To answer any question to do with mass, acceleration, velocity (etc...) you use one or more of this set of equations. They are called the 'Kinematic' equations and are really easy to re-arrange, when you need to find the 'unknown quantity' that the question is asking for. Below these equations i will show you the general problem solving strategy to very quickly and easily solve these problems.

The Kinematic Equations

D = (v_{i} * t) + (0.5 * a * t^2)
v_{f} ^2 = v_{i}^2 + (2 * a * D)
v_{f} = v_{i} + (a*t)
D =  (\frac{v_{i} + v_{f}}{2} ) * t

The Method

1. 
Write down all the known variables and their values + the one you don't know with a question mark next to it. (v = ?)

2. Find the kinematic equation where you have ALL the variables <span>except</span> the one you are missing.

3. Re-arrange the equation to solve for the missing variable.

Done!

<span>HINT: Sometimes you need to use two kinematic equations, one after the other, in order to get the answer. It is common for questions to not give two variables, like velocity AND acceleration to force you to solve for one, then use that solution in another kinematic equation to finally solve the problem. Writing down the known variables is the fastest way to see what you have and what you need.
____________________________________________

</span>This question takes things one step further and is asking you to find the FORCE on the bullet. To convert to a force in any situation you need to find the <span>acceleration</span> and multiply it by the mass as follows:

F = m * a

<em>Remember this equation!! you will use it ALL the time.

</em>Please let me know if you still cannot solve this problem, but i believe you should be fine :)<em>

A single mass (m1 = 3.5 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 278 N/m. 1)What is the dist
artcher [175]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.126m

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;

F = k x e            -------------------(i)

Where;

k = the spring's constant.

From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e

F = W               -----------------------(ii)

<em>But;</em>

W = m x g;

where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]

<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>

F = W = m x g

<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>

F = k x e

m x g = k x e      ------------------(iii)

<em>From the question;</em>

m = m1 = 3.5kg

k = 278N/m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

3.5 x 10 = 278 x e

35 = 278e

<em>Now solve for e;</em>

e = 35/278

e = 0.126m

Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m

Scilla [17]
   <span> The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °C. At higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be.....
a) higher, because the altitude is greater.
b) lower, because temperatures are lower.
c) the same, because water always boils at 100 °C.
d) higher, because there are fewer water molecules in the air.
==> e) lower, because the atmospheric pressure is lower.
--------------------------
Water boils at a lower temperature on top of a mountain because there is less air pressure on the molecules.
-------------------
I hope this is helpful. </span>

State pascal law and write three instrument which base unit?​
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle[1][2][3] or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.[4] The law was established by French mathematician Blaise Pascal in 1653 and published in 1663.[5][6]

Select the statement that correctly lists the forces from strongest to weakest. (2 points)
Vilka [71]

Strong Nuclear force: it is the short range force and strongest fundamental force in all type of forces.

Electromagnetism: this is the force due to magnetic and electric behavior of the particles. It is moderate type of force and its range is more than Nuclear force.

Weak Nuclear Force: This force is also short range force which act between the nucleoside. But this force is also moderate type of force

Gravitational force: this force is between two point masses and least order of force. also the range of this force is upto infinite.

so the correct order of this fundamental force is

<em>strong nuclear, electromagnetism, weak nuclear, gravitational</em>
