False.
It is false. NOT all muscles are made stronger by progressive resistance exercises.
False. Cells containing a plasmid with an antibiotic resistance gene will survive in the presence of the antibiotic because they can produce the protein that confers resistance, allowing them to withstand the antibiotic's effects.
False. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it. Newton's 2nd Law: F = ma where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. __________________________________________________ The acceleration of a body is "inversely" proportional to its mass.
False. Galileo believed that the natural state of an object was to be in motion. He famously challenged the Aristotelian idea that objects naturally came to rest.
It is not true.
true
False
False. The type of friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface is called rolling friction, not round friction. Rolling friction is caused by the deformation of the object and surface at the point of contact, which generates resistance that opposes the motion of the object.
Air- resistance is basically a type of friction between an object and the air
False
You have a false premise. Not ALL big things have bigger air resistance than small things. Air resistance must also factor in the direction of movement and the surface area against which the air is impacting, i.e., the shape of the objects.
False. The inertia of an object is determined by its mass, not its speed. Inertia is a property of matter that represents its resistance to changes in motion.
true
true
False. The force needed to overcome static friction is typically greater than that needed to overcome kinetic friction. Static friction is the resistance to motion when an object is at rest, while kinetic friction is the resistance to motion when an object is already in motion. Static friction requires more force to overcome because it is necessary to break the initial "stickiness" between the surfaces.
True. Gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to an object's height above a reference point. This means that the greater the height of an object, the greater its gravitational potential energy.
FALSE
