when acceleration is held constant and objects of different mass are observed,are mass and force directly proportional or inversely proportional?Explain.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Yes. When two things are directly prortional, that means that as one increases, the other increases at the same rate. So, say you have a 2kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2. The force would be 4N. If you have a 3kg object at an acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force would be 6N. If two things are inversely proportional, that means that as one thing increases the other decreases at the same rate. A good example of this is in a chemical reaction. If you increase the surface area of the reactants, the reaction time decreases. They are inversely proportional.

Explanation:

A group of students performed an experiment to prove the law of conservation of energy. In the experiment, a flask containing water at room temperature was shaken vigorously for a few minutes. The table shows a partial record of the temperature of the water before and after shaking.Experimental Record
Temperature
Before Shaking 20 °C
After Shaking Unknown
What best predicts the unknown temperature? (3 points)

a. Less than 20 °C because the total energy of the system after shaking is lower

b. Greater than 20 °C because the total energy of the system after shaking is higher

c. Less than 20 °C, because the mechanical energy from shaking transforms to thermal energy

d. Greater than 20 °C, because the mechanical energy from shaking transforms to thermal energy

Answers

Answer: The most accurate answer is Option D.

Explanation: It's actually 22 degrees. Energy cannot be created of destroyed, but transferred and transformed to one form or another. The movement of the container, mechanical energy was transferred to the water, as heat energy. Therefore is raised the water temperatures slightly.

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

The intial potential energy is greater than the final kinetic energy.

The mechanical energy is conserved.

The mechanical energy is not conserved.

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is option "The mechanical energy is conserved".

Explanation:

Mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential Energy

Mechanical energy of the body is defined a sum of potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the body in motion. It is the energy associated with position and motion of the body.

The principle of Conservation of Mechanical Energy states that the mechanical energy of the body remains constant as long as the forces acting on the body are conservative forces.

From, this we can say that mechanical energy of the bowling ball with mass of 2 kg falling at speed of 4.4 m/s will remain conserved.

Hence,the correct answer is "The mechanical energy is conserved".

The answer to your question would be The mechanical energy is conserved. I just took the test and it was right.
