Newton's second law of motion<span> can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net </span>force<span> is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net </span>force, in the same direction as the netforce<span>, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object</span>

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration of the object. Mathematically, it is given by :

F=m\times a

It is also defined as the rate of change of linear momentum is directly proportional to the applied external force i.e.

F=\dfrac{dp}{dt}

If the momentum of the system is constant, the net force acting on it is equal to 0. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following statements about comets is true? A. Comets rarely fall into an orbit around the Sun. They usually enter t
GREYUIT [131]
<h2>Right answer: Comets have very elliptical orbits that usually take them far beyond the orbit of Pluto, but also take them closer to the Sun than Earth</h2>

Comets are celestial bodies constituted by ice, dust and rocks that orbit around the Sun, after having been altered by the Oort cloud; following different trajectories that can be <u>highly eccentric elliptical</u><u> </u>(periodic trajectories), parabolic or hyperbolic.

One of the main characteristics of a comet is that it travels quite fast, on its way around the Sun and has a long tail. It should be noted that the tails of comets always go in the opposite direction to the Sun (due to the radiation pressure of sunlight).

Therefore, the correct option is C.

By considering action-reacton forces,identify why water rises up a thin capillary tube
netineya [11]

The forces of attraction between water molecules and the glass walls and within the molecules of water themselves are what enable the water to rise in a thin tube immersed in water.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Surface or interfacial forces lead to capillarity. The forces of attraction between the water molecules and the glass walls and among the water molecules themselves are what causes the water in a thin tube submerged in water to rise.

Hence, the water rises up a thin capillary tube can be explained by Newton's third law.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;

Name two kinds of longitudinal waves and explain how you know they are longitudinal.
dezoksy [38]
A transverse wave and a longitudinal wave.

Transverse:wave particles move at medium speed in perpendicular to the direction that the waves move

Longitudinal:wave particles move at medium speed in parallel to the direction that the wave moves

Hope this helps ^-^
