Answer:

For example, when a car travels at a constant speed, the driving force from the engine is balanced by resistive forces such as air resistance and friction in the car's moving parts. The resultant force on the car is zero.

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

The acceleration of the car is zero, and and in this case the velocity is also zero. When your car is moving at constant velocity down a street, the net force must also be zero, according to Newton's First Law.

A 12.0 cm object is 9.0 cm from a convex mirror that has a focal length of -4.5 cm. What is the distance of the image from the m

Rasek [7]

Answer:

- 3 cm

Explanation:

From the mirror formula;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u ; where f is the focal length, v is the image distance, and u is the object distance.

1/-4.5 = 1/9 + 1/v

1/v = -1/4.5 - 1/9

= -1/3

Therefore;

v = -3 cm

Hence;

Image distance is - 3cm

Neutron stars, such as the one at the center of the Crab Nebula, have about the same mass as our sun but have a much smaller dia

Crank

Answer:

Wn = 9.14 x 10¹⁷ N

Explanation:

First we need to find our mass. For this purpose we use the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

W = Weight = 675 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity on Surface of Earth = 9.8 m/s²

m = Mass = ?

Therefore,

m = (675 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

m = 68.88 kg

Now, we need to find the value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Neutron Star. For this purpose we use the following formula:

gn = (G)(Mn)/(Rn)²

where,

gn = acceleration due to gravity on surface of neutron star = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Mn = Mass of Neutron Star = Mass of Sun = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg

Rn = Radius of neutron Star = 20 km/2 = 10 km = 10000 m

Therefore,

gn = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(1.99 x 10³⁰ kg)/(10000)

gn = 13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²

Now, my weight on neutron star will be:

Wn = m(gn)

Wn = (68.88)(13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²)

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turn

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

e. Not enough information to determine

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question with my solution afterwards;

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turntable (initially at rest) begins to rotate with its rate of rotation constantly increasing.

What is the first event that will occur?(Assume non-zero frictional force and the same coefficients of friction for both bugs.)

a. The ladybug begins to slide

b. The gentleman bug begins to slide

c. Both bugs begin to slide at the same time

d. Nothing ever happens

e. Not enough information to determine

The centripetal force acting on a rotating body or bugs can be written as,

$F=mrw^2$

$m=$ mass of the corresponding bugs

$r=$ corresponding radial distance of each bug

$w=$ angular speed of the turntable

The centripetal force tries to slide the bugs in an outward direction and it is directly proportional to the products of its mass and radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable

$F$ ∝ $mr$

Since the radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable for each bug is given, but the mass is not given, the given information is therefore not enough to determine which bugs will slide first.

Option "e" is correct.
