What are four ways to increase the acceleration of an object?

Apply a larger force. Make the object less massive. Decrease air resistance acting on the object. Decrease the coefficients of friction by using a 'smooth' surface, where friction is negligible.

-- Decrease its mass. -- Increase the net force acting on it.


How do you get from a liquid to a gas?

You must either increase the temperature of the liquid or decrease the pressure acting on the liquid (i.e., decrease the air pressure).


What is the reason behind gravitation?

Based on Einstein's theory of relativity, spacetime is curved around massive objects, and gravity "acting" on objects is actually just the objects following this curve in spacetime. Gravity is not a force.

Measure of force of gravity acting in an object?

weight, The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it.


According to the law of conservation of mechanical energy if the only force acting on this pendulum is gravity the total energy of the system is .?

Conservation of mechanical energy means that the total mechanical energy doesn't increase or decrease over time.Note that in real systems, some mechanical will always be lost due to friction.


Why do we experience weightlessness in space?

Because there are no contact forces acting on us. Gravity is the only acting on us. A body experiences weightlessness when gravity is the only force acting on it.


Do cleats increase or decrease friction Why?

Cleats increase friction, because cleats stick on to the surface its acting against. For example, if you are wearing cleats on your shoes, and your walking around on the grass, the cleats stick to the grass, and wreak it.
