Answer:

Assuming a constant force, if the mass of object increases, the acceleration will decrease and if mass of a object decreases, the acceleration will increase. Also if the force applied to object increases the acceleration will also increase whereas if the force applied decreases, the acceleration will also decrease.

Explanation:

We know that according to newton's second law of motion,

F = ma, where F is force applied, m is mass of an object and a is measure of body accelerated with the applies force.

a = F/m

Assuming force is constant, we get

a α 1/m, that is acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. Hence if mass of an object decreases the acceleration of object will increases and vice versa.

Also from equation, F = ma, we infer that F α a . That is the force applied is directly proportional to amount the body is accelerated. . Hence if force applied increases then the acceleration will also increase and vice versa

PLS HELP WITH THIS DENSITY QUESTIONS AND WHEN SHOWING STEPS PLS USE GRASS

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume

132g/(48.9 cm³) = 2.7 g/cm³

(27 g)/(3 cm³) = 9 g/cm³

512 g/(65 cm³) = 7.9 g/cm³

1.2 kg/(3243 cm³) cm³ = 1200 g/(3243 cm³) = 0.37 g/cm³

What is Ohm's Law, and how does it work in real life.

Firdavs [7]

Explanation:

Ohms law states that the electrical current present in a metallic conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between the metallic conductor and inversely proportional to the resistance therefore if the voltage is increased resistance also increases provided that temperature and other physical properties remains constant V=IR

Geosynchronous satellites orbit the Earth at a distance of 42 000 km from the Earth's center. Their angular speed at this height

frozen [14]

Answer:

Force will be 7.97 N

Explanation:

We have given that earth is at s distance of 42000 km from the earth center

So r = 42000 km = 42000000 m

Mass m = 1500 kg

Angular velocity of earth $\omega =7.29\times 10^{-5}rad/sec$

We have to find the force

We know that force is given by

$F=m\omega ^2r=1500\times (7.29\times 10^{-5})^2\times 42000000=797.1615\times 10^{-2}=7.97N$

A ray moving in plastic at 62.9 deg enters water, where it bends to 70.9 deg. What is the index of refraction of the plastic?

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

refractive index of plastic is 1.42

Explanation:

When light ray enters from one medium to other medium then due to transition of light it bends away or towards the normal, this phenomenon is known as refraction of light

So here we know that

$n_1 sin i = n_2 sin r$

here we have

$n_2 = \frac{4}{3}$

$i = 62.9^o$

$r = 70.9^o$

now we have

$n_1 sin62.9 = (\frac{4}{3}) sin70.9$

$n_1 = 1.42$
