The net force is the difference between upwards force and downwards force, so 53.7N-40N=13.7N=∑F. ∑F=ma, m=5.1kg, so a=13.7N/5.1kg.

What is the acceleration, in meters per second squared, of a 2,000,000-kilogram NASA rocket with an applied force of 20,000,000
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

10m/s^2

Explanation:

Force = mass x acceleration

Acceleration = force/ mass

= 20000000/2000000

=10m/s^2

What happens to the acceleration of an object if the net force that acts on it triples in magnitude?
poizon [28]

F=ma Force is equal to mass times acceleration.


So looking at the equation if mass stays the same but we make F three times larger then acceleration will become 3 times larger as well because the equation must remain equal on both sides.


just multiply both sides of the equation F=ma times 3. So 3xF=3x ma

The magnitude of the magnetic field at point P for a certain electromagnetic wave is 2.12 μT. What is the magnitude of the elect
valkas [14]

Answer:

The electric field is  E =  636 \ V/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The magnitude of magnetic field is B  =  2.12 \mu T  =  2.12*10^{-6} \ T

      The value for speed of light is  c =  3.0 *10^8 \ m/s

Generally the magnitude of the electric field at point P is

        E =  B * c

substituting values

         E =  2.12 *10^{-6} *  3.0 *10^{8}

         E =  636 \ V/m
