Answer:

Radio Waves

Explanation:

Radio wave is a type of electromagnetic radiation notorious for their use in technologies used for communication like air traffic control, mobile phones, televisions and remote-controlled toys. Radio waves have the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum and are easily transmitted through air.

A radar gun uses radio waves to tell how far away an object is. To do that, the radar tool emits a focused radio wave and listens for any echo. If there is an item, say a car within the route of the radio wave, it's going to replicate some of the electromagnetic energy, and the radio wave will return to the radar gun. Radio waves flow via the air at a steady pace, so the radar gun can calculate how far the object is based totally on how long it takes the radio signal to return.

A dumbell has a mass of 95 kg. What force must be applied to accelerate it upward at 2.2 m/s2?
Sveta_85 [38]
A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209

.:. The force is 209 N

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

D. It has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A principle is simply a proposition based on some results from some experiments. A principle becomes a law when it gains strength. That is when other scientists support and back it.

A scientific law is a statement that describes a natural phenomenon and is not contradicted by repeated experiments over the time.

Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravitation stated "A gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them."

His law explained that every body in the universe attracts every other body. It explained that it is not just Earth that pulls us towards it. But even sun and moon has their own gravitational pull and so does all other objects. It is just that the Gravitational pull of some objects is negligible.

Newton's law of Gravitation is considered a universal law because it is applicable to almost all the bodies in the universe and is demonstrated to be correct for them under certain conditions.

Pleaseeeee HELPPPP THIS IS TIMED ALSO,
TEA [102]

Answer:

Friction, normal force, and weight

Explanation:

If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.

Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)

Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.
