Answer:
1. 
2. 
Explanation:
1. According to Newton's law of motion, the puck motion is affected by the acceleration, which is generated by the push force F.
In Newton's 2nd law: F = ma
where m is the mass of the object and a is the resulted acceleration. So in the 2nd experiment, if we double the mass, a would be reduced by half.
Since the puck start from rest, in the 1st experiment, to achieve speed of v it would take t time
Now that acceleration is halved:
You would need to push for twice amount of time
2. The distance traveled by the puck is as the following equation:
So if the acceleration is halved while maintaining the same d:
As 
, then 
. Also
So t increased by 1.14
Answer:
10 N
Explanation:
While many people would like to simply add the forces from each end to get a total force, this is fundamentally incorrect.
MIGHT BE TOTALLY WRONG
In what may be one of the most remarkable coincidences in
all of physical science, the tangential component of circular
motion points along the tangent to the circle at every point.
The object on a circular path is moving in that exact direction
at the instant when it is located at that point in the circle. The
centripetal force ... pointing toward the center of the circle ...
is the force that bends the path of the object away from a straight
line, toward the next point on the circle. If the centripetal force
were to suddenly disappear, the object would continue moving
from that point in a straight line, along the tangent and away from
the circle.
Answer:
4 m/s² down
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the net force acting on the object.
The net force acting on the object from the left and right side is zero because the same force is applied on both sides.
Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the object from the up and down side. This can be obtained as follow:
Force up (Fᵤ) = 15 N
Force down (Fₔ) = 25 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Fₙ = Fₔ – Fᵤ
Fₙ = 25 – 15
Fₙ = 10 N down
Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the object. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (ml= 2.5 Kg
Net force (Fₙ) = 10 N down
Acceleration (a) =?
Fₙ = ma
10 = 2.5 × a
Divide both side by 2.5
a = 10 / 2.5
a = 4 m/s² down
Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 4 m/s² down
