Newton's second law says that the acceleration of an object is produced by the force exerted on it.
Having this in mind, if you hit a baseball with a bat it will <u>accelerate according to the applied force.</u>

<h2>Answer:2.65 seconds</h2>

Explanation:

Let $a$ be the acceleration.

Let $u$ be the initial velocity.

Let $v$ be the final velocity.

Let $t$ be the time taken.

As we know from the equations of motion,

$v=u+at$

Given, $v=0\\u=8.12ms^{-1}\\a=-3.06ms^{-2}$

$0=8.12-3.06t$

$t=2.65sec$

Newtons first law 1 to 5. <br>What is each of the net force for all of the 5 questions?

erica [24]

Answer:

1. 65 N.

2. 160 N.

3. 0 N.

4. 210 N.

5. 90 N.

Explanation:

1. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 80 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 145 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 145 – 80

Fₙ = 65 N

Thus, the net force is 65 N

2. Determination of the net force.

Force 1 applied to the left (F₁) = 35 N

Force 2 applied to the left (F₂) = 125 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = F₁ + F₂

Fₙ = 35 + 125

Fₙ = 160 N

Thus, the net force is 160 N.

3. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 75 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 75 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 75 – 75

Fₙ = 0

Thus, the net force is 0 N

4. Determination of the net force.

Force 1 applied to the right (F₁) = 150 N

Force 2 applied to the right (F₂) = 60 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = F₁ + F₂

Fₙ = 150 + 60

Fₙ = 210 N

Thus, the net force is 210 N.

5. Determination of the net force.

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 115 N

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 25 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fᵣ – Fₗ

Fₙ = 115 – 25

Fₙ = 90 N

Thus, the net force is 90 N

Please answer this question for me and explain why.

horsena [70]

Answer:

D.None of these

Explanation:

The derivation of acceleration formula:

Let us call the 5kg mass $m_2$ and the 4kg mass $m_1$ . If the tension in the string is $T$ then for the mass $m_2$

(1). $T-m_2g=-m_2a$ <em>(the negative sign on the right side indicates that acceleration is downwards)</em>

And for the mass $m_1$

(2). $T-m_1g =m_1a$ <em> (the acceleration is upwards, hence the positive sign)</em>

Solving for $T$ in the 2nd equation we get:

$T =m_1a+m_1g$ ,

and putting this into the 1st equation we get:

$m_1a+m_1g-m_2g=-m_2a\\\\m_1a+m_2a = m_2g-m_1g\\\\a(m_1+m_2)= (m_2-m_1)g$

$\boxed{a= \dfrac{(m_2-m_1)}{(m_1+m_2)} g}$

Back to the question:

Using the formula for the acceleration we find

$a= \dfrac{(5kg-4kg)}{(5kg+4kg)} g$

$a = \dfrac{g}{9},$

which is the acceleration that none of the given choices offer. Also, the acceleration of the two blocks is the same, because if it weren't, the difference in the instantaneous velocities of the objects would cause the string to break. Therefore, these two reasons make us decide that none of the choices are correct.

Heat transfer between two substances is affected by specific heat and the

IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is D. Amount of time and area of physical contact between the substances.

Explanation:

Heat transfer refers to the flow of thermal energy or heat between two or more objects. This process involves multiple factors and implies heat from the hottest object goes to the coldest one until there is an equilibrium. To begin, heat transfer depends on the amount of thermal energy in the objects because objects must have a different amount of thermal energy for heat to flow.

Besides this, the amount of energy that flows depends on the time and the contact between the substances of objects. Indeed, objects need to be in contact or close to each other for heat to transfer, and the time needs to be enough for the process to occur. For example, if you place a pot over the fire just for a few seconds it is likely the heat transferred is minimal, which does not occur if you leave the pot more time. At the same time if the pot is in close contact with fire more heat will be transferred.-

A 10 g particle undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 2.0 mm and a maximum acceleration of magnitude 8.0 multiplied by 103 m/s2, an

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

a) $T=0.0031416s$

b) $v_{max}=6.283\frac{m}{s}$

c) $E=0.1974J$

d) $F=80N$

e) $F=40N$

Explanation:

1) Important concepts

Simple harmonic motion is defined as "the motion of a mass on a spring when it is subject to the linear elastic restoring force given by Hooke's Law (F=-Kx). The motion experimented by the particle is sinusoidal in time and demonstrates a single resonant frequency".

2) Part a

The equation that describes the simple armonic motion is given by $X=Acos(\omega t +\phi)$ (1)

And taking the first and second derivate of the equation (1) we obtain the velocity and acceleration function respectively.

For the velocity:

$\frac{dX}{dt}=v(t)=-A\omega sin(\omega t +\phi)$ (2)

For the acceleration

$\frac{d^2 X}{dt}=a(t)=-A\omega^2 cos(\omega t+\phi)$ (3)

As we can see in equation (3) the acceleration would be maximum when the cosine term would be -1 and on this case:

$A\omega^2=8x10^{3}\frac{m}{s^2}$

Since we know the amplitude A=0.002m we can solve for $\omega$ like this:

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{8000\frac{m}{s^2}}{0.002m}}=2000\frac{rad}{s}$

And we with this value we can find the period with the following formula

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2 \pi}{2000\frac{rad}{s}}=0.0031416s$

3) Part b

From equation (2) we see that the maximum velocity occurs when the sine function is euqal to -1 and on this case we have that:

$v_{max}=A\omega =0.002mx2000\frac{rad}{s}=4\frac{m rad}{s}=4\frac{m}{s}$

4) Part c

In order to find the total mechanical energy of the oscillator we can use this formula:

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_{max}=\frac{1}{2}(0.01kg)(6.283\frac{m}{s})^2=0.1974J$

5) Part d

When we want to find the force from the 2nd Law of Newton we know that F=ma.

At the maximum displacement we know that X=A, and in order to that happens $cos(\omega t +\phi)=1$ , and we also know that the maximum acceleration is given by::
