In order to overcome an object’s inertia (resistance to change), it must be acted upon by an unbalanced force, so the answer to the problem is letter C.

According to Newton's first law, the law of inertia, an object's velocity will not change unless it is acted upon by an outside force. This means that objects at rest tend to stay at rest, and objects in motion tend to stay in motion.

You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle
AlekseyPX

Answer:

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}

now we have

- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we have

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

A train of mass 5.6 × 10^5kg is at rest in a station.at time t=0s, a resultant force acts on the train and it starts to accelera
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

420000N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the train  = 5.6 x 10⁵kg

Acceleration  = 0.75m/s²

Unknown:

Resultant force = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law, force is the product of mass and acceleration;

   Force  = mass x acceleration

Resultant force that acts on the train is given below;

 Force  = 5.6 x 10⁵kg  x 0.75m/s²  = 420000N

Sarah's mother gets a flat tire on her car while driving Sarah to school. They use a jack to change the tire. It exerts a force
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1250 J

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force causes an object to move over a distance. The amount of work done (W) is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance traveled.

That is;

W = F × d

Where;

W = work done (J or N/m)

F = force (N)

d = distance (m)

Based on the information provided in this question, F = 5000N, d = 0.25m

Hence;

W = F × d

W = 5000 × 0.25

W = 1250J

Therefore, 1250Joules of work is done by the jack.

what is an example of a environmental issue and how was it impacted by humans. please explain in detail where this issue is occu
Burka [1]
An example of an environmental issue is the acid rain in Germany. The acid rain is caused by pollution. Pollution that was caused by car putting harmful gases into the air is the main reason that there is acid rain in Germany. This is a problem because the acid rain is destroying Germany’s forests. Hope this helped!
