Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

The weight of an object is dependent upon the mass and the value of acceleration due to gravity:

W = mg

Since the value of acceleration due to gravity (g) changes from planet to planet. Hence, the weight of an object also changes with location.

Friction depends upon the material of surfaces and the weight.

F = (coefficient of friction)W

Since weight changes with location. Therefore, the friction also changes with location.

The mass of an object is the quantity of matter contained in the body. It remains constant anywhere in the universe.

Hence, the correct option is:

Answer: amplitude

Explanation: This describes the maximum amount of the displacement of a particle from it rest position. Usually, it is measured in metres

Since we are considering AM which is amplitude modulation, a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for broadcasting information through a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is diversified in proportion to that of the message signal being broadcasted.

An object is hung from a spring balance attached to the ceiling of an elevator cab. The balance reads 65 N when the cab is stand

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

(A) Reading will be 65 N

(B) Net force on the elevator will be 49.076 N

Explanation:

We have given the balance force = 65 N

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We know that W=mg

So $65=m\times 9.8$

m = 6.632 kg

(a) In first case as the as the speed is constant so the force on the elevator will be 65 N

(B) In second case as the elevator is decelerating at a rate of $2.4m/sec^2$

So net acceleration = 9.8-2.4= $7.4m/sec^2$

So net force on elevator will be = m× net acceleration = 6.632×7.4 = 49.076 N

A 0.73-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the bar

Tasya [4]

Answer:

A) B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T, B) the positive side of the bar is to the West

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we must use the expression of Faraday's law for a moving body

fem = $- \frac{d \phi }{dt}$

fem = $- \frac{d (B l y}{dt}= - B l v$ - d (B l y) / dt = - B lv

B = $- \frac{fem}{l \ v}$

we calculate

B = - 7.9 10⁻⁴ /(0.73 20)

B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T

B) to determine which side of the bar is positive, we must use the right hand rule

the thumb points in the direction of the rod movement to the south, the magnetic field points in the horizontal direction and the rod is in the east-west direction.

Therefore the force points in the direction perpendicular to the velocity and the magnetic field is in the east direction; therefore the positive side of the bar is to the West

e-lub [12.9K]

You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.

What type of lens does our eye function as, and what is it's purpose?

yKpoI14uk [10]

It is D because our eye lenses reflect the white light we see and it also reflects the light to a point to where we can see colors and objects clearly... Hope this helps out ^-^''
