<h2>Answer:</h2>

Force is equal to mass times acceleration

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to second law of Newton when a force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in that body and that acceleration is dependent upon the mass of that body. If the mass of the body is more then more force is required to produce an acceleration and vice versa. Mathematically this can be written as

F = m x a

Hey there!
The Second Law of Motion by Newton is f = ma, and that means the force of an object is defined by its mass times its acceleration.
Therefore your answer is e.
Hope this helps!

Does sound travels through your skull to your ear when you speak ? If yes then how ?

Maksim231197 [3]

Sound travels through waves, more specifically, through vibrations. They do not go from skull to ear, but they can go from ear to brain, or skull to brain. Ear to brain is simply vibrations traveling from outer ear, to inner ear, to the brain. Skull to brain, otherwise known as "bone conduction", has the vibrations hitting the skull, then to the temproal bone, then to the inner ear where the brain picks it up.

A rectangular certificate has a perimeter of 32 inches. Its area is 63 square inches. What are the dimensions of the certificate

irina1246 [14]

Perimeter = 2 ( L + W )
32 = 2 ( L + W )
16 = L + W
L = 16 - W

Area = L W
63 = L W
63 = (16-W) W
63 = 16W - W²
-W² + 16 W - 63 = 0
By factorizing W = 9 or W = 7
So the dimensions are 7 and 9

A 16.0 kg child on roller skates, initially at rest, rolls 2.0 m down an incline at an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. If th

enyata [817]

The kinetic energy of the child at the bottom of the incline is 106.62 J.

The given parameters:

<em>Mass of the child, m = 16 kg</em>
<em>Length of the incline, L = 2 m</em>
<em>Angle of inclination, θ = 20⁰</em>

The vertical height of fall of the child from the top of the incline is calculated as;

$sin(20) = \frac{h}{2} \\\\h = 2 \times sin(20)\\\\h = 0.68 \ m$

The gravitational potential energy of the child at the top of the incline is calculated as;

$P.E = mgh\\\\P.E = 16 \times 9.8 \times 0.68\\\\P.E = 106.62 \ J$

Thus, based on the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy of the child at the bottom of the incline is 106.62 J since no energy is lost to friction.

Light of wavelength 630 nm falls on two slits and produces an interference pattern in which the third-order bright red fringe is

goblinko [34]

Answer:

d $\frac{x}{l}$ = m× λ⇒ d = λ ×m×l / x

= 630× $10^{-9}$ m × 3×3m/ 45× $10^{-3}$ m

= 1.26× $10^{-4}$ m

Explanation:

the above calculation is based on Young’s double slit experiment where the two slits provide two coherent light sources which results either constructive interference or destructive interference when passing through a double slit.
