A body is moving with an acceleration of 60 m/s^2(square).If the force applied to the body is 4200N.Calculate its mass.​
Pavel [41]

Hello, for this use the <u>2nd law of Newton:</u>

F = ma

Replacing:

4200 N = m * 60 m/s^2

Resolving:

4200 N / 60 m/s^2 = m

70 kg = m

The mass is <u>70 kg</u>

Why the spinner of a washing machine is made to spin at a very high speed
Serga [27]

Answer:

Once rinsed, the inner drum starts to spin at high speed to remove any remaining water. This water goes out through the small holes in the inner drum into the outer drum before the pump removes any remaining water, and your clothes are ready to be taken out to dry

What is the wavelength of a wave that has a speed of 3 km/s and a frequency of 12 Hz? A. 36 km B. 3.6 km C. 0.25 km D. 4 km
butalik [34]

Answer:

c. 0.25km

Explanation:

v=f x wavelength

3000 = 12 x wavelength

wavelength = 3000/12 = 250m

250m to km

To convert m to km, we divide by 1000

250/1000 =0.25km

wavelength = 0.25km

As part of an interview for a summer job with the Coast Guard, you are asked to help determine the search area for two sunken sh
MrMuchimi

Answer:37^{\circ} North of west

Explanation:

Given

40,000-ton luxury line traveling 20 knots towards west and

60,000 ton freighter traveling towards North with 10 knots

suppose v is the common velocity after collision

conserving momentum in west direction

20\times 40,000=(20,000+60,000)v\cos \theta

suppose the final velocity makes \theta angle with x axis

v\cos \theta =10----1

Conserving Momentum in North direction

10\times 60,000=80,000\times v\sin\theta

v\sin \theta =\frac{15}{2}----2

divide 1 and 2

\tan \theta =\frac{3}{4}

\theta =37^{\circ}

so search in the area 37^{\circ} North of west to find the ship

10. Almost three-quarters of household energy use is due to the following:
Arturiano [62]

Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

Explanation:

1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.
