According to Aristotle, how fast do heavy objects fall compared to light objects?

4 0

Answer:

Hey

Your answer would be D (Aristotle stated that heavy objects fall faster than light objects). He thought be comparing a feather falling to a rock falling that you could see that heavier objects fall faster than light ones. of course now we know that all objects fall at the same speed and that weight does not affect that. only air drag affects how fast objects fall.

If a 5.5 kg object experiences 15 N of force for .15 seconds what is the speed change
Nady [450]

The speed change : Δv = 0.41 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 5.5 kg

Force = 15 N

time = 0.15 s

Required

the speed change

Solution

Newton 2nd's law

Impulse and momentum

F = m.a

F = m . Δv/t

F.t = m.Δv

Input the value :

15 N x 0.15 s = 5.5 kg x Δv

Δv = 0.41 m/s

a runner covers the last straigjt stretch of a race in 4 s. during that time, he speeds up from 5m/s to 9m/s.
PtichkaEL [24]

During that final period of time,
his acceleration is
                                (9 m/s - 5 m/s) / (4 sec) = 1 m/s² .

I'm not really sure how to go about creating the equation, can anyone help me?
AlexFokin [52]
The displacement vector (SI units) is
\vec{r} =At\hat{i}+A[t^{3}-6t^{2}]\hat{j}

The speed is a scalar quantity. Its magnitude is
v= \sqrt{A^{2}t^{2}+A^{2}(t^{3}-6t^{2})^{2}} \\ v=A \sqrt{t^{2}+t^{6}-12t^{5}+36t^{4}} \\ v=At \sqrt{t^{4}-12t^{3}+36t^{2}+1}

Answer: At√(t⁴ - 12t³ + 36t² + 1)

How is heat transfer involved in the movement of tectonic plates?
Simora [160]

Mantle convection

Explanation:

The driver of moving plates is the mantle convection.

Convection is a heat transfer process that involves the movement of fluids from one place to another.

How does convection occur in the mantle?

  • Part of the mantle known as the asthenosphere is a hot liquid. It moves slowly and does not readily flow.
  • Over riding the asthenosphere is the brittle lithosphere made up of the upper mantle and the entirety of the crust.
  • The asthenosphere is at a higher temperature compared to the lithosphere on top.
  • In order to achieve stability and thermal equilibrium, the asthenosphere rises to the surface whereas the dense and cold lithosphere sinks down.
  • This way a convective cell is set up.
  • Hot materials rises to the surface because they are light whereas cold materials on the surface sinks into the asthenosphere.
  • Through this the plates moves.
