The answer is A- a resistance of any physical object to any change in its state of motion.

Explanation- Inertia means the resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion. Newton's conception of inertia stood in direct opposition to more popular conceptions about motion. The dominant thought prior to Newton's day was that it was the natural tendency of objects to come to a rest position.

The friction force between a bag and the floor is 4 N. what is the net force acting on the bag? What is the acceleration of the

tester [92]

Well, if the bag is moving across the floor at a constant velocity. Then I would assume that the Fnet force is equal to 0, and thus the value of acceleration would also be equal to 0.

A cube of water 10 cm on a side is placed in a microwave beam having Ea = 11 kV/m‘ The microwaves illuminate one faceofthe cube,

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The time is 133.5 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

One side of cube = 10 cm

Intensity of electric field = 11 kV/m

Suppose How long will it take to raise the water temperature by 41°C Assume that the water has no heat loss during this time.

We need to calculate the rate of energy transfer from the beam to the cube

Using formula of rate of energy

$P=(0.80)IA$

$P=0.80\times\dfrac{c\mu_{0}E^2}{2}\times A$

Put the value into the formula

$P=0.80\times\dfrac{3\times10^{8}\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(1.1\times10^{4})^2}{2}\times(10\times10^{-2})^2$

$P=1285.02\ W$

We need to calculate the amount of heat

Using formula of heat

$E =mc\Delta T$

$E =\rho Vc\Delta T$

Put the value into the formula

$E=1000\times(0.10)^3\times4186\times41$

$E=171626\ J$

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

$t=\dfrac{E}{P}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{171626}{1285.02}$

$t=133.5\ sec$

Hence, The time is 133.5 sec.

Which scientist described an atom made of a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it?.

swat32

The scientist that described an atom made a solid positively charged substance with electrons dispersed throughout it was: Ernest Rutherford

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford proposed his atomic model in which he considered the atom as a positively, densely charged center called a nucleus in which the electrons circulate around the core with a negative charge.

The atom is the smallest part of the composition of matter, it is indivisible and is composed of a nucleus that has protons and neutrons, and around the nucleus there are the electrons.
