Friction occurs when a swimmer pushes through the water to swim. 

Hope this helps:)

An equal and opposite reaction force is exerted on the swimmer by the water, propelling the swimmer in the direction opposite to his push.
Also, he usually gets his hair wet.

A charged comb often attracts small bits of dry paper that then fly away when they touch the comb. Explain why that occurs.
MAVERICK [17]

Explanation:

Since the comb has a net charge, it attracts the paper, which has a net charge equal to zero. When the paper touches the comb, an electrical interaction is established between the charge of the comb and the neutral paper, because of this, the paper now has a net charge with the same sign of the comb and they repel.

Balanced forces act on a ball that is being held above the ground in someone's hand. explain why these forces on the ball are ba
Licemer1 [7]
Hi Andrescruz9386

The ball in someone's hand is a balanced force because the object is staying in motion and is not changing at all so its evenly balanced, if its swinging back and fourth it is in motion and it wont stop till it becomes unbalanced, if the ball is just being held above the ground yes its balanced because nothing Is happening to it, its basically like a balance scale, if both sides are even and equal, than nothing will happen because there is no side that has more or less its equal so that's why its balanced, in order for it to be unbalanced it has to be brought upon unbalanced forces.

At very high pressures, gases become ____________ and will eventually _______________.
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

B) more dense; change to a liquid or solid

Explanation:

When the pressure of a gas is increased, the average distance between the molecules decreases. In fact, if we assume that the temperature of the gas is kept constant, then we have

pV=const.

which means that the product between pressure and volume is constant: so, if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, and therefore the density of the gas increases (because density is inversely proportional to the volume, d=\frac{m}{V})

Moreover, at very high pressure, the gas can turns into a liquid and eventually into a solid: in fact, as the average distance between the molecules decreases more and more, at some point they becomes so close to each other that the intermolecular forces start to be relevant, turning the gas into a liquid.

You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. You are 110 m from an intersection when the light turns red. You have a reaction
Lynna [10]

Answer:

a)

reaction time = 0.70 s

distance travelled in reaction time = v*t

= 20 m/s * 0.70 s

= 14 m

So, when brake is applied, distance remaining= 110 m - 14 m = 96 m

Answer: 96 m

b)

vf = 0 m/s

d = 96 m

vi = 20 m/s

use:

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d

0 = 20^2 + 2*a*96

-400 = 2*a*96

a = -2.08 m/s^2

Answer: -2.08 m/s^2

c)

use:

vf = vi + a*t

0 = 20 - 2.08*t

t = 9.6 s

Answer: 9.6 s

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

First: Leave a couple inches of wire loose at one end and wrap most of the rest of the wire around iron  u-shaped bar and make sure not to overlap the wires.

Second:Cut the wire (if needed) so that there is about a couple inches loose at the other end too.

Third: Now remove about an inch of the plastic coating from both ends of the wire and connect the one wire to one end of a battery and the other wire to the other end of the battery.
