Answer:

The answer is C)

Explanation:

This is because, when one person exerts more force, the forces become unbalanced. The person pushing with more force is overriding the person with less force, resulting in the door moving in the direction the person pushing with more force.

I hope this helps!

The correct answer is
<span>c. one person exerts more force than the other so that the forces are unbalanced.

In fact, the door is initially at rest. In order to move the door, a net force different from zero should be applied, according to Newton's second law:
</span> $\sum F = ma$
<span>where the term on the left is the resultant of the forces acting on the door, m is the door mass and a its acceleration.

In order to move the door, the acceleration must be different from zero. But this means that the resultant of the forces acting on it must be different from zero: this is possible only if the forces applied by the two persons are unbalanced, i.e. one person exerts more force than the other.</span>

A force of 350N is applied to a body. If the work done is 40kJ, what is the distance through which the body moved?

Studentka2010 [4]

The distance covered by the body is 114.3 m

Explanation:

The work done by a force exerted on an object is given by

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

For the object in this problem, we have

F = 350 N is the force applied

$W=40 kJ = 40,000 J$ is the work done

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ if we assume that the force is applied parallel to the motion of the object

Solving for d, we find the distance covered by the object:

$d=\frac{W}{F cos \theta}=\frac{40,000}{(350)(cos 0)}=114.3 m$

The passengers are facing forward in the direction that the train is moving. What will happen to the passengers sitting on a tra

marysya [2.9K]

Passengers which are facing forward in the direction that train is moving, their bodies will move forward in application of sudden stop of train.

<h3>What is force of inertia?</h3>

Force of inertia is the force which acts in the opposite direction of the force of acceleration acting on the body.

Given infroamtion-

The passengers are facing forward in the direction that the train is moving.

The train comes to a sudden stop.

Lets see what happens step wise-

Here, the train in moving in the forward direction and the passengers are also facing forward in the direction that the train is moving.

Now the train comes to a sudden stop. By this sudden stop the train stops suddenly but all the object including the passengers is still travelling forward due to the inertia force.

Thus all the passenger will tend to move in the direction as they are still travelling.

Hence, passengers which are facing forward in the direction that train is moving, their bodies will move forward in application of sudden stop of train.

Why is weathering slow in cold, dry places?

Alexxandr [17]

Rate of weathering depends on temperature and moisture. Cold dry places have less water to weather things

What law states force is dependent on the mass and acceleration of an object

UNO [17]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion can be stated

The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

in another form,

Force = mass * acceleration

What body systems help these cells get the energy they need?

MakcuM [25]

The body systems that help cells get the energy they need are the digestive system and circulatory system. The first system is the digestive system because when you eat food, your body breaks it down using the stomach and other different parts of the digestive system. The next one is the circulatory system because your blood carries the nutrients you acquired from food you digested to the cells throughout your body.
