Answer:

Explanation:

Now

Look at it this way. This box is in equilibrium... Meaning forces around balanced out.

Now...

The Earth's pull on it is 98N

What Minimum external forces is needed to pick this up....

Now... The Minimum Force is 98N

Why?

Since This Box is under the influence of gravity...

Gravity is acting as a resistance

If you apply a force less than 98N... Let's say 50N on this box... It won't budge because your applied force is less than the resisting force on it(98N).

So We need a force ≥98. So the least force is 98N. Nothing below this will move the Box

Answer 98N.

Put the following words in order from smallest to largest: atoms, matter, elements
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Matter, atoms, elements.

Explanation:

Matter is just a name for anything that has mass and takes up space. Therefore, atoms are larger than matter. Atoms are the smallest bits of an element that <em>are</em><em> </em><em>still</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>element</em>, so, elements would be bigger than the atoms that come together to create them!

Hope this helps!

A football is kicked 18m/s at 20 degrees. what is the acceleration rate in the horizontal direction
fomenos

If we ignore air resistance, as we always do,
there is no horizontal acceleration.

Gravity acts only in the vertical direction, and
no other forces act on the ball after the punt.
