A resultant force of magnitude 15 N acts on a body of mass 250 g. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration

Physics
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a=60

Explanation:

F=ma

F=15N

m=250g convert to kg

m=250/1000

m=0.25kg

applying F=ma

15=0.25*a

a=15/0.25

a=60

Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where,

m_1 = mass of ball

m_2 = mass of the person

u_1 = Velocity of ball before collision

u_2 = Velocity of the person before collision

v_1 = velocity of ball afer collision

v_2= velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

v_1 = v_2

m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2

Re-arrenge to find v_2,

v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}

Our values are,

m_1= 0.425kg

u_1= 12m/s

m_2= 68.5kg

u_2= 0m/s

Substituting,

v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}

v_2 = 0.074m/s

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

A light bulb has a voltage of 36 and a current of 8 A. Calculate the resistance of the light bulb
timurjin [86]
R = U : I. U is in Voltage and I is in Ampère. That gives you R = 36 : 8 = 4,5 Ohm

How does NaOH form a basic solution when it dissolves in water
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
It decomposes into CH3COO- and H+ when dissolved in water. The H+ ions react with the water molecules to generate H3O+, making the solution acidic. When NaOH is added to water, it separates into Na+ and OH-. The sodiums have little effect on the solution, but the hydroxyls make it more basic.

What is the answer to this definition ?
Paul [167]

Newton's 2nd law of motion is:    <em>Force</em> = (mass) x (acceleration) .

Force is the only way to change an object's velocity.
