Take the object's starting direction of motion to be the positive direction, so that a stopping force acts in the opposite direction. By Newton's second law, the object undergoes an acceleration <em>a</em> such that
-15 N = (20 kg) <em>a</em>
Solve for <em>a</em> :
<em>a</em> = - (15 N) / (20 kg) = -0.75 m/s²
The object's velocity <em>v</em> at time <em>t</em> is then given by
<em>v</em> = 3 m/s + (-0.75 m/s²) <em>t</em>
so the time it takes for the object to slow to a rest is
0 = 3 m/s + (-0.75 m/s²) <em>t</em>
<em>t</em> = (3 m/s) / (0.75 m/s²) = 4.0 s

Answer:
An electric current flows in a loop,powering bulbs or other electric COMPONENTS. The loop is an electric circuit. A circuit is made up of various components linked together by wires. The current is driven around the circuit by a power source, such as a BATTERY.
Voltage: is the energy given to each unit of charge that flows in a circuit
Current: is the amount of electric charge flowing past a point in a circuit each second
Wattage: is the amount of electrical energy a circuit uses each second
Answer:
For the distance range 50 to 500 km, the S-waves travel about 3.45 km/s and the P-waves around 8 km/s.

a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. <u>This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.</u>
b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground <u>because of gravitational attraction force of earth</u>.
c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes <u>because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.</u>
d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide <u>because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.</u>
e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits <u>so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.</u>
f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base <u>so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding</u>.
