1 answer:
ANTONII [103]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 4

Explanation: because 0s aren’t significant and after the decimal point, there was to be a value greater than 0 than the rest are sig figs.

A 1000-kg car moving at 10 m/s brakes to a stop in 5 s. the average braking force is
Marina86 [1]
To calcculate the braking force of the car moving, we use Newton's second law of motion which relates the acceleration and the force of an object moving. The force of an object moving is directly proportional to its acceleration and the proportionality constant is the mass of the object. It is expressed as:

Force = ma

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving object. We calculate acceleration from the velocity and the time given above.

a = (10 m/s) / 5 s = 2 m/s^2

So,
Force = ma
Force = 1000 kg ( 2 m/s^2 )
Force = 2000 kg m/s^2 or 2000 N

PLZ HELP!!! Detailed PLZ!
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Potential Energy = 294J, Kinetic Engergy = 48.02J

Explanation:

We have these formulas:

Potential Energy = mass * gravitational force * height (m) = 1 * 9.8 * 30 = 294(J)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2 = 1/2 * 1 * 9.8^2 = 48.02 (J)

As the rock falling at an acceleration of 9.8m/s^2 which means for each second, the rock increases 9.8m/s. I think we are missing time to find the instantaneous velocity, the formula is (initial displacement - final displacement)/ (initial time - final time) which will directly give the final answer for you.

State two reasons why the rod is not in equilibrium​
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

For equilibrium the net torque on the rod must be zero. So the 100N forces should on either side of the pivot point i.e. one on the left and one the right, and in same direction.

During a camping trip, Sierra collected dry branches and broke them into smaller pieces. She then placed the sticks in a fire pi
viktelen [127]
Physical changes: breaking sticks, boiling the water
chemical changes: lighting the fire
(Breaking the wood does not change the substance of the wood , therefore it's a physical change. Water changing between solid, liquid, and gas form is always a physical change.)
