An object experiences a net acceleration to the left. Which of the following statements about this object are true? There may be

more than one true statement below. Group of answer choices If there is one force to the left on the object, there must at least be one force on it to the right as well. There must be two or more forces on the object. The object cannot be slowing down. The net force on the object is to the right. If there is one force down on the object, there must at least be one force up on it as well. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude. Assume the forces on the object are unchanged. The object might be in equilibrium. If the mass of the object were halved, it would experience an acceleration to the right. Assume the forces on the object are unchanged. The net force on the object is to the left.

Answer:

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude

Explanation:

When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.

From Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of the object is given as;

a = ∑F / m

a = -F / m

The negative value of "a" indicates acceleration to the left

where;

∑F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

At a constant force, F = ma ⇒ m₁a₁ = m₂a₂

If the mass of the object was doubled, m₂ = 2m₁

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (m₂)

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (2m₁)

a₂ = ¹/₂(a₁)

Therefore, the following can be deduced from the acceleration of this object;

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude

In a two-body collision, if the momentum of the system is conserved, then which of the
lakkis [162]

Answer:

c) may also be conserved

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved  in both elastic and inelastic type of collisions.

But the differences is that:

In an ELASTIC type of collisions, KINETIC ENERGY IS ALSO CONSERVED.

whereas, In an INELASTIC type of collision, KINETIC ENERGY IS NOT CONSERVED.

So unless until type of collision is specified, we can not say anything about the conservation of kinetic energy after collision.

Hence, may also be conserved is the appropriate option here.

Galileo's discovery shows that, to an observer on Earth, Venus has phases just like Earth's moon. How did this observation provi
Pie

<u>Galileo's discovery shows that, to an observer on Earth, Venus has phases just like Earth's moon. This observation provide support for the heliocentric model of the solar system as follows:</u>

  • Galileo noticed the Moon is not flat, but rocky and rugged-just like the Earth did.
  • He used his telescope to observe the Venus phases. Galileo's findings confirmed his confidence in the concept of Copernicus that Earth and remaining planets revolve around the Sun, i.e. Heliocentrism.
  • While most individuals in Galileo's days assumed that the Earth was the center of the universe and that the Sun and planets revolved around it, i.e. geocentrism.
  • The idea of geocentric was generally preferred by the prominent and strong Catholic Church, and when Galileo started writing papers on his belief in a heliocentric with a valid explanation, he was called to Rome to face the inquisition's charges towards him.
  • Thus in early 1616 he was accused of being a heretic, but later he cleared of charges of "heresy" with warning that he should not spread his belief.
  • But he pursued his astronomy research, and was increasingly confident that all planets revolved around the Sun. Therefore  he published a book in 1632 which explained that Copernicus' heliocentric theory was appropriate.
  • Thus after this finally he was charged by "heresy" and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1633, but due to his poor health he lived imprisonment under house arrest and finally died on January 8, 1642.
