In order to overcome an object’s inertia (resistance to change), it must be acted upon by an unbalanced force, so the answer to the problem is letter C.

According to Newton's first law, the law of inertia, an object's velocity will not change unless it is acted upon by an outside force. This means that objects at rest tend to stay at rest, and objects in motion tend to stay in motion.

A 2.0 g metal cube and a 4.0 g metal cube are 6.0 cm apart, measured between their centers, on a horizontal surface. For both, t
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

a) t=10.2s

b) The 2g-cube moves first

Explanation:

Since the electric force is the same on both cubes and so is the coefficient of static friction, the first one to move will be the one with less mass.

So, on the 2g-cube the sum of forces are:

\left \{ {{Ff-Fe=0} \atop {N-m*g=0}} \right.

Replacing the friction on the first equation:

\mu*m*g-Fe=0  Thus   Fe=\mu*m*g=12.74*10^{-3}N

The electric force is:

Fe = \frac{K*q^2}{d^2}  Solving for q:

q=71.44nC

This amount divided by the rate at which they are being charged:

t = 71.44nC / 7nC/s = 10.2s

A person travels distance πR along the circumference
lakkis [162]

Answer: 2R

Explanation:

Here the person travels пR distance. We know that the circumference of a circle is 2πR. So your imaginated person has traveled the distance which​ is half of the circumference of the circle. And this distance is equal to its diameter. We know that diameter of a circle is two times larger than the radius. So the person's displacement is two times of the radius, means 2R. [Here 'R' means the radius of the circle]

Rod A has twice the diameter of rod B, but both are made of iron and have the same initial length. Both rods are now subjected t
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔLa/ΔLb = 1

Explanation:

The change in length of a solid is given by the following formula:

ΔL = α L ΔT

where,

ΔL = Change in length

α = coefficient of linear expansion

L = Original Length

ΔT = Change in Temperature

Since, the length and change in temperature for both rods are same. Also, the material of each rod is same, which implies that coefficient of linear expansion for both rods is same. Hence, the ratio of change in length of both rods will be:

<u>ΔLa/ΔLb = 1</u>

a film of transparent material 120 nm thick and having refractive index 1.25 is placed on a glass sheet having refractive index
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a) 600nm

b) 300nm

Explanation:

the path difference = 2t  

t = thickness of the film

L' = wavelength of light in film = L/n

L = wavength of light in air

n = refractive index of glass

(a)

for destructive interference 2t = L'/2 = L/2n

L = 4*t*n

= 4*120*10^-9*1.25  

L = 600 nm

(b)

for constructive interference 2t = L' = L/1.25

L = 2tn

= 2 × 1.25 ×  120nm

= 300 nm
