Two scientists interpret the same set of data differently. How would the scientific community deal with this problem?

The correct answer would be D. A new experiment would be needed to be done in order to test the conclusions. In science there is no authority, data is the only thing that matters. So if we have two different conclusions from the same date the only solution is to perform more tests and more experiments to see what is correct.

A 2 kg mass is free falling in the negative Y direction when a 10 N force is exerted in the minus X direction. What is the accel

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The mass's acceleration is 5 m/s^2 in the minus X direction and 9,8 m/s^2 in the minus Y direction.

Explanation:

By applying the second Newton's law in the X and Y direction we found that in the minus X direction an external force of 10 N is exerted, while in the minus Y direction the gravity acceleration is acting:

X-direction balance force: $-10 [N] = m.ax$

Y-direction balance force: $-m*9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} = m.ay$

Where ax and ay are the components of the respective acceleration and m is the mass. By solving for each acceleration:

$ax=(-10 [N]) / m$

$ay=-m*9,8\frac{m}{s^2} / m$

Note that for the second equation above the mass is cancelled and, the Y direction acceleration is minus the gravity acceleration:

$ay=-9,8\frac{m}{s^2}$

For the x component aceleration we must replace the Newton unit:

$N =\frac{kg.m}{s^2}$

$ax= -10 \frac{kg.m}{s^2} / (2 kg)$

$ax= - 5 \frac{m}{s^2}$
