What the heck is inertia

Physics
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
6 0
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.

A 4 kg car with frictionless wheels is on a ramp that makes a 25° angle with the horizontal. The car is connected to a 1 kg mass
stellarik [79]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

W₁ = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N
W₂ = (1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 9.8 N

The normal reaction on the 4-kg mass is
N = (39.2 N)*cos(25°) = 35.5273 N
The force acting down the inclined plane due to the weight is
F = (39.2 N)*sin(25°) = 16.5666 N

The net force that accelerates the 4-kg mass at a m/²s down the plane is
F - W₂ = (4 kg)*(a m/s²)
4a = 16.5666 - 9.8
a = 1.6917 m/s²

Answer: 1.69 m/s²  (nearest hundredth)

Explanation:

When a ray passes through focus and incident on a concave mirror then it will travel parallel to principal axis after reflection.Hence the image is formed at infinity.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

3.6\times10^{23} N

Explanation:

F=\frac{GmM}{r^2}=4\times10^{22} N

F'=\frac{GmM}{(r/3)^2}=9\frac{GmM}{r^2}=9\times4\times10^{22}=3.6\times10^{23} N
