Answer:

B

Explanation:

When ever there is a collision between two bodies , according to Newton 's third law of motion both bodies irrespective of their masses exert  force of same magnitude , in opposite direction and these forces always act in a straight line . hence B is the choice

An overnight rainstorm has caused a major roadblock. Three massive rocks of mass m1=584 kg, m2=838 kg, and m3=322 kg have blocke
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Force must be applied to m₁ to move the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s² = 436 N

Explanation:

Total force required = Mass x Acceleration,

F = ma

Here we need to consider the system as combine, total mass need to be considered.

Total mass, a = m₁+m₂+m₃ = 584 + 838 + 322 = 1744 kg

We need to accelerate the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s²

That is acceleration, a = 0.250 m/s²

Force required, F = ma = 1744 x 0.25 = 436 N

Force must be applied to m₁ to move the group of rocks from the road at 0.250 m/s² = 436 N

Three balls are in water. Ball 1 floats, with half of it exposed above the water level. Ball 2, with a density less than the den
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

Explanation:

Ball 1 is floating on water. Weight of ball 1 is Fg=m1g  is acting vertically downward

Force of buoyancy FB = ρVdisg is acting vertically upward.

Net force acting on the ball is zero, FB=Fg

Answer

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

The environment affects people, but people don't affect the environment.<br><br><br>TRUE OR FALSE
Drupady [299]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The statement that the environment affects people, but people don't affect the environment is incorrect. It should be noted that people also affect the environment.

Some of our impact on the environment include pollution, deforestation, overpopulation, burning of fossil fuels etc. Thus has resulted in changes such as erosion, climate change, etc.

An electric ceiling fan is rotating about a fixed axis with an initial angular velocity magnitude of 0.240 rev/s. The magnitude
bazaltina [42]

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity = 0.240 rev/s

Angular acceleration = 0.917 rev/s²

Diameter = 0.720 m

(a). We need to calculate the angular velocity after time 0.203 s

Using equation of angular motion

\omega_{f}=\omega_{i}+\alpha t

Put the value in the equation

\omega_{f}=0.240+0.917\times0.203

\omega_{f}=0.426\ rev/s

The angular velocity is 0.426 rev/s.

(b). We need to calculate the tangential speed of the blade

Using formula of  tangential speed

v= r\omega

Put the value into the formula

v = \dfrac{0.720 }{2}\times0.426\times2\pi

v=0.963\ m/s

The tangential speed of the blade is 0.963 m/s.

(c). We need to calculate the magnitude at of the tangential acceleration

Using formula of tangential acceleration

a_{t}=r\alpha

Put the value into the formula

a_{t}=0.36\times0.917\times2\pi

a_{c}=2.074\ m/s^2

The tangential acceleration is 2.074 m/s².

Hence, This is required solution.

Please re-explain the following phrases in terms of momentum
zheka24 [161]
A. An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force : The momentum of an object is constant unless an outside force acts on the object.

B. Force is defined as mass times acceleration : the rate of change of the momentum of a particle is proportional to the force F acting on it, hence the force is equal to <span>mass times acceleration.

C. </span>For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction : <span>to every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. </span>
