Question 3 of 10
Which law is stated below?
The acceleration of an object is proportional to the force applied to it and
inversely proportional to its mass.
A. The law of inertia
B. Newton's first law
C. Newton's third law
D. Newton's second law

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Newton's second law

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that force of an object is a product of its mass and its acceleration.

Mathematically, F= ma where  m is mass and a is acceleration

So from the statement above : The acceleration of an object is proportional to the force applied to it and  inversely proportional to its mass , it can be seen from the formula variation as;

F= ma -----making a the subject of the formula

a= F/ m

a= 1/m * F --------- a  is inversely related to m  as you can see from 1/m but directly related to F  hence;

Increase in mass with the same force applied causes the body to accelerate slower where as when force increases, the body accelerates faster.

PROBLEM:

You have been assigned the position of Environmental Engineer for one of several local
robotics manufacturers whose water discharges flow into a lake in a flourishing tourist area.
Although all the robotics companies in the area are marginally profitable, they compete for
the same customers. Included in your responsibilities is the monitoring of water and air
discharges
at your plant and the periodic preparation of reports to be submitted to the Department of
Natural Resources. You have just prepared a report that indicates that the
level of pollution in the plant's water discharges slightly exceeds the legal limitations. Your
boss, the Plant Manager, says you should regard the excess as a mere
"technicality," and he asks you to "adjust" the data so that the plant appears to be in
compliance. He says that the slight excess is not going to endanger human or fish
life any more than if the plant were in compliance. On the other hand, he says, solving the
problem would require a very heavy investment in new equipment. He
explains, "We can't afford new equipment. It might even cost a few jobs. It will set us
behind our competitors. Besides the bad publicity we'd get, it might scare off
some of the tourist industry, making it worse for everybody."

According to the law of conservation of energy, mechanical energy can be changed to heat energy.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

                     " law of conservation of energy"

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form of energy into another.This mean that a system always has a same account of a energy,unless it is added from the outside.This is particularly confusing in the case of non conversation forces,where energy is converted from ,mechanical energy into thermal energy.but the overall energy does remain the same.The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.

The amount of energy in any system than it is determined by the following equation.

Ut=Ui +W+Q

Ut is the total internal energy of a system.Ui is the initial internal energy of a system.W is the work done by or on the system.Q is the heat added to or removed by the system.

It is also possible to determined the change in internal energy of the system using the equation.

ΔU=W+Q

The mechanical energy of a system increases provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.The energy would transform to kinetic energy when the speed is increasing.Te mechanical energy of a system remain constant provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.

The law of conversation of energy which say that in a closed system total energy is conserved that is it constant.

A 120 Ω resistor, a 60 Ω resistor, and a 40 Ω resistor are connected in parallel and placed across a potential difference of 12.0 V. What is the equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit?

Answers

Answer:

The equivalent resistance of the parallel circuit would be 20 Ω

Explanation:

To calculate the resistance of resistors connected in parallel, the formula to be used is

1/R = 1/R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄...

1/R = 1/120 + 1/60 + 1/40

1/R = (1 + 2 + 3)/120

1/R = 6/120

1/R = 1/20 Ω

This can be rewritten or cross-multiplied to be

R × 1 = 20 × 1

R = 20 Ω

The equivalent resistance (R) would then be 20 Ω

Calculate the train's average speed and velocity over the two-hour trip. Show your work. Identify if each of the measurements are a scalar or vector quantity

Answers

divide until you figure out how many miles they went per second. If it takes 5 seconds to reach 50 miles per hour it took 10 seconds per every 10 miles meaning each mile took 1 second. (Not actually possible but the answer) So, If it finished a 100 mile trip in 2 hours it took an hour for 50 miles. If it took 1 hour for 50 miles divide 60/50 which gets you 1.2 so it took 1.2 miles per minute meaning the car went 120 miles per hour I believe. I hope this helps :)

A 2.0 kg block is pulled across a horizontal surface by a 15 N force at a constant velocity.a. What is the net force acting on the block?

Answers

Answer:

0

Explanation:

the block is being pulled at a constant velocity meaning it has no acceleration. the rule is fnet=mass x acceleration so if theres no acceleration there is no force net!

A block of mass 2 kg is pulled across a surface with a force of 15 N then the net force acting on the block is 0.

What is Force?

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. A force might cause an object has mass to accelerate when it changes its velocity, for, us when it moves away from rest. An obvious way to describe force is in terms of push or pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has equal magnitude and direction. It is calculated using the newton SI unit (N). Force is denoted by the letter F.

The net force exerted by an object was equal to the speed at which its velocity varies over time, according to Newton's second law in its original formulation.

The block has no acceleration because it is being pushed at a constant speed. If there is no acceleration, there is no force net because the formula is net force =mass × acceleration.

Explanation:

What type of system is a black hole? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing—no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from it.[1] The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.[2][3]

The boundary of the region from which no escape is possible is called the event horizon. Although the event horizon has an enormous effect on the fate and circumstances of an object crossing it, according to general relativity it has no locally detectable features.[4] In many ways, a black hole acts like an ideal black body, as it reflects no light.[5][6] Moreover, quantum field theory in curved spacetime predicts that event horizons emit Hawking radiation, with the same spectrum as a black body of a temperature inversely proportional to its mass. This temperature is on the order of billionths of a kelvin for black holes of stellar mass, making it essentially impossible to observe directly.

Objects whose gravitational fields are too strong for light to escape were first considered in the 18th century by John Michell and Pierre-Simon Laplace.[7] The first modern solution of general relativity that would characterize a black hole was found by Karl Schwarzschild in 1916, although its interpretation as a region of space from which nothing can escape was first published by David Finkelstein in 1958. Black holes were long considered a mathematical curiosity; it was not until the 1960s that theoretical work showed they were a generic prediction of general relativity. The discovery of neutron stars by Jocelyn Bell Burnell in 1967 sparked interest in gravitationally collapsed compact objects as a possible astrophysical reality.

Black holes of stellar mass are expected to form when very massive stars collapse at the end of their life cycle. After a black hole has formed, it can continue to grow by absorbing mass from its surroundings. By absorbing other stars and merging with other black holes, supermassive black holes of millions of solar masses (M☉) may form. There is consensus that supermassive black holes exist in the centers of most galaxies.

The presence of a black hole can be inferred through its interaction with other matter and with electromagnetic radiation such as visible light. Matter that falls onto a black hole can form an external accretion disk heated by friction, forming quasars, some of the brightest objects in the universe. Stars passing too close to a supermassive black hole can be shred into streamers that shine very brightly before being "swallowed."[8] If there are other stars orbiting a black hole, their orbits can be used to determine the black hole's mass and location. Such observations can be used to exclude possible alternatives such as neutron stars. In this way, astronomers have identified numerous stellar black hole candidates in binary systems, and established that the radio source known as Sagittarius A*, at the core of the Milky Way galaxy, contains a supermassive black hole of about 4.3 million solar masses.

On 11 February 2016, the LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo collaboration announced the first direct detection of gravitational waves, which also represented the first observation of a black hole merger.[9] As of December 2018, eleven gravitational wave events have been observed that originated from ten merging black holes (along with one binary neutron star merger).[10][11] On 10 April 2019, the first direct image of a black hole and its vicinity was published, following observations made by the Event Horizon Telescope in 2017 of the supermassive black hole in Messier 87's galactic centre.[12][13][14]

The crescent shape arises from the black hole's rotation and relativistic beaming; the shadow is about 2.6 times the diameter of the event horizon.[12]
