Answer:

It can cause an object to accelerate.

It can cause an object to stop moving.

It can cause an object to start moving.

It can cause an object to change directions.

Explanation:

When the velocity of an object is increased in the same direction, the object is said to have positive acceleration. If it increases its velocity in a direction that is opposite to the original direction, it is negative acceleration.

When an object that's already moving is made to stop, it is said to have decelerated. Deceleration is negative acceleration.

When an object at rest is made to move by applying a force, it is said to have accelerated to some final velocity, during its motion for some duration.

An object at rest will remain at rest is said to have no net force acting on it.

Which of the following are transferred or shared when two atoms react chemically? *

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

One of the basic principles of chemistry is the electrostatic attraction between atoms or compounds. Electrons are on the outside of an atoms and that's where the charges come from and the interaction between those charges is what happens during a chemical bond. Therefore the answer would be electrons.

A big lump of meat of mass 5Kg is hung from a spring balance in an elevator. Find the reading of the balance of (I) the elevator

Mrrafil [7]

The reading of the balance if ,

I ) If the elevator is moving with a steady speed = 50 N

II ) If the elevator is moving upwards with acceleration of 0.2 m / s² = 51 N

T = m g + m a

T = Force

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity

a = Acceleration

m = 5 kg

g = 10 m / s²

I ) If the elevator is moving with a steady speed,

At steady speed, a = 0

T = ( 5 * 10 ) + ( 5 * 0 )

T = 50 N

II ) If the elevator is moving upwards with acceleration of 0.2 m / s²,

a = 0.2 m / s²

T = ( 5 * 10 ) + ( 5 * 0.2 )

T = 50 + 1

T = 51 N

Therefore, the reading of the balance if ,

I ) If the elevator is moving with a steady speed = 50 N

II ) If the elevator is moving upwards with acceleration of 0.2 m / s² = 51 N

Why would an egg break immediately when it hits the ground?

Elza [17]

As an egg falls towards the floor, it begins to travel faster and faster. When it slams into the floor, the egg is stopped almost immediately. This force of the floor against the eggshell is too large, so it breaks.

flipper (the dolphin) is out in the open ocean hunting tuna avec. he emits his pulse at 22khz and .42 seconds later he hears it

marusya05 [52]

First we need to find the speed of the dolphin sound wave in the water. We can use the following relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave:
$v=\lambda f$
where
v is the wave speed
$\lambda$ its wavelength
f its frequency
Using $\lambda = 2 cm = 0.02 m$ and $f=22 kHz = 22000 Hz$ , we get
$v=(0.02 m)(22000 Hz)=440 m/s$

We know that the dolphin sound wave takes t=0.42 s to travel to the tuna and back to the dolphin. If we call L the distance between the tuna and the dolphin, the sound wave covers a distance of S=2 L in a time t=0.42 s, so we can write the basic relationship between space, time and velocity for a uniform motion as:
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{2L}{t}$
and since we know both v and t, we can find the distance L between the dolphin and the tuna:
$L= \frac{vt}{2}= \frac{(440 m/s)(0.42 s)}{2}=92.4 m$
