<span>Answer: The acceleration of 10 kg object is greater than that of 18 kg object.

Explanation:
According to Newton's Second law:
F = ma --- (A)

Let's find the acceleration for both 10 kg and 18 kg objects!
The net force on both of these masses = F = 20N

(1) Acceleration of 10 kg object
Mass = m = 10 kg
Plug in the values in equation (A):
20 = 10 * a
Acceleration = a = 2 m/s^2

(2) Acceleration of 18 kg object
Mass = m = 18 kg
Plug in the values in equation (A):

20 = 18 * a
Acceleration = a = 1.11 m/s^2


2 > 1.11; therefore, 10 kg object has the higher acceleration compared to the acceleration of the 18 kg object.</span>

Explanation:

The expression of the applied force in terms of mass and acceleration by using Newton's second law is as follows;

F= ma

Here, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration of the object.

Calculate the acceleration of a 10 kg object acted upon with net force of 20 N in the above expression.

Put m= 10 kg and F= 20 N in the above expression.

20= (10)a

a= 2 m/s^2

Calculate the acceleration of a 18 kg object acted upon with net force of 20 N in the above expression.

Put m= 18 kg and F= 20 N.

20= (18)a

a= 1.11 m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of a 10 kg object acted upon with net force of 20 N is greater than the acceleration of a 18 kg object acted upon with net force of 20 N.

What properties of radio waves makes them suitable for sending signals in mountainous regions?
marusya05 [52]

one of the property of radio waves is that they have long wavelength. due to their long wavelength , they undergo diffraction around the mountains and thus the waves spread around the mountain. this makes them eligible to be used for  long distance communication. they can coded and decoded also . that is why they are used in television and radio system
