Answer:

c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.

Explanation:

The linear acceleration is defined as the rate of change of linear velocity. Since the bicycle is moving in the same direction, with the same speed, without speeding up or slowing down. Therefore, there will be no change in linear velocity and as a result, linear acceleration will be zero.

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Since the angular velocity is changing its direction constantly. Therefore, it has a certain component of acceleration at all times called centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>c. Only the linear acceleration is zero.</u>

The weight of an object is measured in air to be 7.0 N. The
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Buoyant force = 3.0 N

The object will not float.

Explanation:

Apparent weight of a body immersed in water is the actual weight of object minus buoyant force

Given in the question that;

Weight of object in air = 7.0 N

Apparent weight of object = 4.0 N

4.0 N = 7.0 N - Buoyant force

Buoyant force = 7.0 - 4.0 = 3.0 N

In this case, the buoyant force is less than weight of the object thus the object will sink.

Jerry is conducting an experiment to test friction. His setup is shown below. If he wants to test the friction between different
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the setup which as been attached below. The setup shows/determines/tests the friction of wood (which is a block material), since Jerry wants to test the friction between different types of materials, he will have to replace the wooden block with another type of block material of choice so as to determine the friction of that also.

In order to have a comprehensive experiment, Jerry can use 4-5 different types of block material in the course of the experiment.

Two forces F1=20N and F2=30N are acting on an object as shown in figure: F1=20N F2=30N (i) Find the net force acting on the obje
Harman [31]

The net force is the 10N force and its direction is towards F2 force.

<h3>What is resultant force?</h3>

The resultant force or the net force is the actual force that acts on a body. We are told that the two forces act in opposite directions hence the net force is F2 - F1  = 30 N - 20 N = 10 N.

ii) The direction of this net force is going to be towards the 30N force.

iii) If the body does not move under the application of these forces then the F1 force must be reinforced by another force which balances it against the F2 force.
