How is an objects acceleration affected by its mass and the forces acting on it

If the force of an object is going against the way the object is going it will move slower. The mass makes the object move slower as well.

How do you find the speed of an object given its mass and kinetic energy (what is the formula)?

   v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ; 
        
and solve for "v".

______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is:  KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
  
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note:  Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction";  however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since:  a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to                                          the "speed"; 
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  ↔  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; 
___________________________________________________

→ We have:  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE)  ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
   
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ; 
___________________________________________________
    
           →   [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] /  [(½)* (m)]  = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
 to get: 
______________________________________________________
                           →   v²     =   (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
                     
                           →   v²     = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
                          →  √ (v²)  =  √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________

                          →     v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"]; 
       
and solve for "v".

Why are viruses hard to fight
ki77a [65]

Answer:Compared to other pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses are minuscule. And because they have none of the hallmarks of living things — a metabolism or the ability to reproduce on their own, for example — they are harder to target with drugs.

Birds which are famous for performing a ritualized mating dance
dlinn [17]
<span>Birds which famous for performing a ritualized mating dance are: The Grebes

Grebes most commonly live near a fresh water source.

They conducted this ritual because When two Grebes with opposite sex dances near each other, they will release some sort of pheromones that make them attracted to one another. </span>

A youngster having a mass of 50.0 kg steps off a 1.00 m high platform. If she keeps her legs fairly rigid and comes to rest in 1
attashe74 [19]

The average act on her during the deceleration is 4.47 meters per second.                                                                

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

youngster mass m = 50.0 kg

She steps off a 1.00 m high platform that is s = 1 meter

She comes to rest in the 10-meter second

<u>To Find</u>:

The average force and momentum

<u>Formulas</u>:

p = m * v

F * Δ t = Δ p

vf^2= vi^2+2as

<u>Solution</u>:

a = 9.8 m/s

vi = 0

vf^2= 0+2(9.8)(1)

vf^2 = 19.6

vf = 4.47 m/s .

Therefore the average force is 4.47 m/s.

A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra down a frictionless chute. It starts at a height of 1.69 m above the bottom of the chute with
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 6.94 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can find the speed at the bottom of the ramp using energy conservation

Starting point. Higher

            Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g h

Final point. Lower

            Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

            Em₀ = Em_{f}

            ½ m v₀² + m g h = ½ m v²

            v² = v₀² + 2 g h

             

Let's calculate

             v = √(1.23² + 2 9.8 1.69)

             v = 5.89 m / s

In the horizontal part we can use the relationship between work and the variation of kinetic energy

            W = ΔK

            -fr x = 0- ½ m v²  

               

Newton's second law

              N- W = 0

     

The equation for the friction is

               fr = μ N

               fr = μ m g

We replace

             μ m g x = ½ m v²

             x = v² / 2μ g

Let's calculate

            x = 5.89² / (2 0.255 9.8)

            x = 6.94 m
