In the Tough Man Competition, very strong men are challenged to push or pull extremely large and heavy objects to test their str

ength. In
one such challenge, they were asked to push one of two rail cars, an engine car and a box car. The data tables show one man's results.
Look over the data table and answer the questions below.

Based on the Newton's laws of motion, the motion of an object is due to an unbalanced net force.

<h3>What is Force?</h3>

A force is a push or pull effect which causes a change in the motion or state of an object.

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is to the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object.

Thus, motion occurs when there is greater net force acting on an object.

From the diagram shown above, when a force of 3000 N is applied by the man, the boxcar does not move because the force applied by the man is less than the force on the boxcar.

The box car will move if a force greater than that on the boxcar were applied to it.

According to Newton's third law of motion, for every force, there is an equal but oppositely acting reactionary force, therefore, the net force on the boxcar is 0 N.

Therefore, the motion of an object is due to an unbalanced net force.

1. ASSERTION AND REASONING QUESTIONS:
frozen [14]

Answer:

1) B

2) A

3) A

4) D

Explanation:

An atom is neutral because it contains an equal number of protons and electrons. Though the atom actually contains neutrons, this reason does not explain the electrical neutrality of the atom.

The L shell actually contains eight electrons because the maximum number of electrons accommodated in each shell is given by 2n^2 where n is the principal quantum number. Since the L-shell corresponds to n=2 then the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

The valency of atoms is determined by the number of electrons in the outermost shell of the atom. Remember that atoms having a filed valence shell(eight electrons in the outermost shell) have a valency of zero. Hence the noble gases possess a zero valency. Thus the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Nitrogen forms its ion by electron gain and not by electron loss because nitrogen forms an anion. This anion is formed by a gain of three electrons. The assertion is false but the reason is true.

Muscle cells are typically high in the number of mitochondria. Why do you think this is the case?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer: it's because they need to provide a lot of energy.

Explanation: fat cells have many mitochondria because they store a lot of energy. Muscle cells have many mitochondria, which allows them to respond quickly to the need for doing work.
