Answer:

An object at rest stays at rest as long as unbalanced forces act on it.

Explanation:

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

The inertia of a physical object such as a truck is greatly dependent or influenced by its mass; the higher the quantity of matter in a truck, the greater will be its tendency to continuously remain at rest.

Hence, the situation which is contrary to Newton’s first law of motion is that, an object at rest stays at rest as long as unbalanced forces act on it.

According to Newton’s first law of motion, an object at rest stays at rest as long as unbalanced forces do not act on it.

How does an electromagnet become permanent
love history [14]
<span>A moving electrical charge produces a magnetic field and a moving magnetic field produces an electrical field. An electromagnet works by coiling a bunch of wire and spinning a couple of magnets around that wire at high speeds. When this occurs the magnets induce an electric current in the wire and hence the electricity production. Once the magnets stop spinning, the induced electrical field dissipates and the current stops flowing through the wire.

olasank [31]

Answer:

hello your question lacks some data and required diagram

G = 77 GPa,  т all = 80 MPa

answer : required diameter = 252.65 * 10-^3 m

Explanation:

Given data :

force ( P )  = 660 -N force

displacement = 15 mm

G = 77 GPa

т all = 80 MPa

i) Determine the required diameter of shaft BC

considering the vertical displacement ( looking at handle DC from free body diagram )

D' = 0.3 sin∅  ,   where D = 0.015

hence ∅ = 2.8659°

calculate the torque acting at angle ∅  of  CD on the shaft BC

Torque = 660 * 0.3 cos∅

             = 660 * 0.3 * cos 2.8659 = 198 * -0.9622 = 190.5156 N

hello attached is the remaining part of the solution

-- pick a planet from the table

-- take it's mass and radius from the table, and plug them into the big ugly formula above the table

-- do the arithmetic with your pencil or your calculator. The answer is the acceleration of gravity on the planet you picked. Write it down so you don't lose it.

-- do the same for the other 3 planets in the table
