How is the motion of an object affected when a force acts on it?
Arada [10]

Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia. When the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can cause an object to accelerate or decelerate. Unbalanced forces can also cause an object to change direction.

Hope that helps!

What is the density of a piece of wood with a mass of 25 kg<br> and a volume of 0.0385 m³?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

649kg/m^3

Explanation:

Let p be the density of this particular object.

Formula for density:

p =  \frac{mass \: (in \: kg)}{volume \: (in \:  {m}^{3}) }

We can substitute the givenmass and volume to find density of the object.

p =  \frac{25kg}{0.0385 {m}^{3} }  \\  = 649kg \: per \:  {m}^{3}

Therefore the density of this object is 649kg/m^3.
