Potential energy is mass * gravity * height. (m*g*h).
350 = 17*9.8*h <--350 is its energy, 17kg is its mass, and 9.8 is gravity's acceleration on the object. We now just need to solve for h.
h = 350/(17 * 9.8) = 2.1 meters, which, when rounded to the nearest whole meter, is 2 meters.
The shelf is 2 meters high.
Alfred Wegener believed that all of the continents were originally attached! By looking at the map, you can see that Africa and South America look like they were once joined. This 'super continent' was known as Pangaea. He also found fossils that proved his point.
Hope this helps :)
There is no theoretical OR observational evidence for that statement.
A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity
The formula F = m x a.
Force = mass multiplied by acceleration.
The definition of a Newton,
the standard unit of force, is
Newton = kg × m/s^2.
(m/s = meters per second squared)
Answer:
5m/s2
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
m (mass) = 2000 kg
F (force) = 10000N
a (acceleration) =?
Using the formula F = ma, the acceleration of the truck can be obtained as follow:
F = ma
a = F/m
a = 10000/2000
a = 5m/s2
The acceleration of the truck is 5m/s2
