the stolen valor act

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Stolen Valor Act of 2005, signed into law by President George W. Bush on December 20, 2006, was a U.S. law that broadened the provisions of previous U.S. law addressing the unauthorized wear, manufacture, or sale of any military decorations and medals. The law made it a federal misdemeanor to falsely represent oneself as having received any U.S. military decoration or medal. If convicted, defendants might have been imprisoned for up to six months, unless the decoration lied about is the Medal of Honor, in which case imprisonment could have been up to one year. In United States v. Alvarez, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Stolen Valor Act was an unconstitutional abridgment of the freedom of speech under the First Amendment, striking down the law in a 6 to 3 decision.

Find the mass of an object moving at 20 m/s experiencing a momentum of 10
kg.m/s

Answers

Answer:

0.5 kg

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{p}{v} \\ [/tex]

p is the momentum

v is the velocity

From the question we have

[tex]m = \frac{10}{20} = \frac{1}{2} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

0.5 kg

Hope this helps you

How much does a 20 kg rock weigh on Earth where g = 9.8 m/s2?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{196\:N}[/tex]

Explanation:

Mass and weight ain't the same thing. So, for calculating weight we would use Newton's 2nd Law of Motion i.e. Force = Mass × Acceleration.

According to question,

The mass is 20kg

Acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2

Putting the given values into the formula,

F = 20 × 9.8

F = 196N

So, the weight of the rock is 196 N

Group of answer choices

The ground pushes back more strongly than your feet

The ground pushes back on your feet with equal force

There is no effect on the ground

The ground pushes back less strongly than your feet

Answers

Answer:

The ground pushes back on your feet with equal force

Explanation:

When you walk across the ground and push on it with your feet, the ground pushes back on your feet with an equal and opposite force.

This interpretation and knowledge is gotten from Newton's third law of motion.

It states that "action and reaction force are equal and opposite in nature".

The force applied to a body responds with an opposite force in the other direction. Therefore, the reaction force is of equal magnitude but directed in another direction.

Answer:

the answer is the second one: the ground pushes back on your feet with equal force

Explanation:

There are three types of friction. ______________ friction occurs when an object is not moving. ______________ friction occurs when an object is moving against another surface. ______________ friction occurs in the case of wheels or other round objects. The amount of friction depends on two things.First, how ______________ the surfaces are; and second, how ______________ the object is. It is ______________ to keep an object moving than to start it moving. This is because static friction is ______________ than sliding friction.

Word Bank:

static
sliding
rolling
bumpy
heavy
easier
greater

Answers

Answer:

1. Static friction = not moving

2.  sliding friction = moving

3. rolling friction = wheels

A gun fires a bullet horizontally with a velocity of 90 m/s from a tower. Neglecting air resistance, how far will the bullet travel horizontally in 4 seconds?​

Answers

Answer:

The distance covered along the horizontal axis is [tex]s = 360 \ m[/tex]

The distance covered along the vertical  axis is  [tex]h = 78.4 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The horizontal velocity is  [tex]u_x = 90 \ m/s[/tex]

     The time considered is  [tex]t = 4 \ s[/tex]

Generally the distance which the bullet will cover in the horizontal direction for the given time is  mathematically represented as

    [tex]s = u_xt + \frac{1}{2}* at^2[/tex]

Here a is the acceleration along the horizontal direction and the value is  [tex]a = 0 \ m/s^2[/tex]

So

     [tex]s = 90 * 4 + \frac{1}{2}* * 0 * 4^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]s = 360 \ m[/tex]

Generally the distance which the bullet will cover in the vertical  direction for the given time is  mathematically represented as

            [tex]h= u_y t + \frac{1}{2}* gt^2[/tex]

Here  [tex]u_y[/tex] is the initial  velocity of the bullet along the vertical axis and the value is  [tex]u_y = 0 \ m/s[/tex]

             [tex]h = 0 * 4 + \frac{1}{2}* 9.8 *4^2[/tex]

=>          [tex]h = 78.4 \ m[/tex]

 

Where does the kinetic energy people get during the sport come from?

Answers

Answer: When you hit a ball with a bat or racquet, work is done. A runner does work when they accelerate and acquire kinetic energy. Once that kinetic energy is achieved, work continues to be done just to overcome friction and maintain speed. Energy comes from the food they eat.

A researcher changes the DNA in a soybean plant so that it produces offspring with a resistance to weed killer. Which best describes this scenario? genetic engineering gene therapy cloning selective breeding

Answers

Answer:

Genetic engineering

Explanation:

Genetic engineering or also called genetic modification is the direct manipulation of an organism's genome in order to bring about a desirable trait in such organism. In genetic engineering procedure, the organism manipulated is called TRANSGENIC or GENETICALLY MODIFIED (GM) organisms.

In this case, a researcher is said to change the DNA (genetic material) in a soybean plant so that it produces offspring with a resistance to weed killer. This describes a genetic engineering procedure in which the soybean plant is manipulated to yield a desired trait, which is resistance to weed killer.

An object has an x-momentum of 8.5 kilogram-meters/second and a -momentum of 9.8 kilogram meters/second. What Is resultänt
momentum of the object?
OA 15.5 kilogram-meters/second
OB. 14.8 kilogram-meters/second
0c 12.97 kilogram-meters/second
OD. 16.8 kilogram-meters/second

Answers

Answer:

The resultant momentum is 12.97 kg.m/s. Choice: c

Explanation:

Momentum

The momentum is a vector that measures the quantity of motion that an object has. It's also known by the term "mass in motion".

As a vector, it can be expressed by its rectangular components:

[tex]\vec p = p_x\mathbf{i}+p_y\mathbf{j}[/tex]

The magnitude of the momentum is:

[tex]\mid \mid \vec p \mid \mid =\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}[/tex]

The object described has an x-component of:

px=8.5 Kg.m/s

And a y-component of:

py=9.8 Kg.m/s

Thus, the magnitude of the momentum is:

[tex]\mid \mid \vec p \mid \mid =\sqrt{8.5^2+9.8^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \mid \vec p \mid \mid =\sqrt{72.25+96.04}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \mid \vec p \mid \mid =\sqrt{168.29}[/tex]

[tex]\mid \mid \vec p \mid \mid =12.97[/tex]

The resultant momentum is 12.97 kg.m/s. Choice: c
