Here's the formula for the distance covered by an accelerating body in some amount of time ' T '. This formula is incredibly simple but incredibly useful. It pops up so often in Physics that you really should memorize it:

D = 1/2 a T²

Distance = (1/2)·(acceleration)·(time²)

This question gives us the acceleration and the distance, and we want to find the time.

(9,000 m) = (1/2) (20 m/s²) (time²)

(9,000 m) = (10 m/s²) (time²)

Divide each side by 10 m/s²:

(9,000 m) / (10 m/s²) = (time²)

900 s² = time²

Square root each side:

<em>T = 30 seconds</em>

If the crate shown here is moving at a constant speed in a straight line and the force applied is 310 N, what is the magnitude o
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

f_k = 310N

the answer is A.

Explanation:

Using the laws of newton:

∑F = ma

where ∑F is the sumatory of forces acting in the system, m the mass and a the acelertion of the system.

Then, if the block is moving with constant velocity, its aceleration is equal to 0, so:

∑F = m(0)

∑F = 0

It means that:

F -f_k = 0

where F is the force applied and f_k is the friction force. Replacing the value of F, we get:

310N -f_k = 0

Finally, solving for f_k:

f_k = 310N

Sound waves, water waves, and light waves are all alike in that they all
Paha777 [63]
Sound and water waves are longitudinal waves, they require a medium to travel through and occilate particles 90 degrees to the wave motion
Light is a transverse wave. It doesnt require a medium to travel through.
All three reflect, refract and diffract


Light is difficult to think of because it acts in ways which waves cannot explain in some cirumstances. It acts like a particle (called photons) in some conditions, but acts like a normal sound or water wave does in others. Try not to get too caught up in light being a wave or a particle because even physists dont know how to explain it yet.
