Two experiments are performed on an object to determine how much the object resists a change in its state of motion while at res

t and while in motion. In the first experiment, the object is pushed with a constant known force along a horizontal surface. There is negligible friction between the surface and the object. A motion sensor is used to measure the speed of the object as it is pushed. In a second experiment, the object is tied to a string and pulled upward with a constant known force, and a motion sensor is used to measure the speed of the object as it is pulled upward. The student uses the data collected from the motion sensor to determine the mass of the object in both experiments.

Answer:

In the first experiment, the mass is inertial mass and in the second experiment, the mass is a gravitational mass.

Explanation:

It is given that a student performs two types of experiment to see how change in its resistance while in the state of motion and in rest.

In the first experiment, an object is pushed with a force against a horizontal surface and the speed is measured using a sensor. Here, work is done against the inertia of the object as it is pushed from rest. So the mass is inertial mass.

In the second experiment, an object is pushed or thrown upwards with a force and speed is measured. Here, the mass is gravitational mass as the work done in the second experiment is against the gravity or against the weight of the object.

Two different wave groups with the same height travel together in the same direction. The wavelength of one group is twice as lo
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

A combined wave of extra height will produce every other wave.

Explanation:

One wave Crest can catch up to another wave Crest if the group of waves are from different places.

Here the two group of waves have different wavelength but travelling together in the same direction so when they combine,they will produce every other wave.

How does the see temperature affect hurricane formation?
insens350 [35]
The higher the sea surface temperature, the faster the warm, moist air rises into the atmosphere. This updraft creates a donut shaped vortex that is rising in the middle and going downward on the sides. The more moisture in the air (humidity), the stronger the vortex will become as the moisture rises through convective currents, cools, and falls through convective currents. This eventually causes rotation of the storm mass and you get a tropical cyclone. So, the high sea surface temperatures and humidity are actually the engine that forms a hurricane and causes it to increase in strength.

High level horizontal winds can prevent a hurricane from forming. These are called shear winds and they literally blow the top of the cyclone off, preventing it from forming properly.

If the results of a study do not support a hypothesis, it means that experiment failed
butalik [34]
No that is incorrect. If the results do not support the hypothesis than the hypothesis could have been incorrect. Or there is a possibility that the experiment was not done properly. A hypothesis is an educated guess for the results of the experiment.
