Explain newton's second law in terms of inertia?​

Physics
1 answer:
lapo4ka [179]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Newton's second law is F=ma. And since inertia is the resistance an object has against a change in velocity or force, you must push a lot harder to start moving an object, but once it starts to move, it is a lot easier, until you go to stop it.

Suppose you pour water into a container until it reaches a depth of 12 cm. Next, you carefully pour in an 8.5 cm thickness of ol
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

the pressure at the bottom is approximately 103264 Pa

Explanation:

From Pascal's law, the pressure at the bottom of the container is the pressure from the atmosphere and the columns of water and olive , therefore

Pressure at the bottom = Pressure at the surface of the liquid ( atmospheric pressure) + pressure of the column of water + pressure of the column of olive oil

since

- Pressure at the surface of the liquid = atmospheric pressure = 101325 Pa

- pressure of the column of water = density of water * gravity * level of water

= 1000 kg/m³ * 9.8 m/s² * 0.12 m = 1176 Pa

- pressure of the column of olive oil=  density of olive oil* gravity * level of olive oil = 916 kg/m³ * 9.8 m/s² * 0.085 m = 763 Pa

therefore

Pressure at the bottom = 101325 Pa + 1176 Pa + 763 Pa = 103264 Pa

density of olive oil was taken from internet sources ( we can check that is lower than the one of water, and thus it floats )

How does increasing the resistance affect the current
zepelin [54]
Ohm's law states that the electrical current (I) flowing in an circuit is proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance (R). Therefore, if the voltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change.

Two spheres having masses M and 2M and radii R and 3R, respectively, are released from rest when the distance between their cent
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation that change in gravitational potential energy of the system = change in kinetic energy of the two ball

So here we can say

-\frac{GM(2M)}{12R} + 0 = -\frac{GM(2M)}{4R} + \frac{1}{2}Mv_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

Also since there is no external force on the system of two masses so here total momentum of the two balls will remains conserved

0 = Mv_1 + 2Mv_2

v_1 = -2v_2

now we have

\frac{GM^2}{2R} - \frac{GM^2}{6R} = \frac{1}{2}M(-2v_2)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

\frac{GM^2}{3R} = Mv_2^2

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

a net force of 1,800 N is applied to a boat causing it to accelerate at 1.5 m/s^2. what is the mass of the boat?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 1200 kg</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of an object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{1800}{1.5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>1200 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

Quasar spectra often show many absorption lines that all appear to be as a result of the same electron transition (such as level
Elanso [62]

Answer: Because of different redshift of cloud.

Explanation:

We are seeing absorption lines from clouds of gas that lie between us and the quasar, and therefore each cloud has a different redshift.

A quasar's spectrum is hugely redshifted. And most astronomers think this large redshift tells us about the distance to the quasar.
