How might Newton’s second law of motion (the larger the object, the greater the amount of force needed to move it) affect the fitness routine of someone who is significantly overweight? Can you think of one type of activity that an overweight person could do without Newton’s second law of motion playing a role?

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc

Which of the following conditions lead you to see an absorption line spectrum from a cloud of gas in interstellar space? the cloud is extremely hot. the cloud is visible primarily because it reflects light from nearby stars. the cloud is cool and lies between you and a hot star. the cloud is cool and very dense, so that you cannot see any objects that lie behind it.

Sally turns on her cellular telephone to speak to her friend who is located thousands of miles away. which of the following best describes how such a telephone is able to transmit and receive information? a. the cellular telephone transmits, receives, and encodes information using only sound waves. b. the cellular telephone transmits, receives, and encodes information using only electromagnetic waves. c. the cellular telephone transmits information by electromagnetic waves to a receiver which then encodes them and produces sound. d. the cellular telephone transmits information by sound waves to a receiver which then encodes them and produces electromagnetic waves.
