A. The height above the ground reached by the mass is 2.3 m.

<h3>Height traveled by the mass</h3>

P.E = mgh

where;

  • m is mass
  • h is height reached by the object
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

h = P.E/mg

h = (342)/(15.2 x 9.8)

h = 2.3 m

Thus, the height above the ground reached by the mass is 2.3 m.

7. What is the acceleration of a 1,300 kg truck with a net force of 5,000 newtons (N)?
Crank

Answer: 1200 kg

Explanation: Taking into account the Newton's second law, the mass of the vehicle is 1200 kg.

In first place, acceleration in a body occurs when a force acts on a body. There are two factors that influence the acceleration of an object: the net force acting on it and the mass of the body.

Newton's second law states that this force will change the speed of an object because the speed and / or direction will change. These changes in velocity are called acceleration.

So, Newton's second law defines the relationship between force and acceleration mathematically. This law says that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the sum of all the forces acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Mathematically, Newton's second law is expressed as:

F= m×a

where:

F = Force [N]

m = Mass [kg]

a = Acceleration [m/s²]

In this case, you know:

F= 1800 N

m= ?

a= 1.5 m/s²

Replacing:

1800 N= m× 1.5 m/s²

Solving:

m= 1800 N÷1.5 m/s²

m= 1200 kg

Finally, the mass of the vehicle is 1200 kg.

Anne applies a force on a toy car and makes it move forward. What can be said about the forces acting on the toy car at the mome
tester [92]

The correct answer to the question is unbalanced .

EXPLANATION:

As per Newton's first laws of motion, we know that a body at rest will be at rest or a body moving with uniform velocity along a straight line will keep on moving with the same velocity along that line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced forces acting on.

Hence, it is the unbalanced force which is responsible for creating the motion on the body.

As per the question, Anne applied some force on the toy car. It is called applied force. There is also frictional force between car and the surface which opposes the motion of the car. The toy car will move due to the net force acting on it. The net force is known as unbalanced force.

Two children stand on a platform at the top of a curving slide next to a backyard swimming pool. At the same moment the smaller
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

i )

In a conservative field like gravitational field , loss of potential energy  or work done , depends upon the initial and final point and not the manner in which 2 nd point has been reached . Since the initial and final point is same in both the cases of straight and curved path , final velocity will remain same for both of them .

Hence , due to increased mass of larger child , his kinetic energy will be greater .

ii ) Since the initial and final point is same in both the cases of straight and curved path , final velocity will remain same for both of them .

iii ) Smaller child undergo free fall , therefore , he will fall with acceleration g . The larger child falls on curved path . So , he will have only a component of

vertical g at any moment  . hence average acceleration  will be less.
