What is the acceleration rate of an object if the amount of force applied on the object is 75 Newtons and the object has a mass

of 15 kilogram?
Physics

Recall Newton's second law:

F = ma

F is the force exerted on the object.

m is the mass of the object.

a is the acceleration of the object.

Given values:

F = 75 N

m = 15 kg

Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for a:

75 = 15×a

<h3>a = m/s²</h3>

A. How many calories are needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 °C?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

A) 1 cal

B) 80 cal

C) 540 cal

Explanation:

A)

The amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of a certain mass of a substance is given by

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the change in temperature

In this problem:

m = 1 g is the mass of water

C=1 cal/g^{\circ}C is  the specific heat capacity of water

\Delta T=1^{\circ}C is the change in temperature

So, the heat needed is

Q=(1)(1)(1)=1 cal

B)

For a solid substance at its melting point, the amount of heat needed to melt completely the substance is given by

Q=m\lambda_f

where

m is the mass of the substance

\lambda_f is the specific latent heat of fusion of the substance

In this problem:

- The ice is already at melting point, 0 °C

- Mass of the ice: m=1g

- Specific latent heat of fusion of ice: \lambda_f=80 cal/g

So, the heat needed is

Q=(1)(80)=80 cal

C)

For a liquid substance at its boiling point, the amount of heat needed to boil completely the substance is given by

Q=m\lambda_v

where

m is the mass of the substance

\lambda_v is the specific latent heat of vaporization of the substance

In this problem:

- The water is already at boiling point, 100 °C

- Mass of the water: m=1g

- Specific latent heat of vaporization of water: \lambda_v=540 cal/g

So, the heat needed is

Q=(1)(540)=540 cal

What is the resultant of the two vectors shown?
Ksju [112]

Answer

correct answer is C

Head-to-tail method

Here head-to-tail method is employed to determine resultant of vectors.

Let horizontal component be 1 and let vertical component be 2

To add these two vectors. Move vector 2 until its tail touches the head of 1. The tail of resultant of these two vectors touch the tail of vector 1 and head of resultant vector will touch the head of vector 2.
