Answer:
3.43 m/s^2
Explanation:
Force is equal to mass times acceleration. (F=ma). You can use inverse operations to get the formula for acceleration, which is acceleration is equal to force divided by mass. (a=F/m). Since there are two forces here, the force friction (55 N), and the force applied (175 N), we must solve for the net force. To solve for the net force, you take the applied force (175 N) and subtract the frictional force from it (55 N). Thus, the net force is 120 N. With this done, we can now solve for our acceleration.
Using the equation for acceleration, we take the force and divide it by mass.
120/35
Answer: 3.43* m/s^2**
*Note: This is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the full answer is: 3.42857143
**Note: In case you're confused, this is meters per second squared.
Answer:
100 newtons
Explanation:
Given,
Jamal pushing a large box by a force, F = 100 N
Work done on the large box is, W = 0
It is because the applied force is less than the force of the friction between the two surfaces.
Yet, there will be a force that is exerted by the large box on Jamal.
According to newton's third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction force is in the direction opposite to the force of action. But, their magnitude remains the same.
Hence, If the action force is 100 N, then the reaction force should be in 100 N
The slope of the line on a velocityversus time graph is equal to the acceleration of the object. If the object is moving with an acceleration of +4 m/s/s (i.e., changing its velocity by 4 m/s per second), then the slope of the line will be +4 m/s/s.
When a star uses up all of it's energy and begins to die, it swells up to become a red giant star. This causes its surface gravity to decrease, thereby allowing some of its mass to escape into space.
A binary star is a pair of stars that orbit each other because of their gravitational attraction to each other. When one member of the binary pair uses up all of its energy and begins to die, it loses mass due to the reduction in surface gravity. But instead of escaping into space, this mass is attracted to the companion star because of its gravitational pull. That increases the mass of the companion star. In a process that takes thousands of years, enough matter is transfered that causes the temperature and pressure to increase sufficiently to result in nuclear fusion reactions on the companion star. When these nuclear reactions become extremely violent, the released nuclear energy increases the brightness of this companion star dramatically, thereby creating a nova.
Therefore, it is the dying of one of the stars in a binary system along with a sufficient transfer of star mass to sustain nuclear reactions that results in a nova.
