Using the Equation:
                                 v² = vi² + 2 · a · s    → Eq.1
where,
v = final velocity 
vi = initial velocity 
a = acceleration 
s = distance 

<span><span>We know that vi = 0 because the ball was at rest initially.
</span><span>
Therefore,

Solving Eq.1 for acceleration,
 
</span></span> v² = vi² + 2 · a · s
 v² = 0 + 2 · a · s
 v² = 2 · a · s
Rearranging for a,
a = v ²/2·<span>s
Substituting the values,
a = 46</span>²/2×1<span> 
a = 1058 m/s</span>² 

<span>Now applying Newton's 2nd law of motion,

<span>F = ma
   = 0.145</span>×<span>1058

F = 153.4 N</span>

Suppose electric power is supplied from two independent sources which work with probabilities 0.4, 0.5, respectively. if both so
sattari [20]

Answer:

The answers to the questions are as follows

a)  k = 0, P = 0.3

k = 1, P = 0.5

k = 0, P = 0.2

b) The probability that enough power will be available is 0.5.

Explanation:

To solve the question we write the parameters as follows

Probability that the first power source works = P(A) = 0.4

Probability that the second power source works = P(B) = 0.5

When both sources are supplying power  we have the probability = 1

If non of them is producing the probability = 0

a) The probability that exactly k sources work for k=0,1,2 is given by

For k = 0, probability = (1- P(A))× (1- P(B)) = 0.6 × 0.5 =0.3

Therefore the probabilities that exactly 0 source work  = 0.3

for k = 1 we have the probability = P(A)(1-P(B)) + P(B)(1-P(A)

= 0.4(1-0.5)+0.5(1-0.4) = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5

The probabilities that exactly 1 source work  = 0.5

for k = 2 we have the probability given by = P(A) × P(B) = 0.4 × 0.5 = 0.2

Therefore the  probability that exactly 2 sources work  = 0.2

b)  The probability that enough power will be available is

0 × P(k = 0) + 0.6 × P(k = 1) + 1 × P(k = 2)

0 × 0.2 + 0.6 × 0.5 + 1 × 0.2 = 0.5

The probability that enough power will be available is 0.5.

What will be net force be if net forces are unbalanced?
malfutka [58]

Answer: If the forces on an object are balanced, the net force is zero. If the forces are unbalanced forces, the effects don't cancel each other. Any time the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the net force is not zero, and the motion of the object changes.
