Answer:

Examples of non-inertial reference frames

One clearcut example of an inertial reference frame is an isolated spaceship, far, far away from the Earth, the Sun, the Milky Way Galaxy, and all other massive objects. Fred places a blue ball into a claw at the left end of the ship, and red ball into a claw at the right end of the ship.

Explanation:

Let us say that you are in a car at a stop light. The car is standing still. The light turns green, and the car accelerates forward. While undergoing this acceleration, the car is a non-inertial frame of reference.

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects Mass Force

1 10 kg 4 N

2 100 grams 20 N

3 10 grams 4 N

4 1 kg 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

$a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 2,

$a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 3,

$a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of object 4,

$a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2$

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is $400\ m/s^2$ and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).

A boat having stones floats in water. If stones are unloaded in water, what will happen to the level of water?

Pani-rosa [81]

Explanation:

If the stones are unloaded from the boat, the weight of the boat will decrease. Therefore, the volume of the water displaced by the boat will also decrease. Due to this, the volume of the boat immersed in the water decreases. Hence, the level of the water around the boat will decrease.
