Luis and Aisha conducted an experiment. They exerted different forces on four objects. Their results are shown in the table.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Object 3 has greatest acceleration.

Explanation:

Objects               Mass                                Force

1                            10 kg                               4 N              

2                           100 grams                       20 N

3                            10 grams                         4 N

4                             1 kg                                 20 N

Acceleration of object 1,

a_1=\dfrac{F_1}{m_1}\\\\a_1=\dfrac{4}{10}\\\\a_1=0.4\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 2,

a_2=\dfrac{F_2}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{20}{0.1}\\\\a_2=200\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 3,

a_3=\dfrac{F_3}{m_3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{4}{0.01}\\\\a_3=400\ m/s^2

Acceleration of object 4,

a_4=\dfrac{F_4}{m_4}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{20}{1}\\\\a_3=20\ m/s^2

It is clear that the acceleration of object 3 is 400\ m/s^2 and it is greatest of all. So, the correct option is (3).

A painter stands a horizontal platform which has a mass of 20kg and is 5m long, the platform is suspended by two vertical ropes
Lerok [7]

Answer:

R = 715.4 N

L =  166.6 N

Explanation:

ASSUME the painter is standing right of center

Let L be the left rope tension

Let R be the right rope tension

Sum moments about the left end to zero. Assume CCW moment is positive

R[5] - 20(9.8)[5/2] - 70(9.8)[5/2 + 2] = 0

R = 715.4 N

Sum moments about the right end to zero

20(9.8)[5/2] + 70(9.8)[5/2 - 2] - L[5] = 0

L =  166.6 N

We can verify by summing vertical forces

116.6 + 715.4 - (70 + 20)(9.8) ?=? 0

                                             0 = 0  checks

If the assumption about which side of center the paint stood is incorrect, the only difference would be the values of L and R would be swapped.

The planet Mercury takes 0.24 sidereal years to go around the sun. What is the distance from the center of Mercury to the center
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

5.77×10¹⁰ m

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying

Kepler's third law

P² = d³...................... Equation 1

Where P = Planet's period, d = distance between the center of the planet and the sun.

make d the subject of the formula n equation 1

d = \sqrt[3]{P^{2}  }.................. Equation 2

Given: P = 0.24 sidereal.

Substitute the value of P into equation 2

d = \sqrt[3]{0.24^{2} }

d = 0.386 Au

d = 0.386×1.496×10¹¹

d = 5.77×10¹⁰ m
