c. the constant velocity of some falling objects.
d. the velocity of something falling from a train terminal.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

c. the constant velocity of some falling objects.

Explanation:

When a body is dropped (or thrown up) vertically and only the force of gravity acts on it, it is said that the body carries a free fall motion. Free fall is a special case of uniformly varied rectilinear motion.

Therefore, the MRUV formulas will be applied, with a modification: The acceleration of the bodies in free fall is the acceleration of gravity represented by the letter g and is, on Earth, approximately equal to 9'8 m / s2.

An object that falls, initially gains speed.  When gaining speed, the resistance force of the air will increase, which is nothing more than the result of collisions with the air molecules suffered by any object that travels through a layer of air. The greater the number of molecules with which it collides, the greater the resistance. Consequently, the air resistance depends on the speed of the falling object and its surface (its shape).

The object will continue to accelerate until the air resistance force is large enough to compensate for the force of gravity. At that time the object will continue to fall but will do so with constant speed (terminal velocity).

Answer 2
Answer: none of these are a good definition; a good definition would be "the maximum velocity that an object can fall at." however the best answer out go those is c. the constant velocity of some falling objects.

The driver of a 1500 kg car, travelling on a highway, hits the brakes. A force of 12000 N stops the car in a distance of 64 m. how fast was the car going when the driver hit the brakes?

Answers

Answer:

v = 32 m/s

Explanation:

As per work energy theorem we know that work done by all the forces must be equal to change in kinetic energy of the car

So here when brakes are applied then work is done by the brakes which is equal to change in kinetic energy of the car

so we know that work done by the brakes is given as

W = -12000 * 64

W = -768000 J

now we will have

W = 0 - (1)/(2)mv^2

-768000 = - (1)/(2)(1500) v^2

v = 32 m/s

classify the following substances as acidic, basic, or neutral: a. a soapy solution, pH = 9 b. a sour liquid, pH = 5 c. a solution with four times as many hydronium ions as hydroxide ions

Answers

A. Soapy solution (pH of 9) = basic
B. Sour liquid (pH of 5) = acidic
C. Solution with four times as many hydronium (H+) ions as hydroxide ions (OH-) = acidic

Soapy solution with a pH of 9 is basic because it has a pH greater than 7. The same goes for the sour liquid with a pH of 5, which has a pH lower than 7, making it acidic. The word sour also hints at it being acidic because of the definition of Bronsted acids. Finally, higher H+ ion concentrations make a solution more acidic.

A woman takes her dog Rover for a walk on a leash. She pulls on the leash with a force of 30.0 N at an angle of 29° above the horizontal sidewalk. What force is tending to pull Rover forward, parallel to the horizontal?

Answers

Answer:

The force parallel to the horizontal is 26.24 N

Explanation:

She pulls on the leash with a force F = 30 N, this force, since its at an angle of 29° (i will cal this angle \theta), it has a force component on x (the horizontal, i will call this force F_(x)) and a force component on y (the vertical, i will call this F_(y) ).

This can be seen in the attached picture.

Since we are asked about the force parallel to the horizontal, we need to find the component of the force F_(x), since F_(x) is the adjacent angle, we need to use cosine:

F_(x)=Fcos \theta

since F=30N and \theta=29

F_(x)=(30N)cos(29)

F_(x)=(30N)(0.8746)

F_(x)=26.24N

The force parallel to the horizontal is 26.24 N

Answer: To keep it basic start with temprature and inhibitors such as drugs that slow enzymes

surface area, temperature, concentration, and the presence of catalysts and inhibitors

Explanation:To slow down a reaction, you need to do the opposite. Factors that can affect rates of reactions include surface area, temperature, concentration, and the presence of catalysts and inhibitors. Temperature - Changing the temperature of a chemical reaction also affects the reaction rate.

Answer:

In driving, changes by fractions of a second in reaction time may mean the difference between a collision or the avoidance of one. On the road, distractions, speed, driving experience, and physical and cognitive fitness can seriously affect reaction times.
