According to the net force, the acceleration of the book is 16.47 m/s².

We need to know about force to solve this problem. According to second Newton's Law, the force applied to an object will be proportional to mass and acceleration. Hence, it can be written as

∑F = m . a

where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration

From the question above, we know that

m = 3 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

F1 = 20 N

Find the net force

∑F = F1 + W

∑F = 20 + m . g

∑F = 20 + 3 . 9.8

∑F = 20 + 29.4

∑F = 49.4 N

Find the acceleration

∑F = m . a

49.4 = 3 . a

a = 16.47 m/s²

Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

For most temperature scales, the boiling point of water and the freezing point is used to calibrate it.

Three known temperature scales;

  • Kelvin scale
  • Celcius scale
  • Fahrenheit scale

                               Kelvin scale              Celcius scale          Fahrenheit scale

Freezing point             273K                            0°C                        32°F

Melting point                373K                          100°C                     212°F

Un lote de construcción rectangular mide 100 metros por 150 metros. Calcula el área de este lote en yardas cuadradas.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 17939.74 yards

Explanation:

Given , A rectangular measures 100 meters by 150 meters

To find : Area of rectangle.

Formula :

Area of rectangle = Length x width

Here, let length = 100 meters and width = 150 meters

Then, Area of rectangle = 100 meters x 150 meters = 15,000 square meters

Also , 1 meter = 1.09361 yards

Then, Area of rectangle = 15,000 x 1.09361 x 1.09361 square yards

= 17939.7424815 square yards

≈ 17939.74 yards

Hence, the area of rectangle is 17939.74 yards .

Science Seminar Question: Why did Vehicle 2 fall off the cliff in Claire's test of the collision scene but Vehicle 2 did not fal
asambeis [7]

Complete Question:

Check the file attached to get the complete question

Answer:

In the film Ice word Revenge, vehicle 2 did not fall of the cliff because, Weight_{vehicle 1} < Weight_{vehicle 2} but in Claire's test, vehicle 2 off the cliff because Weight_{vehicle 1} \geq Weight_{vehicle 2}

Explanation:

In Claire's test, the weight of vehicle 1 is either equal to or greater than the weight of vehicle 2, so it was sufficient to push it down the cliff.  In the film Ice word revenge, the weight of vehicle 1 is less than the weight of vehicle 2, it is not sufficient to make it fall off the cliff ( Note: Looking exactly the same in the movie, as Claire claimed, does not mean they have the same mass). Therefore if Claire wants a collision that will not make the vehicle 2 fall off the cliff, he should collide it with a vehicle of lesser mass/weight.

What is the fate of solar radiation that reaches the earth?
expeople1 [14]
When solar radiation reaches the Earth it quickly dissipates as most of the radiation and UV rays are blocked by ozone layer, but more radiation and UV rays are able to get through because of global warming.
