5 0

Answer:

yo they deleted my answer. The answer is 0N

Explanation:

so when two forces pull on an object from opposite sides with the same force (in this case its 20N), then the object is in equilibrium at 0N.

So its clear that there is one person on the the opposite side.

SOOO  generally<u>: (left or down) would be considered </u><u>negative</u><u> in an equation. And the other person  (right or up) would be considered </u><u>positive</u><u>.</u> So if both forces are the same numbers on opposite sides then the answer is 0 (if you add both of them).

<em>0 is the number of equilibrium.</em>

OK, so the equation would be -20N + 20N and then badda bing badda boom viola, the answer: 0N

thanks for coming to my TED talk. I hope they don't delete this answer.

Daltons theory was identified using
Margaret [11]
<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Dalton’s theory can be classified by the following hypotheses:

1) All material was formed of particles, unbreakable and strong construction segments.

2) All particles of a given component are indistinguishable in volume and characteristics

3) Compounds are determined by a mixture of two or more distinct kinds of atoms.

4) Chemical responses appeared in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms.

This theory was to explain all matter in terms of atoms and their characteristics, the law of conservation of volume and the law of constant composition.

Why is Einstein's description of gravity called a theory, while Newton's is a law?
Ludmilka [50]
Albert Einstein came up with the theory of general relativity to explain the law of gravity, whilst Newton's three laws of gravity is universal. To understand this further, it's best to understand it in scientific terms.

The weird thing about science is that words that are used in a colloquial sense may have a completely opposite definition in scientific terms.

A law in science is a constant and invariable statement that is universal. Wherever you may be in the universe, Newton's three laws of gravity will always be applied.

The word "theory" doesn't imply conjecture or an idea someone made up after a night of drinking. In science, a theory is the highest level of certainty behind mathematical proof -- which isn't even a part of science, obviously. A theory has to be substantiated by all available evidence and contradicted by none. All theories also have to have to be falsifiable. For this reason, theories can never be proven. Einstein's theory of general relativity has great predictive power, but in some cases, the predictions aren't always constant. Theories are often revised to fit new available evidence.

Definition: A potential path for the flow of electricity with at least one gap in the path that prevents this flow. The gap is u
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Open circuit

Explanation:

An open circuit is simply an electrical circuit that is not complete. In such a circuit, there is a gap and this will not allow the electric current to pass through.

Despite all the elements being complete in the circuit, an open circuit will halt the flow of electric current and will not do deliver the necessary energy it is supposed to.

In such a circuit, the wires are cut of and not connected properly.

The reverse is a closed circuit.

Answer:

a=40\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a shuttlecock, u = 30 m/s

Final speed of the shuttlecock, v = 10 m/s

Time, t = 0.5 s

We need to find its average acceleration. The acceleration of an object is equal to the change in speed divided by time taken. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{10-30}{0.5}\\\\a=-40\ m/s^2

So, the average acceleration of badminton shuttlecock is 40\ m/s^2.
