Answer:

d = 2 [m].

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of energy, where the mechanical energy in a state plus the work done on the body, must be equal to the mechanical energy in the state E. This can be easily represented in the following equation.

E_{A}+W_{A-E}=E_{E}

where:

Ea = Mechanical energy in A [J]

Wa-e = Work among states a and e [J]

Ee = Mechanical energy in E [J].

The key to being able to understand this problem is that in state A, we only have kinetic energy, while the energy in state E is equal to zero (there is no movement). The work is equal to the product of force by distance, as work acts in the opposite direction to movement, this has a negative sign.

10 - F*d = 0\\5*d = 10\\d = 10/5\\d = 2 [m]

Which is an action/reaction force pair? check all that apply.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

According to Newton's third law, for every action force there is an equal (in size) and opposite (in direction) reaction force. Together, these two forces exerted upon two different objects form the action-reaction force pair.

How would the composition of an atom change if both the atomic number and mass number each increase by one? A) The atom would ha
weqwewe [10]
Choice-B is the correct one. 

-- The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus.
-- Each proton in the nucleus is usually matched by one electron in the 'cloud'.
-- The addition of a proton OR a neutron increases the mass number by 1 .
-- Electrons have such small mass that they don't figure into the atomic mass at all.
