The lighter one travel with the speed of 0.574 m/sec. Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

<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.

The two skaters push off against each other on frictionless ice, then torque act by the one skater on the other is equal.

P₁₂=P₂₁

F₁₂V₁ =F₂₁V₂

625 ×V₁= 725 N×  1.5 m/s

V₁=0.574 m/sec

Hence, the lighter one travel with the speed of 0.574 m/sec.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway is 3.8 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass = 2.1× 10³ kg

distance = 5 m

angle = 20 degree

average friction force = 4 × 10³ N

to find out

find the speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway

solution

we find acceleration a by  force equation that is

force = mg×sin20 - friction force

ma = mg×sin20 - friction force

put here value

2100a = 2100 ( 9.8)×sin20 - 4000

a = 1.447 m/s²

so from motion of equation

v²-u² = 2as

here u is 0 by initial speed and v is velocity and a is acceleration and s is distance

v²-0 = 2(1.447)(5)

v = 3.8

speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway is 3.8 m/s

Answer:

5 N right

Explanation:

Fx = 9N-4N

Fx = 5N

Since we can define the x and y axis. We have x to the right as positive.

Fe₂O3<br> + co<br> →<br> Fe3O4 + CO₂
Goryan [66]

Explanation:

                    Fe₂O₃  + CO  → Fe₃O₄ + CO₂

Balancing the equation above, we can derive simple mathematical equations that are very easy to solve.

             aFe₂O₃  + bCO  → cFe₃O₄ + dCO₂

a,b,c and d are the coefficients needed to balance the equation above;

  Conserving Fe; 2a = 3c

                       O: 3a + b = 4c + 2d

                        C: b = d

 let a = 1;

      c = \frac{2}{3}

      Since b = d

                  3a + d = 4c + 2d

                    3a = 4c + 2d - d

                     3a = 4c + d

           a = 1, c = \frac{2}{3}

                    3 = 4 x \frac{2}{3}  +  d

                   d = \frac{1}{3}

                    b = \frac{1}{3}

multiplying a, b, c and d by 3:

            a = 3    b = 1     c = 2   and d = 1

                  3Fe₂O₃  + CO  → 2Fe₃O₄ + CO₂
