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>

A curtain hangs straight down in front of an open window. A sudden gust of wind blows past the window; and the curtain is pulled
VikaD [51]

Answer:

option B.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B.

The phenomenon of the curtains to pull out of the window can be explained using Bernoulli's equation.

According to Bernoulli's Principle when the speed of the moving fluid increases the pressure within the fluid decrease.

When wind flows in the outside window the pressure outside window decreases and pressure inside the room is more so, the curtain moves outside because of low pressure.

If one of the satellites is at a distance of 20,000 km from you, what percent accuracy in the distance is required if we desire
Lesechka [4]
<span>It is quite straightforward to convert an uncertainty to a percent uncertainty. We can divide the amount of uncertainty by the original amount and then multiply by 100%.

(2 m / 20,000,000 m) X 100% = 0.00001%

The percent uncertainty is 0.00001%.

The percent accuracy is the 100% - percent uncertainty.
The percent accuracy = 100% - 0.00001% = 99.99999%

The percent accuracy is 99.99999%.</span>

A 1150 kg car is on a 8.70° hill. using x-y axis tilted down the plane, what is the x-component of the weight?
Fed [463]
I assume the x-y axis are tilted such that the x-axis is parallel to the surface of the hill while the y-axis is perpendicular to it.

In this case, the x-component of the weight is given by:
W_x =mg \sin \theta
where
m is the mass of the car
g is the acceleration of gravity
\theta is the angle of the hill

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find
W_x=(1150 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(\sin 8.70^{\circ})=1706 N
