<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>

A diver shines a flashlight upward from beneath the water (n = 1.33) at a 32.7° angle to the vertical. At what angle does the li
suter [353]

Answer:

45.93°

Explanation:

The angle of incidence is given as 32.7°

The refractive index of the water that is n_1=1.33

Refractive index of the air that is n_2=1 (because the refractive index of air is 1 )

We have to find the angle at which the light leave the water means angle of refraction

So according to snell's law n_1sini=n_2sinr

1.33sin32.7=1\times sinr

sinr=0.7185

r =45.93°

So the light leave the water at an angle of 45.93°

1. Two blocks travel along a level frictionless surface. Block A is initially moving to the right at 5.0 m/s, while block B is i
ad-work [718]

Answer: 2.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of block A  is m_a=2\ kg

mass of block B is m_b=3\ kg

The initial velocity of block A u_a=5\ m/s

the initial velocity of block B is u_b=0

After collision velocity of block A is v_a=1\ m/s

Conserving momentum

m_au_a+m_bu_b=m_av_a+m_bv_b\\\\2\times 5+3\times0=2\times 1+3\times v_b\\\\v_b=\dfrac{8}{3}=2.67\ m/s

The momentum of block A after the collision is P_a=2\times 1=2\ kg.m/s

Therefore, there is no change in sign.

A student jumps off a sled toward the NORTH after it stops at the bottom of an icy hill. Based on Newton's third law of motion,
zhuklara [117]

When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.
