Answer:

b. Force is directly proportional to acceleration and mass. Objects with bigger mass and higher acceleration can produce bigger forces.

c. Forces are vectors - they always have magnitude and direction.

g. Forces of equal magnitude but in opposite directions have a zero net force and so are in a balanced state- at rest or in motion.

Explanation:

a. Forces are scalar quantities - they do not need direction.

False - forces are vector quantities, thus have both a magnitude and direction

b. Force is directly proportional to acceleration and mass. Objects with bigger mass and higher acceleration can produce bigger forces.

True - From Newton's 2nd Law \Sigma F=ma, we see that force is directly proportional with acceleration and mass.

c. Forces are vectors- they always have magnitude and direction.

True

d. Objects at rest do not have any force acting on them.

False - Counterexample: an object laying at rest on a table has both normal force and the force of gravity acting on it.

e. Gravity only acts on objects that are falling.

False - Gravity acts on any object within the general universe. For an object to experience zero gravity, it would have to be in a vacuum or an infinite distance away from all objects in space.

f. Forces always require the Agent and the Receiver to touch to take effect.

False - Counterexample: Gravity is a no-contact force

g. Forces of equal magnitude but in opposite directions have a zero net force and so are in a balanced state- at rest or in motion.

True - Forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction will cause an object to have zero net force in the respective direction, assuming there are no other forces acting on the object.

A building made with a steel structure is 565 m high on a winter day when the temperature is 0◦F. How much taller is the buildin
anyanavicka [17]

To solve this problem we apply the thermodynamic equations of linear expansion in bodies.

Mathematically the change in the length of a body is subject to the mathematical expression

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

Where,

L_0 = Initial Length

\alpha = Thermal expansion coefficient

\Delta T = Change in temperature

Since we have values in different units we proceed to transform the temperature to degrees Celsius so

0\°F \Rightarrow (0-32)*\frac{5}{9} = -17.77\°C

103\°F \Rightarrow (103-32)*(\frac{5}{9})= 39.44\°C

The coefficient of thermal expansion given is

\alpha = 1.1*10^{-5}/\°C

The initial length would be,

L_0 = 565m

Replacing we have to,

\Delta L = L_0 \alpha \Delta T

\Delta L = (565)(1.1*10^{-5})(39.44-(-17.77))

\Delta L = (565)(1.1*10^{-5})(39.44-(-17.77))

\Delta L = 0.355m

This means that the building will be 35.5cm taller

Two sound waves (wave X and wave Y) are moving through a medium at the same speed. If wave X has a greater frequency than wave Y
____ [38]

Answer:

Wave X has a shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

The relation between the speed of a wave, its wavelength and frequency is given by :

v=f\lambda

It can be seen that the relationship between the frequency and wavelength is inverse.

In this problem, it is mentioned that two sound waves (wave X and wave Y) are moving through a medium at the same speed. The frequency of wave X is greater than wave Y. Then it would mean that wave X have shorter wavelength than wave Y (due to inverse relation).

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi
mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.
