What is the relationship between force, mass, and motion?

1 answer:

Answer: If an object is accelerating, then Force = Mass x Acceleration. If it is moving at a constant speed, then Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mass x velocity squared but in this case, there is no force acting on the object. Perhaps this will help understand the relationship between force and mass. Force is anything that acts on an object, from a person pushing on something to gravity holding the Earth in orbit around the Sun, to cause it to change speed or direction. If there is no change in speed or direction, then no force is acting on it. This relates to mass in the following way. THE GREATER THE MASS, THE GREATER THE FORCE NEEDED TO MAKE THAT MASS CHANGE SPEED OR DIRECTION. Think of it like this; what takes more force to push up a hill, a car, or a bicycle. The bicycle has less mass and therefore requires less force to push it.

Answer:

Earthquakes

Explanation:

This would happen because we have devices such as seismographs to record the motion of the ground during an earthquake. Without that, we wouldn't know how big the earthquake is and how to prepare for survival.

Providing immunity by injecting the body with a weakened form a pathogen is known as

blagie [28]

Answer:

vaccination

Explanation:

The vaccination has been one of the most revolutionary inventions in the medical field. This invention helped protect people from numerous diseases, some being totally neutralized, while some having only minor effects on the human body. The vaccination basically is a way of enhancing the immune system of the body by injecting in it a weakened form of the pathogen. In this way, the weakened form of the pathogen is not capable to harm the body, and the body is not fighting against it, but instead the pathogen becomes part of the body and its defense mechanism, so when the pathogen strikes, the body has a counter attack and defeats it.

4. Which of the following statements best describes how proteins and enzymes move within a cell?

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The movement of proteins and enzymes within a cell is facilitated by intracellular receptors.

Explanation:

Proteins and enzymes (which also are proteins) move inside the cell through intracellular receptors. These receptors are proteins capable of binding other molecules such as proteins and hormones in order to transport them to different cellular locations. Thus, intracellular receptors are key players in signaling pathways that trigger signaling events to regulate a particular function, for example, activating gene expression by transporting proteins to the nucleus.
