
  5. A man sitting on a park bench  - Balanced force
  6. A space shuttle taking off  - Unbalanced force
  7. A car maintaining a constant speed on a straight road  - Balanced force
  8. An airplane landing - Unbalanced force

Explanation:

Usually, one or more forces act on a body at an instant of time. When these forces acting on a body and bring the body in the equilibrium position, the force is said to be balanced. The unbalanced force changes the equilibrium state of the body.

As in the case of an airplane cruising in a level flight, the weight of the plane will be equal to the lift force and the thrust is equal to the drag. So the plane is experiencing a balanced force.

It is easier to add vectors together if we split them into what? A. Sizes B. Components C. Quadrants D. Lines
jonny [76]

Answer:

<h2> B. Components</h2>

Explanation:

Splitting vectors into components makes it easier to perform operations on them, typically categorizing vectors into horizontal and vertical components which are the two components makes it very easy to perform operations, since they are similar terms and operations cab be done easily

The floor of the Atlantic Ocean is spreading slowly. It spreads at the rate of 1 to 10 centimeters per year. Why would it be use
In-s [12.5K]

C because...

Models represent objects, events, and processes in the real world.

Models are often used when an object, event, or process

occurs too slowly or too quickly;

is too small or too large;

is too complicated or too dangerous.

The ocean is spreading at such a slow rate that it would take scientists 50 or more years to collect enough meaningful data from the ocean floor to complete a study. Therefore, scientists use models in order to both predict how the floor will keep spreading and to understand what the ocean floor looked like thousands of years in the past.

The cooking time for a roast scales like the 2/3rds power of the mass. Based on scaling laws, how much longer does a 20-lb roast
fgiga [73]

Answer:

2.726472 s more or 1.5874 times more time is taken than 10-lb roast.

Explanation:

Given:

- The cooking time t is related the mass of food m by:

                                    t = m^(2/3)

- Mass of roast 1 m_1 = 20 lb

- Mass of roast 2 m_2 = 10 lb

Find:

how much longer does a 20-lb roast take than a 10-lb roast?

Solution:

- Compute the times for individual roasts using the given relation:

                                  t_1 = (20)^(2/3) = 7.36806 s

                                  t_2 = (10)^(2/3) = 4.641588 s

- Now take a ration of t_1 to t_2, to see how many times more time is taken by massive roast:

                                  t_1 / t_2 = (20 / 10)^(2/3)

- Compute:                t_1 / t_2 = 2^(2/3) = 1.5874 s

- Hence, a 20-lb roast takes 1.5874 times more seconds than 10- lb roast.

                                  t_2 - t_1 = 2.726472 s more
