If an object is not moving, does that mean there are no forces acting up on it? Why or why not?

Answer:

If an object is at rest, then there are no forces acting upon the object.

Explanation:

It would take an unbalanced force to keep an object in motion at a constant velocity. It is the natural tendency of all objects to eventually come to a rest position.

A jet airplane is in level flight. The mass of the airplane is m=9010kg. The airplane travels at a constant speed around a circu

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The magnitude of the lift force L = 92.12 kN

The required angle is ≅ 16.35°

Explanation:

From the given information:

mass of the airplane = 9010 kg

radius of the airplane R = 9.77 mi

period T = 0.129 hours = (0.129 × 3600) secs

= 464.4 secs

The angular speed can be determined by using the expression:

ω = 2π / T

ω = 2 π/ 464.4

ω = 0.01353 rad/sec

The direction $\theta = tan^{-1} ( \dfrac{\omega ^2 R}{g})$

$\theta = tan^{-1} ( \dfrac{0.01353 ^2 \times (9.77\times 1609)}{9.81})$

θ = 16.35°

The magnitude of the lift force L = mg ÷ Cos(θ)

L = (9010 × 9.81) ÷ Cos(16.35)

L = 88388.1 ÷ 0.9596

L = 92109.32 N

L = 92.12 kN

Steel blocks A and B, which have equal masses, are at TA = 300 oC and T8 = 400 oC. Block C, with mc - 2mA, is at TC = 350 oC. Bl

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

b) TA = TB = TC

Explanation:

When put in contact each other, and isolated, both blocks will exchange heat till they reach to thermal equilibrium.
During this process, the body at a higher temperature, will loss heat, tat it will be gained by the other body.
The equilibrium condition will be reached when the following equation be met:

$\Delta Q = c_{st}* m_{A} * (T_{fin} - T_{0A} ) = c_{st}* m_{B} * (T_{0B} - T_{fin} )$

Replacing by the values of T₀A = 300º C, and T₀B = 400ºC, and simplifying common terms as mA = mB, we can solve for Tfin, as follows:

$(400 \ºC - T_{fin}) = (T_{fin} - 300 \ºC) \\ \\ 2* T_{fin} = 700\ºC\\ \\ T_{fin} = 350\ºC$

So, when both blocks reach to equilibrium, they will be at a common final temperature, 350ºC.
When put in contact with block C, at the same temperature, at that instant, the three blocks will have the same common temperature of 350 ºC.
So, option b) is the right one.

You need to determine the density of a ceramic statue. If you suspend it from a spring scale, the scale reads 28.4 NN . If you t

shtirl [24]

Answer:

2491.23 kg/m³

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = weight of object in air/ upthrust in water = density of the object/density of water

⇒ W/U = D/D' ....................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the ceramic statue, U = upthrust of the ceramic statue in water, D = density of the ceramic statue, D' = density of water.

Making D the subject of the equation,

D = D'(W/U).................... Equation 2

Given: W = 28.4 N, U = lost in weight = weight in air- weight in water

U = 28.4 - 17.0 = 11.4 N,

Constant: D' = 1000 kg/m³.

Substitute into equation 2,

D = 100(28.4/11.4)

D = 2491.23 kg/m³

Hence the density of the ceramic statue = 2491.23 kg/m³
