Force = 40 - 24 = 16N

Force = mass / acceleration

Acceleration = Force / mass

Acceleration = 16 / 8

Acceleration = 2 m/s^2

  Force = 40 - 24
= 16N.

Thus, Force = 16N.

By deducing Newton's second law of motion,

F = MA

16 = 8A

Thus, A = 16/8 = 2 m/s²

Thus, the object accelerates at 2m/s²

A satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet. A second satellite is placed in a different circular orbit that is farther a
irinina [24]

The speed of the second satellite is less than the speed of the first satellite.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The speed of any moving object is the ratio of the distance covered and the time taken to cover that distance.

Given is a satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet. A second satellite is placed in a different circular orbit that is farther away from the same planet.

When the distance from the center of the orbit increases, the time to complete the orbit will be greater.

Thus, the speed of the second satellite is less than the speed of the first satellite.

Learn more about speed.

A 170 kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.25 m/s by pushing off with his legs from a 2600 kg space capsule
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg

Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s

mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg

Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :

initial momentum = final momentum

Since, initial momentum is zero. So,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=0

170\ kg\times 2.25\ m/s+2600\ kg\times v_2=0

v_2=-0.17\ m/s

So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Picture a ball traveling at a constant speed around the inside of a circular Structure. is the ball acceleration? Explain why?
baherus [9]
Yes. On a circular path, the direction of motion is constantly changing. Change of direction is acceleration, even at constant speed.
