Your friend says that if Newton’s third law is correct, no object would ever start moving. Here is his argument: You pull a sled

exerting a 50 N force on it. According to Newton’s third law the sled exerts the force of 50 N on you in the opposite direction. The total force is zero, thus the sled should never start moving. But it does. Thus Newton’s third law is wrong. What is your opinion about this answer? How can you convince your friend of your opinion?

Answer:

Explanation:

You pull a sled exerting a 50 N force on it , sled also exerts a force on you . These forces are action and reaction force , as per third law of Newton . These two forces are equal and  opposite . But they do not act on the same object so they do not cancel each other . They act on different objects , one on the sledge and the other on you . Due to force on sledge , sledge moves in the direction of force or towards you . You will start moving in opposite direction if frictional force of ground is nil or less .

In which of the following materials is the velocity of light greatest?
just olya [345]
<span>The velocity of light is by far the greatest in air. There is nothing in air to stop or impede the movement of light in air. When light travels in air it will not stop unless running into clouds, smoke, smoke, droplets, or impurities. Any other substance is harder for light to travel through.</span>

How long does water evaporation take? What factors influence it?
svetoff [14.1K]
There is no certain time on how long it takes. Because the factors will always be different and the factors heavily affect the evaporation time. Some factors include: humidity, heat, how the sun is visible (whether clouds are covering it or not)

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s^2.

So to calculate the time it will take to make the ball stop(which btw means the ball now reach its greatest height), use the formula V1=V0+at. V1 is the final velocity(which is 0), V0 is the starting velocity(which is 30m/s), and the a(cceleration) is 9.8m/s^2.

(You can ignore the fact "at" is -30 instead 30, it's because the directions two velocity travel are opposite. )

We can now know the time it takes to make the ball stop just by the gravitational force is about 3 sec.

Use another formula S=1/2at^2, to find out the S(height) is 1/2*9.8*3^2=44.1, which is approximately D.45m .
