Answer:

D) side to side

Explanation:

The frictional force act on the cube in the side to side direction. The friction force acts opposite to the direction of the motion of an object which reduces its speed or sometimes prevent it from moving from one place to another. In order to reduce the force of friction, the body has to move by rolling instead of sliding and use of lubrication on the surface on which the object moves.

the force has to be specified both in terms of its magnitude as well as its direction true or false?

The strength of a force is usually expressed by its magnitude. We have also to specify the direction in which a force acts.

Microwaves are one of the lowest energies on the electromagnetic spectrum. While X-Rays are one of the highest energies on the electromagnetic spectrum. One similarity is that they are both on the electromagnetic spectrum. Also they both travel at the spped of light in a vacuum. One way they are different is They have different frequencies and wavelengths. Also they are used for different studies.

Why is it important for a scientist to be open-minded but skeptical?

insens350 [35]

It’s important for a scientist to be open-minded because they need to be able to understand or creative anything that was never thought about. It’s also important for a scientist to be skeptical because some ideas or products that they hear about can have false factors. I hope this helped!

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 4m/s to 12m/s in a period of 1 s. What is your acceleration?

den301095 [7]

We use the following formula to determine our acceleration:
$acceleration = \frac{(final velocity) - (initial velocity)}{time} = \frac{change of velocity}{time}$
We normally use letters in this formula, which gives us:
$a = \frac{v}{t}$

Filling in this formula gives us:
Δv (change of velocity) = 12 - 4 = 8 m/s
t = 1s
$a = \frac{8}{1} = 8 m/s^2$
So our answer: the acceleration is $8m/ s^{2}$
