Here are the answers to your questions:
Question 1:
Answer: a
Explanation: Unbalanced forces occur when the forces acting on an object do not cancel each other out. In this case, two people pulling on the same side indicates an unbalanced force as they both exert force in the same direction.
Question 2:
Answer: b
Calculation: Weight = mass × gravitational acceleration = 16 kg × 3.8 m/s² = 60.8 N (approximately 61 N)
Question 3:
Answer: b
Explanation: Balancing a chemical equation typically requires finding coefficients that equalize the number of atoms for each element on both sides. The correct answer for an example would depend on the chemical equation provided.
Question 4:
Answer: b
Explanation: Newton's Second Law states that Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma).
Question 5:
Answer: a
Explanation: The object with the least mass has the least inertia, which is the resistance to changes in motion.
Question 6:
Answers: 1. c (228); 2. g (Th); 3. d (Rn); 4. j (Alpha Decay)
Explanation: A specific nuclear reaction will determine these values, which usually require context or specific particles involved.
Question 7:
Answer: c
Calculation: According to Newton's second law, F = ma, so m = F/a. For trial 1, m = 10 N / 2.5 m/s² = 4 kg.
Question 8:
Answer: b
Calculation: To achieve acceleration at half the rate, A = F/m; if A is halved, m must double. Mass = Force / (acceleration/2) = 100N / (a/2) = 1.6 kg.
Question 9:
Answer: c
Explanation: According to Newton's Third Law, if a sledgehammer applies a force of 1000 N to the wall, the wall applies a force of 1000 N back toward the sledgehammer.
Question 10:
Answers: 1. d; 2. c; 3. b; 4. a
Explanation: Based on the periodic table, these terms relate to the number of valence electrons and atomic positions.
Question 11:
Answer: c
Calculation: Weight = mass × gravity, so 305 N = 85 kg × g. This gives g approximately equal to 3.59 m/s², which indicates Earth.
Question 12:
Answer: d
Explanation: The mass must remain constant in experiments investigating acceleration changes due to force changes.
Question 13:
Answer: b
Explanation: The sidewalk provided a force to stop the foot (static friction), while the body's upper portion continued moving forward, leading to the trip.
Question 14:
Answer: a
Calculation: After 10 days, which is two half-lives, 25 g remains (100 g → 50 g after 5 days, and then 50 g → 25 g after 10 days).
Question 15:
Answer: b
Explanation: The force of friction decreases once the object is in motion compared to when it is stationary.
Question 16:
Answer: c
Explanation: Phosphorus (P) has 5 valence electrons, as it sits in Group 15 of the periodic table.
Question 17:
Answer: c
Explanation: To achieve different acceleration rates while using the same mass, the engines must produce different amounts of force.
Question 18:
Answers: 1. a; 2. b; 3. c; 4. d
Explanation: These definitions are standard for describing solutions in chemistry.
Question 19:
Answer: b
Calculation: Using F = ma, m = F/a = 220 N / 55 kg = 4.0 m/s².
Question 20:
Answer: a
Explanation: The phase change from gas to liquid is known as condensation.
Question 21:
Answer: d
Explanation: All the options given represent examples of action-reaction force pairs, which is described by Newton's Third Law.
Question 22:
This question requires personal input and reflection on resources reviewed, which cannot be answered here.
Question 23:
Answer: d
Explanation: During the collision, the force exerted by the ball on the bat is met with an equal and opposite force exerted by the bat on the ball.
Question 24:
Answer: b
Explanation: The applied force to the right is greater than the frictional force to the left, resulting in net force and causing motion to the right.
