<span>Alice and Tom will reach the surface of the lake at the same time. In this problem. Both Alice and Tom have 2 components to their velocities. A horizontal component and an increasing vertical component due to gravity. They start out with different horizontal components, but that component does not in any way contribute to their vertical velocities. Since they both started out at the same height and the same vertical velocities, they will reach the surface of the lake at the same time.</span>

Rahul wants to change the motion map shown so that it shows uniform circular motion. What change should Rahul make?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

B. He should change the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle so that each is the same length.

Explanation:

A uniform circular motion is a motion in a circle where the tangential speed of the object is constant.

In the motion map:

- The arrows pointing towards the centre of the circle represent the centripetal acceleration, and their length represent the magnitude of the acceleration

- The arrows pointing tangential to the circle represent the tangential speed, and their length represent the magnitude of the speed

In this motion map, we see that the length of the vectors pointing tangent to the circle is not constant: this means that the speed is not constant. In order to have a uniform circular motion, the speed must be constant, therefore the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle must be the same.

patriot [66]
Milk, apples, and beans don't have much carbohydrate.  So if you
cut down on those, you don't really cut down much on carbohydrates.

If Rachel needs to reduce her intake of carbohydrates, she should
cut down on bread.  (Also cake, sugar, corn, pasta, and potatoes.)

Is a force necessary to keep an object in motion?
weqwewe [10]
Well according to Newton’s first law of motion, a body will remain in the state of rest or linear motion provided that an *external force* has been applied. So no, a force doesn’t need to keep a body to remain in linear motion, because F=ma, during uniform linear motion velocity is constant, hence acceleration is zero, so F=0
