Answer:
<em>No, a rigid body cannot experience any acceleration when the resultant force acting on the body is zero.</em>
Explanation:
If the net force on a body is zero, then it means that all the forces acting on the body are balanced and cancel out one another. This sate of equilibrium can be static equilibrium (like that of a rigid body), or dynamic equilibrium (that of a car moving with constant velocity)
For a body under this type of equilibrium,
ΣF = 0 ...1
where ΣF is the resultant force (total effective force due to all the forces acting on the body)
For a body to accelerate, there must be a force acting on it. The acceleration of a body is proportional to the force applied, for a constant mass of the body. The relationship between the net force and mass is given as
ΣF = ma ...2
where m is the mass of the body
a is the acceleration of the body
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, we have
0 = ma
therefore,
a = 0
this means that<em> if the resultant force acting on a rigid body is zero, then there won't be any force available to produce acceleration on the body.</em>

Answer:
KE=800,000
Explanation:
The formula for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2 or Kinetic Energy= 0.5*mass*velocity^2
so 1000 is the mass and 40 is the velocity
KE=0.5*1000*40^2
KE=0.5*1,000*1,600
KE=800,000 Joules
Answer: Depends
Explanation:
Depends on how much the diver weighs.
The Answer is TRUE. Hope it helps
Answer:
There is no mechanical advantage
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.
For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.
In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.
