Answer:

Speed is the time rate at which an object is moving along a path, while velocity is the rate and direction of an object's movement. Put another way, speed is a scalar value, while velocity is a vector.

How much work is needed to move an object from one position to another when both positions are located the same distance from th
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

<em>The product of the object's weight and the horizontal distance between the two positions.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and the distance through which this force is moved. The distance moved can be vertical, or horizontal. For two bodies located the same distance from the center of the earth, the work done will be the product of the weight of the product and the horizontal distance between the two positions. <em>If the vertical work is needed, then the work is zero, since there is no height gradient between them</em>.

An object is moving in a straight line at constant speed. A resultant torce begins to act upon
alekssr [168]

Answer: The velocity magnitude or the velocity direction chages.

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a system moved in same direction and is also directly proportional to the external force which acts on it while inversely proportional to the mass. The formula is: a = F/m

Based on the question, since the object obtains acceleration, then it can be infered that there will be changes in the velocity magnitude or the direction as a result of the motion.

In a popular classroom demonstration, a cotton ball is placed in the bottom of a strong test tube. A plunger fits inside the tub
mario62 [17]

Answer:

An increase in air temperature because of its compression.

Explanation:

The Gay-Lussac's Law states that a gas pressure is directly proportional to its temperature in an enclosed system to constant volume.  

P = kT  

<em>where P: is the gas pressure, T: is the gas temperature and k: is a constant.</em>

Therefore, due to Gay-Lussac's Law, when the plunger is pushed down very rapidly, the pressure of the air increase, which leads to its temperature increase. That is why cotton flashes and burns.      

I hope it helps you!

Consider a large spring, hanging vertically, with spring constant k = 3220 N/m. If the spring is stretched 25.0 cm from equilibr
Olegator [25]

Answer:

m = 82.1 kg

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Hook's law that states that the force exerted by a spring is proportional to the displacement

        Fe = -k x

Let's use Newton's second law to establish equilibrium, the elastic force up and the body weight down

       Fe - W = 0

       Fe = W = mg

       k x = m g

       m = k x / g

Let's reduce the distance to SI units

       x = 25 cm (1 m / 100cm) = 0.250 m

      m = 3220 0.250 /9.8

      m = 82.1 kg

1. Cam Newton can sprint 40 meters in 5.79 seconds! How fast can he run?
Vesnalui [34]

This is a Physics question where we need to figure out how many meters Cam can run per second. To figure this out we divide the distance by the change in time.

40/5.79 = 6.9 meters per second approximately.
