Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

Fnet = Fapp + Fg

Where;

Fnet is the net force.

Fapp is the applied force.

Fg is the force due to gravitation.

In this scenario, a stalled car is being pushed up a hill at constant velocity by three people. Thus, the net force on the car is zero because all the forces acting on any physical object is equal to zero and represents a constant velocity; by balancing or cancelling each other out.

According to Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion which is known as Law of Inertia, it states that an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

You throw a stone horizontally at a speed of 5.0 m/s from the top of a cliff that is 78.4 m high.
Monica [59]

a)You throw a stone horizontally at a speed of 5.0 m/s from the top of a cliff that is 78.4 m high.

from above statement we got

height = 78.4 m

since the ball is thrown, so its vertical velocity would be zero

u = 0

taking g = 9.8m/s^2

now, using the equation of motion

h = ut + gt^2/2

now putting all the values in it

we got ,

78.4 = 9.8 * t^2/ 2

by solving we got,

t = 4 sec

b) now, since along the horizontal , no force acting and accelaration is zero so

R = ut , R is RANGE

R = 5 * 4

range =  20 m

c)  vertical components of the stone’s velocity just before it hits the ground = v sin θ =

horizontal   components of the stone’s velocity  just before it hits the ground = v cos θ

How to convert from fahrenheit to celsius
kaheart [24]
The formula for Fahrenheit and Celsius conversion is 
T(°F)<span> = </span>T(°C)<span> × 1.8 + 32
where T is temperature in F or C ( Fahrenheit or Celsius whatever is the case)
</span>This means that keeping this FORMULA in mind we can add different values to it and  accordingly convert values from one to another.
Some examples of fahrenheit conversions to Celsius are :
32°F = 0°C  using F = (0 x 1.8) + 32

After it was discovered, astronomers predicted Uranus's orbit using Newton's laws of motion and gravity, which had worked extrem
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

A. Check for other previously undiscovered factors that might alter Uranus's orbit while still allowing it to obey Newton's laws of motion and gravity.

Explanation:

Uranus behaved in a way that Newton's laws of motion could not explain. But this law predicted very well the behavior of other planets, so it could not be totally wrong or discarded, so it was decided to look for whether there was a planet beyond Uranus, which would alter its movement. The search was done and this is how <u>Neptune </u>was discovered, and by adding the attraction that Neptune would have on Uranus, its orbit could be calculated correctly by Newton's laws of motion.

Since Newton's law of gravitation had worked so well it was more likely that there were unknown factors that would alter his movement, rather than the laws no longer working or the data being wrong.

Later Newton's law of gravitation was modified by Einstein to take into account the effects of relativity. But Newton's laws work very well to describe the solar system.
