Is a force necessary to keep an object in motion?

Well according to Newton’s first law of motion, a body will remain in the state of rest or linear motion provided that an *external force* has been applied. So no, a force doesn’t need to keep a body to remain in linear motion, because F=ma, during uniform linear motion velocity is constant, hence acceleration is zero, so F=0

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

6666.67 Newtons

Explanation:

The formula F=ma (force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration) can be used to calculate the answer to this question.

In this case:

  • mass= 0.1mg= 1*10^-7 kg
  • velocity= 4.00*10^3 m/s
  • time= 6.00*10^-8 s

Using velocity and time, acceleration can be calculated as:

  • a= 6.667*10^10 m/s²

Substituting these values into the formula F=ma, the answer is:

  • F= (1*10^-7)kg * (6.667*10^10) m/s²
  • F= 6666.67 Newtons of force

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

a.) the speed at the bottom is greater for the steeperhill

Explanation:

since the energy at the bottom of the steeper hilis greater

mgh =\frac{1}{mv^2}

As we can see from above that v is higher when h ishigher.

What are the main differences between the manual, oscillate and pulse functions?
gladu [14]

Answer:

Manuel function can be used when we move it. Oscillate function automatically moves on its own. The pulse function mimics the pulse of a heart rate and can only be used by pushing the button.

PLS HELP QUICK!!!!!!<br> Make a claim about how light moves through different materials
WINSTONCH [101]

Light, being both a wave and a particle, displays many properties similar to both of them. Light, like waves, travels at different speeds through mediums because they provide any variable amount of resistance. Even air resists light to a degree, and light speed through air is slower than light speed in a vacuum.
