Answer:

Net force = 10 N in downward direction

Explanation:

Given that,

Upward force = 10 N

Downward force = 20 N

Let downward is negative and upward is positive.

Net force = 10+(-20)

= -10 N

So, the net force is 20 N and it is acting in downward direction.

Which features on mars point to the possibility of liquid water on the planet?
Stells [14]
     In 2011 NASA researchers identified features on Mars known as Recuring Slope Lineae ( or RSL ). RSL are relatively dark and narrow features.They are thought to be a signs of salty liquid water on Mars. One hypothesis for RSL formation is that they form when underground bodies of salty water leak into the surface.
   Answer: Recuring Slope Lineae.

There are many theories as to why ice ages occur. The currently accepted theory is that ice ages are caused by _____.
Harman [31]

Earlier in the text this question is provided for, you should be able to find the passage, "The currently accepted theory attributes ice ages to small changes in Earth's orbit, known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles describe how Earth's orbit gradually changes shape from more circular to more elliptical and back again. This happens roughly every 100,000 years. The orbital changes take Earth nearer and further from the Sun, which would affect the amount of energy reaching Earth."

Answer: Small changes in Earth's orbit

VikaD [51]

Answer:

156.96 N

Explanation:

F=ma where m is the mass and a is acceleration

Substituting 16 Kg for m and 9.81 m/s2 for g then

F=16*9.81= 156.96 N

Solar winds have an influence all the way to about 160 AU from the Sun. About how many kilometers is that?
Mumz [18]

Answer: A. 24,000,000,000 km

Explanation: An Astronomical Unit  commonly abbreviated as AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun and is about 150 million kilometers.

Astronomical unit is mainly used to measure distances within our solar system.

1 AU is equal to  150\times 10^6 km

Thus 160 AU  is equal to \frac{150\times 10^6}{1}\times 160=24000\times 10^6km=24000000000km
