I’d think the answer would be C. i’m just kinda guessing but my thought process is this (as simply as i can put it because physics is confusing):

so for example say you throw a ball across a flat surface. inertia is what keeps the ball rolling straight in a line, so unless you were to maybe put your hand in front of the ball or something, it would just go straight forever.

this is what happens with the planets. they go in a straight line, but since there’s gravity, the planets are also being pulled towards the sun. so gravity and inertia are why the planets orbit in the circle pattern they do. so when we remove inertia, we’re removing the state in which the planets keep going straight while being pulled towards a center point (the sun). this causes gravity to be the only factor in the planets orbiting. so that being said, the planets would just be pulled towards the sun. :)

Many people never even taste butter, instead use oleo or margerine...fake stuff. Real butter is the best topping for popcorn! And crab legs are good dipped in it, as well as hot corn on the cobb. This is how I eat butter.

Why do mirrors form inverted images?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The image is real light rays actually focus at the image location). As the object moves towards the mirror the image location moves further away from the mirror and the image size grows (but the image is still inverted).

Which of the following best describes a chemical equation that demonstrates the law of conservation of matter?
LiRa [457]
B, since it is the only one that actually conserves matter for certain. In each of the others, matter could still be imbalanced, since for A, for example, it could be 5 Carbons on the right and 5 Chlorines on the left, and that would not balance.

An electron moves with velocity v⃗ =(5.9i−6.4j)×104m/s in a magnetic field B⃗ =(−0.63i+0.65j)T. Determine the z-component of the
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on the electron = q ( v x B )

q = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

v = (5.9i−6.4j)×10⁴

B = (−0.63i+0.65j)

v x B = (5.9i−6.4j)×10⁴  x (−0.63i+0.65j)

= (3.835  - 4.032 ) x 10⁴ k

= - 1970 k

Force on the electron = q ( v x B )

= - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x -1970 k

= 3.152 x 10⁻¹⁶ k

z-component of the force on the electron

Fz = 3.152 x 10⁻¹⁶ N
