A force of 5N produces an acceleration of 8m/s2 on mass m1, and an acceleration of 24m/s2 on a mass m2. What acceleration would

kotykmax [81]

The acceleration that the same force will provide if both masses are tied together is; 6.0 m/s².

<h3>How to find the Acceleration?</h3>

We are given;

Force; F = 5 N

Acceleration of the first mass, a₁ = 8.0 m/s²

Acceleration of the second mass, a₂ = 24 m/s²

Formula for force is;

F = ma

Let us find both masses; m₁ and m₂.

m₁ = F/a₁

m₂ = F/a₂

Thus;

m₁ = 5/8 kg

m₂ = 5/24 kg

Total mass is; m = m₁ + m₂

m = 5/8 + 5/24

m = 15 + 5/24

m = 20/24 kg

Thus, acceleration if they are both tied together is;

a = F/m

a = 5/(20/24)

a = 6.0 m/s².

A 23.0 kg iron weightlifting plate has a volume of 2920 cm3 . what is the density of the iron plate in g/cm3?

yanalaym [24]

The first thing you should know for this case is that density is defined as the quotient between mass and volume:
D = M / V
In addition, you should keep in mind the following conversion:
1Kg = 1000g
Substituting the values we have:
D = (23.0 * 1000) / (2920) = 7.88 g / cm ^ 3
answer
the density of the iron plate is 7.88 g / cm ^ 3

(a) Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

<h2>a)Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun is 274.21 m/s²</h2><h2>b) Factor of increase in weight is 27.95</h2>

Explanation:

a) Acceleration due to gravity

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}$

Here we need to find acceleration due to gravity of Sun,

G = 6.67259 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

Mass of sun, M = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg

Radius of sun, r = 6.957 x 10⁸ m

Substituting,

$g=\frac{6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{(6.957\times 10^8)^2}\\\\g=274.21m/s^2$

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun = 274.21 m/s²

b) Acceleration due to gravity in earth = 9.81 m/s²

Ratio of gravity = 274.21/9.81 = 27.95

Weight = mg

Factor of increase in weight = 27.95

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is theown downwand with an iniial velocily of 29 us frm op of a building that is

Helen [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock will strike the ground $2.42s$ earlier than the dropped rock.

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

$y_{i}=300m$

$y_{f}=0m$
$v_{iD}=0m/s$
$v_{iT}=-29m/s$ , it is negative as is directed downward

<u>Time of the dropped Rock</u>

We can use $y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ , to find the total time of fall, so $0=300m-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})t_{D}^{2}}{2}$ , then clearing for $t_{D}$ .

$t_{D}=\sqrt[2]{\frac{300m}{4.9m/s^{2}}} =\sqrt[2]{61.22s^{2}} =7.82s$

<u>Time of the Thrown Rock</u>

We can use $y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}$ , to find the total time of fall, so $0=300-29t_{T}-\frac{(9.8)t_{T}^{2}}{2}$ , then, $0=-4.9t_{T}^{2}-29t_{T}+300$ , as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is $t_{T}=5.4s$

Finally, we can find how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground, so $t_{E}=t_{D}-t_{T}=7.82s-5.4s=2.42s$

True or False. The pressure inside a piston is the same in all directions.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pascal's law says that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. The pressure at any point in the fluid is equal in all directions.
