Motion and acceleration may only be used to refer to physical objects moving or changing speed/direction

Physics
1 answer:
san4es73 [151]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

It is TRUE that Motion and acceleration may only be used to refer to physical objects moving or changing speed/direction.

This is because if an object is not moving or changing speed/direction to a determined point of reference, the object is considered to be at rest or motionless, thereby, with no absolute point of reference, absolute motion or acceleration cannot be distinguished.

A iron block with a mass of 4.8 kg initially slides over a rough horizontal surface with a speed of 1.2 m/s. Friction slows the
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of block will be converted into heat energy by friction .

Heat energy produced = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 4.8 x 1.2²

= 3.456 J

85% of energy is converted into heat energy , so heat energy produced

= .85 x 3.456 = 2.9376 J .

If Q heat is given to m mass of object having s as specific heat and Δt is increase in temperature

Q = msΔt

specific heat of iron s = 462 J / kg C

Putting the values ,

2.9376 = 4.8 x 462 x Δt

Δt = 13.24 x 10⁻⁴ ⁰C.

Which of the following statements characterizing types of waves are true?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

a and b.

Explanation:

In general  types of wave

1. Transverse wave  :

    In these waves particle are vibrate perpendicular to motion of waves.

 Ex : Electromagnetic wave , Radio wave .

2. Longitudinal wave :

   In these waves particle are vibrate along the motion of waves.

 Ex : Sound wave

Mechanical wave  :

1 .These are transverse wave or Longitudinal wave or combination of them .

2.These waves required medium for propagation.

3. The particle are vibrate perpendicular to motion of waves.

So the option a and b are correct.
