What is newton's 3rd law of physics

1 answer:

ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

A golf ball stays on the tee until the golf club hits it. Which of the following principles best describes why this occurs? Grou

givi [52]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object continues to stay in its state of rest, or of uniform motion, until acted upon by an external force.

So in the case of the golf ball here, the ball stays in its state of rest, on the tee, until the golf club hits it, i.e. , applies an external force on it.

Hence we can say that Newton's First Law of Motion is the principle which is most suitable for explaining this phenomenon.

A capacitor in a single-loop RC circuit is charged to 85% of its final potential difference in 2.4 s. What is the time constant

atroni [7]

Answer:

The time constant is $\tau = 1.265 s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

the time take to charge is $t = 2.4 \ s$

The mathematically representation for voltage potential of a capacitor at different time is

$V = V_o - e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant

$V_o$ is the potential of the capacitor when it is full

So the capacitor potential will be 100% when it is full thus $V_o =$ 100% = 1

and from the question we are told that the at the given time the potential of the capacitor is 85% = 0.85 of its final potential so

V = 0.85

Hence

$0.85 = 1 - e^{-\frac{2.4}{\tau } }$

$- {\frac{2.4}{\tau } } = ln0.15$

$\tau = 1.265 s$

How to use kinetic energy to calculate velocity

BartSMP [9]

As we know the formula of kinetic energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

here given that

KE = 150,000 J

mass = 120 kg

we can use this to find speed

$150,000 = \frac{1}{2} * 120 * v^2$

$v^2 = 2500$

$v = 50 m/s$

So speed of above object is 50 m/s
