An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by a force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by a force.

Answer:

Law of inertia is Newton's first law of motion..

Explanation:

It means that a body will tend to be in it's motion or tend to move in a straight line unless any external force is acted upon it..

Eg: while you are travelling in bus.. If breaks are suddenly applied your body falls forward because you were in motion with bus but it tries to be in motion when breaks are applied...

A) Julie is running to the right at 5 m/s, as shown in the 1st figure. Balls 1 and 2 are thrown toward her at 10 m/s by friends

Svetach [21]

Part 1)

here Julie is running at speed 5 m/s

So here two balls are thrown at speed 10 m/s towards Julie with respect to her friend standing on the ground.

So here this all speed is real speed of all.

Now as per Anita (let say she is one of her friend standing on ground) the speed of two balls will be same as the given speed as she is observing from ground or stationary frame

As per the frame of Julie

speed of ball 1

$v_{1j} = v_1 - v_j$

$v_{1j} = 10 - 5 = 5 m/s$ towards her in same side

speed of ball 2

$v_{2j} = v_2 - v_j$

$v_{2j} = -10 - 5 = -15 m/s$ towards her from opposite side

Part b)

Now in this case the speed of two balls is given with respect to Julie

so we can say

for ball 1

$v_{1j} = v_1 - v_j$

$10 = v_1 - 5$

so in ground frame speed of ball 1 is

$v_1 = 15 m/s$

Similarly for ball 2

$v_{2j} = v_2 - v_j$

$-10 = v_2 - 5$

So speed in ground frame of ball 2 is

$v_2 = - 5 m/s$

so its 5 m/s from opposite side

viva [34]

Answer:

d. intrusion

Explanation:

An intrusion is molten rock from the Earth's interior that squeezes into existing rock and cools. Folding Folding occurs when rock layers bend and buckle from Earth's internal forces.

How should the student use the data collected and the known quantities from the experiment to determine the initial total mechan

fiasKO [112]

It should be noted that the student should use K = 1/2mv² with the initial speed of the block for one trial.

<h3>Method of using the data collected.</h3>

From the complete information, the student wants to use the data collected and the known quantities from the experiment to determine the initial total mechanical energy of the block-ramp-Earth system for all trials in the experiment.

In this case, it's important to use K = 1/2mv² with the block's initial speed for one trial due to the fact that the initial speed is the same in all the trials.

What is the horse power of an electric motor which can do by 1250 joule of work in 5 seconds

Ksju [112]

1250 J in 5 sec= 250 Joule(s) per second (1250/5 0

250 Joules per second = 250 Watts ( 1J/s = 1 Watt per definition)

250 Watts output = 250/0.65 efficiency = 384 Watts input

1 Horsepower = 732 Watts

Motors 1 Horsepower and under are made in certain step sizes like

3/4 , 1/2 , 1/3, 1/4, 1/16 1/20 of a Horsepower.

3/4 Horsepower is 549 Watts

1/2 Horsepower is 366 Watts

so you need to 3/4 horsepower motor to achieve 1250 J of work in 5 seconds.

Jill applies a force of 250 N to a machine. The machine applies a force of 25 N to an object. What is the mechanical advantage o

Vinvika [58]

Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output load to the input load. The mechanical advantage of the machine will be 0.1.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system,

It is used to obtain the efficiency of forces in levers and pulleys. It is an effective way of amplifying the force in simple machines like levers.

The theoretical mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of the force responsible for the useful work in the system to the applied force.

Given

applied force = 250 N

Output force = 25

Mechanical advantage = work output / work input

$\rm{Mechanical advantage}=\frac{F_O}{F_I}$
