A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i
inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N

Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distanc
kumpel [21]

Answer:\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}

Explanation:

Given

car A had a head start of D_A

and it starts at x=0 and t=0

Car B has to travel a distance of D_A and d_a

where d_a is the distance travel by car A in time t

distance travel by car A is

d_a=v_A\times t

For car B with  speed v_B

d_B=D_A+d_a

v_B\times t=D_A+v_A\times t

t=\frac{D_A}{v_B-v_A}

If earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of earth would be:________
siniylev [52]

If the earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of the earth would be V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

<h3>What is an escape velocity?</h3>

The ratio of the object's travel distance over a specific period of time is known as its velocity. As a vector quantity, the velocity requires both the magnitude and the direction. the slowest possible speed at which a body can break out of the gravitational pull of a certain planet or another object.

The formula to calculate the escape velocity of earth is given below:-

V_e=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{r}}

Given that earth's mass was half its actual value but its radius stayed the same. The escape velocity will be calculated as below:-

V_e=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{r\times 2}}

V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

Therefore, If the earth's mass were half its actual value but its radius stayed the same, the escape velocity of the earth would be V_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}.

To know more about escape velocity follow

Answer the question with step.​
Maru [420]

Answer:

f1/f2 =W1/W2 = 1/3

.0 f2 = 3f1

As ,

1/F= 1/f1 +1/f2

...1/40 = 1/f1 - 1/3f1

f1=> 80/3 cm

... f2 = 2f1 = 3 x 80/3 = 80 cm
