A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 10 m/s^2. What will the acceleration be if the for

<span>This can be obtained by following the Newton's Second Law of motion. It states that the acceleration of an object which is produced by a net force is directly related to the net force and inversely related to the mass of the object. We use the equation:

a = F/m
10 = F/2 / 2m
10 = F/4m
40 = F/m

So, the acceleration of the system is 4 times the original conditions.</span>

patriot [66]
F=ma so a=F/m

ax=180/270=0.67m/s^2
ay=390/270=1.44m/s^2

Magnitude = sqrt((0.67^2)+(1.44^2))=1.59m/s^2

Direction- Tan(x)=0.67/1.44=0.47 Tan^-1(x)=25 degrees

A generator contains a coil that spins to produce an electric current. How is energy transformed by using a generator
LiRa [457]

<u>Answer </u>

Mechanical energy ⇒ Electric energy

<u>Explanation </u>

A generator is used to produce electric energy. When he coils are made to rotate/spin, is makes the mechanical part. This coils rotates inside a magnetic fields inducing current in the coils. When current starts flowing in the coils, it forms the electrical part.

So, on the generator the energy changes are from mechanical to electrical energy.
