The van accelerates at 2.2m/s^2. The force causing the acceleration is 5.5 kN. Calculate the mass of the van

1 answer:

8 0

The mass of the van will be 2.5 kg, Mass is found as the ratio of the force and the acceleration.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pull applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

F=ma

5.5 kN = m × 2.2m/s²

m= 2.5 kg

Hence,the mass of the van will be 2.5 kg,

Protons - have mass 1,67 x 10(-24)g, positive charge and it is situated in nucleus.
Neutrons - have mass the same like protons, but have no charge and they are placed in nucleus, too.
Electrons - have mass 9,1 x10(-28)g, negative charge and they are situated in electronic cover.
Protons and electrons have same charge (1,6 x10(-19)C) but different kinds - protons are positive and electrons are negative.
