Answer:

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed, when no forces act upon them.

Explanation:

Some sort of a local field, maybe not our A field, is really the cause of inertia. When you push on an object a gravitational disturbance goes propagating off into either the past or the future. Out there in the past or future the disturbance makes the distant matter in the universe wiggle.

Consider the plot below describing motion along a straight line with an initial position of 10 m. −4 −3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$+1 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta v$ is the change in velocity

$\Delta t$ is the time interval in which the change in velocity occurs

To find the acceleration at 1 second, we can take the data at t = 1 s and t = 2. We find:

$\Delta t = -3 -(-4) = 1 s$

$\Delta v = 2 - (1) = +1 m/s$

So, the acceleration is

$a=\frac{+1}{1}=+1 m/s^2$

You drop a rock down a well that is 5.4 m deep. How long does it take the rock to hit the bottom of the well?

Natali5045456 [20]

Equation of motion:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

Since initial velocity is zero, the second term goes away:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+0+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}=y_{o}+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}=5.4m$

$5.4m= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{a} = t^{2}$

$a = g = 9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2}}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2} } } = t^{2}$

$1.1 s^{2} = t^{2}$ $\sqrt{1.1 s^{2}} = \sqrt{t^{2}}$

<u><em> $t = 1.05s$ </em></u>

If a machine increases force it must apply the force over a long distance? True or false

Eduardwww [97]

Answer: The machine must apply the force over a shorter distance. That's because a machine doesn't change the amount of work and work equals force times distance. Therefore, if force increases, distance must decrease

FALSE

The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the equation P = 2L + 2W, where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is th

sweet [91]

Answer:

The perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the equation P = 2L + 2W. With W = 12 units and L = 18 units, substituting the values in the equation above:

P = 2(18 units) + 2(12 units)

P = 36 units + 24 units

P = 60 units
