You push really hard against a round rock, but you cannot make it roll. Which statement best explains why you cannot move the ro

ck
Physics
1 answer:
cluponka [151]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

b

Explanation:

a Gravity pulls the rock toward the center of Earth.

b The forces between you and the rock are balanced.

c The force of your push is greater than the opposing force.

d There is no friction to help you move the object.

The correct answer would be that <u>the forces between you and the rock are balanced.</u>

<em>In order to get the rock rolling, both the frictional force between the rock and the surface on which it stands as well as the gravitational force acting on its mass must be exceeded. If the applied force balances these forces or falls short, the rock will not move.</em>

The correct option is b.

A car is moving at 20 m/s. The driver steps on the gas pedal and accelerates the car for 4 seconds at an acceleration of 4 m/s2.
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The final velocity of the car is 36 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 20 m/s

time of the car acceleration, t = 4 s

acceleration of the car, a = 4 m/s²

the final velocity of the car is calculated as;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 20 + (4 x 4)

v = 36 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 36 m/s.

Consider the potential energy diagram shown below. This graph shows the chemical potential energy in a reaction system over time
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

A. Endothermic reaction.

B. +150KJ.

C. 250KJ.

Explanation:

A. The graph represents endothermic reaction because the heat of the product is higher than the heat of the reactant.

B. Determination of the enthalpy change, ΔH for the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:

Heat of reactant (Hr) = 50KJ

Heat of product (Hp) = 200KJ

Enthalphy change (ΔH) =..?

Enthalphy change = Heat of product – Heat of reactant.

ΔH = Hp – Hr

ΔH = 200 – 50

ΔH = +150KJ

Therefore, the enthalphy change for the reaction is +150KJ

C. The activation energy for the reaction is the energy at the peak of the diagram.

From the diagram, the activation energy is 250KJ.

A skier is skiing down a slope on the mountain.
uysha [10]

The mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy is lost to friction.

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The mechanical energy is defined as the energy of a body which it achieves by virtue of its position and velocity. The mechanical energy are of two types - potential energy and kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the body which it achieves by means of its relative position and is directly proportional to the height of the body from its relative plane. Whereas the kinetic energy of the body is achieved by virtue of its velocity and is directly proportional to the square of velocity of the body.

As the mountaineer is skiing down the slope of a mountain, the potential energy of the person is gradually changing into his kinetic energy. Had it been in an ideal situation, the potential energy lost would have been just equal to the kinetic energy gained by the person. But there's friction which opposes the speed of the body and reduces the velocity. Thus the kinetic energy will be lost to some extent and the energy won't be conserved.
