Physics
1 answer:
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]4 years ago
6 0
An effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern and is important in the formation of cyclonic weather systems.

If an object is moving, then the magnitude of its ____ cannot be zero.
Bad White [126]
If an object is moving, then its speed and the magnitude
of its velocity aren't zero. 

If its velocity is constant (speed doesn't change and it's
moving in a straight line), then its acceleration is zero.

Looks like choice-D sums it up nicely.

A truck is parked at the bottom of a hill. It moves from the bottom of a hill
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

potential energy is stored energy that an object has due to its position or chemical composition. Since the truck has the possibility to move down the hill when it is at the top of the hill, it has a great amount of potential energy, howver when its at the bottom of the hill, it doesn’t have the possibility to move or can move v little due to its positions,  therefore it has little to no potienatal energy.
