When will an object falling toward earth stop accelerating

Physics

Answer:

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

As an object falls, it picks up speed. The increase in speed leads to an increase in the amount of air resistance. Eventually, the force of air resistance becomes large enough to balances the force of gravity. At this instant in time, the net force is 0 Newton; the object will stop accelerating. An object falling toward earth stop accelerating when it velocity becomes terminal velocity. Or When weight becomes equal to Drag force acting on the object due to air resistance.

How does the law of conservation of mass apply to this reaction:Al+3HCl-->H2+AlCl3
Veronika [31]
This reaction is unbalanced. If you balance it, it would be:


2Al + 6HCl --> 3H2 + 2AlCl3

That way there are two aluminums on each side, six hydrogens on each side, and six chlorines on each side.

Suppose that you have been chosen for a space mission to a distant planet. Due to the length of time you'll be away from Earth y
Contact [7]

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

. What happens to the polarity of an electromagnet when the direction of the current passing through it is reversed?
eduard

Answer:

The polarity of electromagnet also gets reversed when the direction of current is reversed. The current flows from negative terminal to positive terminal in an electromagnet due to the flow of electrons so polarity is also established in the electromagnet. As, the current direction is reversed, the polarity of magnet also gets reversed because the polarity of magnet depends on the direction of the current.
