Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

Inertia is essentially an object's tendency to stay in motion or at rest unless it is forced to do otherwise (pun intended). It only makes sense to me that mass would best quantify an object's inertia, because an object with more mass would be harder to move and/or stop from moving.

Two identical boxes are being pulled across a horizontal floor at a constant velocity by a horizontal pulling force of 176 N tha

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

the tension in the rope between the boxes is equal to 88 N

Explanation:

given,

the force applied on one body F = 176 N

When two bodies are moving on horizontal plane at constant velocity then their kinetic friction (f k) is equal to applied force F

According to newton third law the resultant force acting on one body is equal to the resultant force acting on the another body.

T is the tension in the rope

$T- f_k = - (T- f_k)$

T - F = - (T - F)

T - 176 = - (T - 0)

2 T = 176

T = 176/2 = 88 N

so, the tension in the rope between the boxes is equal to 88 N

Sarah is 14 years old and skips school twice a week without any written explanation. What can she be charged with?

harina [27]

Answer:

Too many people are unaware or indifferent to that.” Fines can cost up to $500 per truancy, due within 30 days unless a judge gives an extension. For many students and families, it's another debt they can't pay. And if fines aren't paid, they can convert into an arrest warrant when a student turns 17.

Robin Hood wishes to split an arrow already in the bull's-eye of a target 40 m away.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

5.843 m

Explanation:

suppose that the arrow leave the bow with a horizontal speed , towards he bull's eye.

lets consider that horizontal motion

distance = speed * time

time = 40/ 37 = 1.081 s
