Answer: A. a basketball being shot toward the basket
Explanation: The definition of projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. So, the basketball is the object being thrown and the person throwing the ball is aiming it to go into the basket making that the path of trajectory. Hope that makes sense and helps!
This would be force. Acceleration is increasing the speed in an object and velocity is how fast an object is going. Also, inertia basically says that an object will stay at rest or in motion unless an outside force acts on it. So, for example, a ball will stay in the air unless gravity acts on it and pulls it down. By definition, force is any action, unopposed (or by itself without any other forces that would do the opposite) will change the motion of an object, so this definitely makes the most sense for the question. Hope this helps!
The net force on the hanging object is zero. If it were not zero, then the object would be accelerating in some direction.
The correct answer to go in the blank would be A) The particles are moving faster.
Answer:
The difference between a physical reaction and a chemical reaction is composition. In a chemical reaction, there is a change in the composition of the substances in question; in a physical change there is a difference in the appearance, smell, or simple display of a sample of matter without a change in composition. Although we call them physical "reactions," no reaction is actually occurring. In order for a reaction to take place, there must be a change in the elemental composition of the substance in question. Thus, we shall simply refer to physical "reactions" as physical changes from now on.
Explanation:
Physical changes are limited to changes that result in a difference in display without changing the composition. Some common changes (but not limited to) are:
Texture
Color
Temperature
Shape
Change of State (Boiling Point and Melting Point are significant factors in determining this change.)
Physical properties include many other aspects of a substance. The following are (but not limited to) physical properties.
Luster
Malleability
Ability to be drawn into a thin wire
Density
Viscosity
Solubility
Mass
Volume
