Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

suppose, you push a box with 5 N, and another person pushes the box on the opposite side of the box with 5 N, the net force (resultant ) is 0 N, the box will not move if it wasn't moving

hope this helps

A cart travels down a ramp at an average speed of 5.00 centimeters/second. What is the speed of the cart in miles/hour? (Remembe

viva [34]

Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.

$( \frac{ 5 cm}{1 sec} ) *( \frac{1m }{100cm})*( \frac{1km}{1000m} )*( \frac{1mi}{1.6km} ) = 0.00003125 mi/sec \\ \\ ( \frac{0.00003125 mi}{1sec} )*( \frac{60sec}{1min} )*( \frac{60min}{1hr} )=0.1125 mi/hr$

Benjamina started her walk from the front door of her ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the corner of the building

Cloud [144]

The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.

A student walks (2.9±0.1)m, stops and then walks another (3.9 ±0.2)m in the same directionWith the given uncertainties, what is

Anika [276]

Answer:

The smallest distance the student that the student could be possibly be from the starting point is 6.5 meters.

Explanation:

For 2 quantities A and B represented as

$A\pm \Delta A$ and $B\pm \Delta B$

The sum is represented as

$Sum=(A+B)\pm (\Delta A+\Delta B)$

For the the values given to us the sum is calculated as

$Sum=(2.9+3.9)\pm (0.1+0.2)$

$Sum=6.8\pm 0.3$

Now the since the uncertainity inthe sum is $\pm 0.3$

The closest possible distance at which the student can be is obtained by taking the negative sign in the uncertainity

Thus closest distance equals $6.8-0.3=6.5$ meters

A decrease in the magnitude of the velocity is called

allochka39001 [22]

That's one of the three changes that are called "acceleration".

The other two are:

-- increase in the magnitude

-- change in direction.

Some might call a decrease in the magnitude "deceleration".
