Let us use the formula for Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Net force = Mass*Acceleration
Net force = Applied Force - μ*Normal Force
where μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

Normal Force = Force due to gravity = mass*gravity
Normal Force = (210 kg)(9.81 m/s²) =<em> 2,060.1 N</em>

Then,
Net force = 4100 - 0.38*2060.1 = 3317.162 N

3317.162 N = (210 kg)(a)
Solving for acceleration,
<em>a = 15.796 m/s²</em>

If a cup of water has holes in it than why does no water come out when when it is falling?
quester [9]

Because the acceleration of gravity is the acceleration of gravity.
It doesn't matter what the mass of a falling object is, and it  doesn't
matter whether a falling object is solid or liquid.  ALL falling objects
fall with the same acceleration, reach the same speed, and hit the
ground at the same time.

If there was no air in the way, then a feather, a school bus, and a
battleship would accelerate at the same rate, fall together and hit
the ground at the same time.

When you drop a cup full of water that has holes in it, the cup and
the water fall with the same acceleration, reach the same speed,
and hit the floor at the same time.  Then, THAT's the time to go
and get the mop.

1) The forces of molecules is how strong they are being held together. Now, we know that solid is the last one, because it's particles are held CLOSELY and VERY TIGHTLY together, which is why it has a definite shape.And last of all, a gas's particles are held freely, which is why it has no shape. So the answer would be:- gas, liquid, solid

3) The state of matter that does not have a definite shape, but has a definite volume is a liquid. So the answer is :- liquid

7) False, an endothermic reaction is when it absorbs energy, and as we know that in a chemical reaction as the following, it tends to be an exothermic reaction, meaning that is releases energy. So the answer is:- FALSE

8) Gases have particles that are far apart (freely) and move fast. So the answer is:- They are moving very fast and are far apart.<span> </span>

You are in a spacecraft moving at a constant velocity. The front thruster rocket fires incorrectly, causing the craft to slow do
Alchen [17]

Answer:

It continue to move forward at a constant velocity which will be slower than before the front thruster was fired.

Explanation:

Before the front thruster was fired, the spacecraft was already moving at a particular velocity.

After the malfunction, the front thruster is fired and then the force exerted by that front thruster slows the spacecraft down, as we are told.

By using the rear thruster to exert a force equal to that from the front thrusters, a force equal in magnitude to that of the front thrusters is added, cancelling out the effect of the front thrusters. Because the spacecraft is already moving at a slower speed at this point compared to the beginning, it continues to move at that speed.
