Hello there!

Let's take a look at the formula for Force.

F = MA
Force is equivalent to the product of Mass and Acceleration. Mass is always measured in kg (kilograms), and Acceleration is always measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Force is always measured in Newtons (N).

We have our Mass, 66, and our Acceleration, 2 m/s^2. To find our Force, we need to multiply both of our given numbers.

66 x 2 = 132

132N is our Force.

D.) 132N is your answer.

I hope this helps!

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object  = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object  = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

 Acceleration  = \frac{12}{49}   = 0.25m/s²

A force of 10N acts on a car for 3 seconds. The impulse imparted on the car is
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

30N*s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 10N

Time = 3 seconds

To find the impulse;

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Impulse = 10 * 3

Impulse = 30Ns

A light wave passes through an aperture (that is, a narrow slit). When it does so, the degree to which the wave spreads out will
crimeas [40]

Explanation:

Single slit diffraction

Diffraction is the phenomenon of spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects. Diffraction occurs when the size of the aperture or obstacle is of the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of the incident wave. For very small aperture sizes, the vast majority of the wave is blocked. in case of  large apertures the wave passes by or through the obstacle without any significant diffraction.

"The burning of fossil fuels produces gases which are capable of trapping heat resulting into the current rise in the global tem
padilas [110]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Solar radiation at frequencies of visible light passes through the atmosphere, heating the planet's surface, subsequently this energy is emitted in infrared thermal radiation. This radiation is absorbed by the gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the greater the amount of these gases in the atmosphere, the more heat will be trapped in the earth, raising its global temperature.

Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted so that it
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º
