A 63.0-kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 4.20 m/s2 . what is the net external force on him?

1 answer:

8 0

From Newton's second law of motion, it was stated that the net external force on a certain object can be calculated by multiplying its mass to the acceleration. This can mathematically be expressed as,
Fnet = m x a
where m is mass and a is acceleration.

Substitute the known values to the equation,
Fnet = (63 kg) x (4.20 m/s²)
Fnet = 264.6 kg m/s²

ANSWER: <em>Fnet = 264.6 N</em>

<h3>What is a transformer?</h3>

A transformer is an electrical device that is used to step up or step down voltage.

The formula for calculating the turns ratio of a transformer is given below.

<h3> Formula</h3>

a = V/v.......... Equation 1

Where:

V = Primary voltage
v = Secondary voltage
a = Turns ratio of the transformer

From the question,

Given:

V = 20000 V
v = 500 v

Substitute the values above into equation 1

a = 20000/500
a = 40.

Hence, The turn ratio of the transformer is 40.

2. Four resistors of 2 ohm each are connected first in series and then in parallel with a battery.Find the ratio of electric cur

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Ratio of series current to parallel

= 1 : 8

Explanation:

Total resistance Rt

For series, Rt = 2+2+2+2 = 4ohms

For parallel, 1/Rt = 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2

1/Rt = 4/2, Rt = 2/4 ohms.

If we use a 1V battery, then,

I = V/Rt

I = 1/4 = 0.25 ampere for series arrangement.

I = 1/0.5 = 2 ohms.

Ratio of current of series to parallel = 0.25 : 2

= 1 : 8

Which of the given will facilitate a normal Diels–Alder reaction?

babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

- The rate of the Diels-Alder is orders of magnitude faster if there is an electron-withdrawing group on the dienophile. For example, replacing a hydrogen on ethene with the electron-withdrawing group CN results in about a 10^5 increase in the reaction rate.

- Other common electron withdrawing functional groups that will accelerate the Diels Alder reaction of dienophiles include aldehydes, ketones, and esters.

- In short, any functional group conjugated with the pi bond which can act as a pi acceptor will accelerate a Diels-Alder reaction with a typical diene.

- See attachment for graphical explanation.
