Answer:

1.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

I will ignore gravity and friction....and will choose 25 N as UP and 40 N to Left (see diagram)

Resultant force:   R^2 = 25^2 + 40^2        R = sqrt(2225)=47 N

F = ma

F/m = a  

47 N / 40 kg = a = 1.2 m/s^2

Answer:

D. The cart is moving at a constant speed or velocity

Explanation:

Equilibrium is a state of body in which it is either at rest or moves with uniform velocity. The sum of forces acting on such a body is always zero and the sum of all the torques acting on it is also zero.

There are two types of equilibrium as follows:

Static Equilibrium: When a body is at rest it is said to be in static equilibrium.

Dynamic Equilibrium: When a body is moving with constant velocity, then it is said to be in dynamic equilibrium.

Hence, the correct option here will be:

<u>D. The cart is moving at a constant speed or velocity</u>

A tennis ball is tossed upward with a speed of 3.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}3.0 s m ​ 3, point, 0, start fraction, start text, m
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation for the velocity of an object thrown upward is the following:

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

v = velocity of the ball.

v0 = initial velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

t = time.

To find the velocity of the ball at t = 0.40 s, we have to replace "t" by 0.40 s in the equation:

v = v0 + g · t

v = 3.0 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 0.40 s

v = -0.92 m/s

The velocity of the ball is 0.92 m/s in the downward direction (-0.92 m/s).

A subway train accelerates from rest at one station at a rate of 1.30 m/s^2 for half of the distance to the next station, then d
Minchanka [31]

This problems a perfect application for this acceleration formula:

         Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)² .

During the speeding-up half:     1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²
During the slowing-down half:    1,600 meters = (1/2) (1.3 m/s²) T²

Pick either half, and divide each side by  0.65 m/s²: 

                         T² = (1600 m) / (0.65 m/s²)

                         T = square root of (1600 / 0.65) seconds

Time for the total trip between the stations is double that time.

                         T =  2 √(1600/0.65) = <em>99.2 seconds</em>  (rounded)

A vehicle starts to move from the rest gets an acceleration of 5 m/s2 within 2
likoan [24]

Answer:

When an object moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration, you can calculate its acceleration if you know how much its velocity changes and how long this takes.

The formula is,

Acceleration = change in velocity / time taken

The equation for acceleration can also be represented as:

a = (v-u) \ t

The change in velocity v – u = 5 – 0 = 5 m/s.

The acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time = 5 m/s ÷ 2 s = 2.5 m/s^2
