Use Newton’s first law to explain why a book on a desk does not move

Physics

aleksley [76]2 years ago

Answer:

The book does not move because all the forces acting on the book are in equilibrium, creating a net force of zero magnitude on the book. Since the net force on the book is zero, this means that the book will remain in its present state of motion (which is that the book is motionless).

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that all body will remain in  their present state of motion unless acted upon by an external force. In order word, a moving body should continue moving forever, and a body at rest should remain like that forever, unless they are acted upon by a force to either cause them to stop stop or to start moving respectively.

Explain how the potential energy of two charged particles depends on the distance between the charged particles and on the magni
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's Law, the potential energy of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the distance between the charges.  Since the potential energy  of two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of the two charges, its magnitude increases as the charges of the particles increases. For like charges, the potential energy is positive(the product of the two alike charges must be positive) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the charges therefore it decreases as the particles get farther apart . For opposite charges, the potential energy is negative(the product of the two opposite charges must be negative) and since potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance between the two charges, it becomes more negative as the particles get closer together.

In a ballistics test, a 52g bullet hits a sand bag and stops after moving 1.34 m. If the initial bullat
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N
