At baseball practice, Mason and Alfredo both picked up the same bat and neither would let go until one of them had it for himsel

f. Mason pulled the bat with
force of 15 newtons (N) while Alfredo pulled with a force of 20 newtons (N). Why did Alfredo end up with the bat?

A because the force was 5 N in Mason's direction

B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction

c. O because the net force was 15 N in Mason's direction

D.O because the net force was 20 N in Alfredo's direction

Answer:

Option B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction

Explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:

Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N

Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = 20 – 15

Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction

From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.

Which term best describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving at a particular moment? Question 2 options: acceler
kompoz [17]

Answer:

Instantaneous velocity

Explanation:

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

Average velocity = total displacement divided by total time taken

Position = It shows the location of the object

Instantaneous velocity = It is the velocity of an object at a particular instant.

The term that describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving at a particular moment is "instantaneous velocity". It is basically equal to the derivative of position wrt time.

Three resistors, 21 Ω, 58 Ω, and 64 Ω, are connected in series, and a 0.50-A current passes through them. What are (a) the equiv
adoni [48]
<h2>a) Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω</h2><h2>b) Potential difference is 71.5 V</h2>

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, effective resistance is given by

                R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3+......

Here

         R₁ = 21Ω

         R₂ = 58Ω

         R₃ = 64Ω

a)      R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3\\\\R_{eff}=21+58+64\\\\R_{eff}=143\Omega

  Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω

b) We know

               Potential difference = Current x Resistance

               V = IR

               I = 0.5 A

               R = 143Ω

Substituting

               V = 0.5 x 143 = 71.5 V

Potential difference is 71.5 V

Does a stove have mechanical energy
Ainat [17]

-- Any object has gravitational potential energy relative to any place
lower than where the object is.  The stove in the kitchen has potential
energy relative to the basement floor.

-- If an object is not moving, then it has no kinetic energy. The stove has
no kinetic energy unless you throw it or drop it out of a window.

A hole is drilled in a metal plate. When the metal is raised to a higher temperature, what happens to the diameter of the hole?
zysi [14]

Answer:

The diameter of the hole increases

Explanation:

Metals expand and contract with temperature. Whenever metal is heated, it usually expands in relation to its thermal expansivity. This expansion leads to a slight increase in surface area.

Once the surface area of the metal changes, this means that the dimensions of the whole metal surface changed. As a result, the diameter of the hole drilled in the metal plate will change also. In our case, the diameter of the hole will increase.
