Answer from: syd6702

The fundamental force responsible for the cohesion of the water molecules leaving the faucet is the electromagnetic force.
Electromagnetic forces act on particles that are electrically charged. Water molecules are polar, which means that they have a positively charged end and a negatively charged end. This polarity arises from the fact that oxygen pulls the electrons in the molecule towards itself and attains a negative charge, while the hydrogen atoms in the molecules are left with a positive charge.

Answer from: ehamilton3

Electromagnetic force is responsible for the inter-molecular interaction. The fundamental force that join water molecules together when water flows from faucet is Electromagnetic force.

Fundamental Forces:

These are the parent force of any interaction in universe. There are four type of fundamental forces.

Strong Nuclear forcesElectromagnetic ForceWeak nuclear forceGravity

Electromagnetic Force:

This force work on charged molecules. In water molecule, difference between the electronegativity of Hydrogen and Oxygen is very high , which makes water molecule polar. These polar water molecules interact with each other by forming H- bond. This interaction between water molecules known as Cohesion.

Hence, the fundamental force that join water molecules together when water flows from faucet is Electromagnetic force.

Answer from: Quest

the box does not move because you need to use a force greater than 300 n. you are only using 50 n. it needs to at least be 301 n for the box to move because then it is an unbalanced force and it will move the way that the greater force is pushing it. if you use only 300 n it will be a balanced force and will not move because the force you are exerting on the box is the same as its force.

hope this !

im sorry if i went too in depth, i am going to include a link to a video on khan academy that will explain this. hope that you like the video and that it explains more in detail to you.

that is the link.

According to newton's second law, when the same force is applied to two objects of different masses, a the object with greater mass will experience a great acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience an even greater acceleration, b. the object with greater mass will experience a smaller acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience a greater acceleration, c. the object with greater mass will experience a greater acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience a smaller acceleration, d. the object with greater mass will experience a small acceleration, and the object with less mass will experience an even smaller acceleration.

You have two photos of a person walking. one shows the person at the corner of third and main streets, the other shows the person at the corner of tenth and main streets. there are lampposts at every corner in this town, and the first picture shows it to be 10: 32: 00 exactly. the second picture shows it to be 10: 49: 30. you know three facts: (1) all of the clocks are synchronized; (2) there are exactly 12 equal-sized blocks per kilometer in this town; and (3) the streets that cross main in this area are numbered consecutively, with no interruptions. what is the person’s average speed in kilometers per hour?

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
