Answer:
640 N
Explanation:
Given :
Mass of horse, m = 40kg
initial speed of horse, u = 8 m/s
final speed of horse, v = 0 m/s (because horse comes to a sudden stop)
time taken to stop, t = 0.5 s
recall that acceleration = change in speed / time taken for the change
or
a = (v - u) / t (substituting the above values)
a = (0 - 8) / 0.5
a = -16 m/s² (i.e it is a deceleration of 16 m/s²)
since we are not concerned about the direction of the force, we can simply use the absolute value of acceleration which is a = 16 m/s²
also recall that
Force = mass x acceleration
F = ma (substituting the values above)
F = 40kg x 16 m/s
F = 640 N
The direction of this vector is 170° from the positive x-axis.
- Vectors are physical quantities with both magnitude and direction
- To identify the direction, we usually use angles and take a reference axis
- The vector in the diagram is 80° to the left of the positive y-axis, so the direction of the vector is 80° + 90° = 170° anti-clockwise from the positive x-axis.
- Scalars are physical quantities which have only magnitude
- Examples of vector quantities are displacement, velocity, acceleration, force etc
- Examples of scalar quantities are distance, speed, volume, density, mass, time etc
- The direction of the given vector is 170° from the positive x-axis.

Electrical kettle:
P = 2 KW = 2000 W
U = 200 V
⇒ I = P/U = 2000 / 200 = 10 A
We apply the Law of Ohm:
R = U / I = 200V / 10A = <u>20 Ω</u>
=======
Electrical heater:
P = 1 KW = 1000 W
U = 240 V
⇒ I = P/U = 1000 / 240 = 4,16 A
We apply the Law of Ohm:
R = U / I = 240V / 4,16A = <u>57,69 Ω</u>
<u>Answer:</u>
The device with the highest resistance is <u>the electric heater.</u>

Answer:
Total time spend = 48.18 hours (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Total distance = 5,300 km
Average speed = 110 km / h
Find:
Total time spend
Computation:
Time = Distance / speed
Total time spend = Total distance / Average speed
Total time spend = 5,300 / 110
Total time spend = 48.18 hours (Approx)
