hi:) is question 6 correct?
-- When you see the words "uniform speed", that means the car's speed is not changing.
-- Right under those words in the picture, there's a note to remind you that "uniform speed" also means "acceleration is zero".
-- The whole key to this question is to find out if you remember that acceleration and net force always go together.
.==> If there's net force, then there's acceleration.
.==> If there's acceleration, then there's net force.
.==> If there's NO net force then there's NO acceleration.
.==> If there's no acceleration, then there's no net force.
-- In this picture, there's no acceleration, so there's no net force.
-- The driving force on the car is 2000N forward.
-- But the car's speed is not changing, so the net force on the car must be zero.
-- So that 'resisting' force pulling the car backwards must be 2000N. Then the net force on the car adds up to zero.
-- If the resisting force pulling the car backwards is not zero, then the net force on the car would not be zero, and the car's speed would be changing.
A group of students gather for some fun during their summer break from school. Kendall and Jacoby have a water balloon fight during one of those “lazy” days of summer.
Marie, Gary, and Lois remember a video about work that their science teacher, Ms. Lewis, showed them before they left for vacation.
Marie says: “If Kendall throws a water balloon at Jacoby, there is no work being done. It’s just boys being boys.”
Gary says: “If Kendall throws a water balloon at Jacoby, there is work being done by Jacoby because he has to run.”
Lois says: “If Kendall throws a water balloon at Jacoby, there is work being done because Kendall had to exert a force that made the water balloon travel a certain distance to hit Jacoby.”
Which one of them is correct and why? Answer in complete sentences! You can type on this document and turn in.
Answer:

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can determine that the helicopter and car are traveling ____.
Select one:
a. in the same direction
b. in different directions
c. at the same speed
d. at the same velocity
Answer:
d. at the same velocity
Explanation:
I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
Answer:
C. At the same speed
Explanation:
I just took the exam and got the answer correct
Which of the following is NOT a vector quantity?
(A) Acceleration
(B) Average velocity
(C) Linear momentum
(D) Potential energy
(E) Force
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Acceleration has both magnitude and direction. because velocity is vector quantity
average velocity is vector
linear momentum = mass× velocity
therefore it's also vector
force = mass× acceleration
acceleration is vector therefore force also vector
potential energy= mgh
energy in any form is scaler quantity therefore potential energy too is a scaler quantity.

What is the momentum of a man of mass 10kg when he walks with a uniform velocity of 2m/s.
(point stealers will be reported so pls dont do it)
Answer:
[tex]Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Mass = 10kg
Velocity = 2m/s
Required
Calculate the momentum of the man
Momentum is calculated as thus
[tex]Momentum(p) = Mass(m) * Velocity(v)[/tex]
or
[tex]p = mv[/tex]
So; to solve this question; we simply substitute 10kg for mass and 2m/s for velocity in the above formula;
The formula becomes
[tex]Momentum(p) = 10kg * 2m/s[/tex]
[tex]Momentum(p) = 10 * 2 * kg * m/s[/tex]
[tex]Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s[/tex]
Hence, the momentum of the man is [tex]20kgm/s[/tex]
Which of the following statements best describes the second law of
thermodynamics?
A. Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy
decreases.
B. Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases.
C. Heat flows spontaneously from cold to hot, and entropy increases.
D. Heat flows spontaneously from cold to hot, and entropy
decreases.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Heat flows from hot to cold to lower the temperature of hot areas and increase temperature of cold areas. The end result is that the 2 areas have the same temperature, thus increasing entropy.
Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases.
The second law of thermodynamics relates to the entropy of a system. According to the second law of thermodynamics, the total entropy of a system may increase or remain constant in a spontaneous process.
The implication of this is that the entropy of a system never decreases. The entropy of a system increases when heat flows from a hot to a cold body and not vice versa.
Hence, the statement that; "Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases" describes the second law of thermodynamics.
What is the mass of an object that has a weight of 80.0 N?
Explanation:
SUPONIENDO QUE LA ACELERACIÓN DE LA GRAVEDAD ES [tex]9.80 m/s^{2}[/tex]
USANDO LA SEGUNDA LEY DE NEWTON:
m = 80.0 N/[tex]9.80 m/s^{2}[/tex] = 8.16 kg
Answer:
8kg
Explanation:
using the formula Force(F)=mass(m)×acceleration(a),
since we are finding the mass of the object,we will make m the subject by dividing both sides by a.
you will now get m= f/a
the acceleration on Earth is usually 10m/s
m= 80/10
m= 8/1 which is also 8kg

describe what factors can make it difficult to reintroduce captive animals into their natural habitats.
Answer:
Captive animals are animals that are maintained by people in an enclosed place not allowing them to be free. There are several factors that make it difficult to reintroduce them to their natural habitats like:
-Captive animals don't learn the necessary skills to survive in their natural habitats like hunting skills.
-They are too used to have contact with people which makes them vulnerable to hunters.
-Sometimes these animals are not able to integrate with a wild population.
-It has been found that some captive animals are more susceptible to diseases.

Answer:
The fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string is 1.7 m.
Explanation:
We have,
Velocity of wave on a guitar string is 344 m/s
Length of the guitar string is 85 cm or 0.85 m
It is required to find the fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string. The fundamental frequency on the string is given by :
[tex]f=\dfrac{v}{2l}\\\\f=\dfrac{344}{2\times 0.85}\\\\f=202.35\ Hz[/tex]
Now fundamental wavelength is :
[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{344}{202.35}\\\\\lambda=1.7\ m[/tex]
So, the fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string is 1.7 m.
Remembering the Battle of Bunker Hill what did general Howe and his troops do
Answer:
General Howe and the British regrouped after losing the hill.
Explanation:
British forces marched to Breed's Hill on 17 June under the order of Major General William Howe. When the British Army marched in waves toward the Americans, Colonel William Prescott issued orders to avoid the fire until British troops came to clear sight in an attempt to protect the dwindling supply of ammunition to the Americans. Many British soldiers have been killed or maimed; the remainder has withdrawn down the hill. In a second wave, the British stormed the hill once again but met with the same fate. So they withdrew again, suffering a large number of casualties. Eventually the British took the hill in the third attempt but at a great cost of casualties.
