Answer:
due to the inertia of motion, the fan continues to move for some time even after switching it off.
Answer:
Speed of waves on the rope is 21 m/s
Explanation:
Length of the rope (l) = 5.0 m
Mass of the rope (m) = 0.52 kg
Tension in the rope (T) = 46 N
Formula of speed of waves on the rope:
= Mass per unit length of the rope (m/l)
By substituting the values in the formula we get:
Speed of waves on the rope (v) = 21 m/s
Answer:
Air resistance slows down the ball
In space, there would be no air resistance
Explanation:
When an object moves through the air, there is a force acting in the opposite direction to the motion of the ball: this force is called air resistance.
Air resistance is due to the friction between the molecules of air and the molecules at the surface of the object - because of this frictional force, the object is slows down in its motion and loses some energy (which is converted into thermal energy of the surrounding air).
There is also the force of gravity (downward) that acts on the ball: however, this force does not slows down the ball in its motion, instead it accelerates it towards the ground.
In space, however, there is no air and no gravity. This means that there are no forces acting on the ball: therefore, the ball will not be slowed down, and therefore will continue its motion forever, at constant velocity, according to Newton's first law:
<em>An object at rest (or in motion) will stay at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) when the net external force acting on it is zero</em>
Answer:
The answer is the 3rd option!
