Answer:

1.76m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is the time rate of change in velocity of a body. It is a vector quantity that is it has both magnitude and direction

From newton's second law of motion which states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the applied force which takes place in the direction of force applied.

This law gives a formula which relate force, mass and acceleration.

Force = mass x acceleration

Given that force = 9.7N , mass = 5.5kg

Since force(F)= mass(m) x acceleration(a)

Therefore F = ma

Divide both sides by m

F/m = ma/m

Therefore,

Acceleration (a)  = F/m

Acceleration = 9.7N ➗ 5.5kg

Acceleration = 1.76m/s²

The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²

I hope this was helpful, Please mark as brainliest

What is a force, motion and energy??​
Leviafan [203]

Answer:Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. All moving objects have kinetic energy. When an object is in motion, it changes its position by moving in a direction: up, down, forward, or backward. 3.  A force is a push or pull that causes an object to move, change direction, change speed, or stop.

Explanation: Not sure if that's what you meant but that's the answer I can give you.

A boy pushes a cart with a constant velocity of 0.5m/s by applying a force of 60 N. What is the total frictional force acting on
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

60N

Explanation:

in this case the minimum amount of force required must be equal to the friction Force. i.e <u>Newton</u><u>'s</u><u> </u><u>first</u><u> </u><u>law</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>mot</u><u>ion</u><u>.</u>

therefore the maximum amount of frictional force is equal to the applied force which is 60N.

because of the net force acting on the object is zero the object is in constant motion . i.e equal and opposite force must be applied so that the object is in constant velocity therefore the total frictional force must be 60N

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
zlopas [31]

Answer:

q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Explanation:

To solve this exercise, let's use one of the consequences of Gauss's law, that all the charge on a body can be considered at its center, therefore we calculate the electric field on the surface of a sphere with the radius of the Earth

          r = 6 , 37 106 m

          E = k q / r²

          q = E r² / k

          q = \frac{100 \ (6.37 \ 10^6)^2}{9 \ 10^9}

          q = 4.5 10⁵ C

Now let's calculate the charge on the planet with E = 222 N / c and radius

           r = 0.6 r_ Earth

           r = 0.6 6.37 10⁶ = 3.822 10⁶ m

           E = k q / r²

            q = E r² / k

            q = \frac{222 (3.822 \ 10^6)^2}{ 9 \ 10^9}

            q = 3.6 10⁵  C

An 8.5 kg crate is pulled 5.1 m up a 30 degree incline by a rope angled 17 degrees above the incline. The tension in the rope is
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1. a W_t=746.63 J

  b E_p=212.415 J

  c W_n=183.96J

2. T_e=99.71J

Explanation:

a). The work done by the tension is:

W_t=T*dt

dt=\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=140N*\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=746.63 J

b). The work done potential of gravity

E_p=m*g*h

h=5.1*sin(17)

E_p=8.5kh*9.8*5.1*sin(30)

E_p=212.415 J

c). The work done by the normal force

W_n=N*d_n

d_n=5.1*sin(30)=2.55

W_n=8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)*2.55

W_n=183.96J

2. The increase in thermal energy is:

T_e=F*d

F_k=u_k*m*g=0.271*8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)

F_k=19.5N

T_e=19.55*5.1m

T_e=99.71J
