Answer : The force needed is 108 N.

Explanation :

Force : It is defined as the product of mass of an object and acceleration of an object.

Formula used :

$Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

Given:

Acceleration = $1.2m/s^2$

Mass = 90 kg

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$Force=90kg\times 1.2m/s^2$

$Force=108kg.m/s^2=108N$

The unit of force is, N or $kg.m/s^2$

Therefore, the force needed is 108 N.

∑F = ma = (90 kg)(1.2 m/s²) = 108 N = 100 N (1 significant digit)

Elanso [62]

The amount of dissolved oxygen in water may decrease because of the increase in organic matter in the water. Aquatic organisms breathe and use oxygen. Large amounts of oxygen are consumed by the decomposition of bacteria (when there are large amounts of dead matter to decompose, there will be a significant number of bacteria). Examples: dead organic matter (algae), wastewater, garden waste, oils and fats, all this results in a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the water.

ELEN [110]

Remember that the total velocity of the motion is the vector sum of the velocity you would have in still water and the stream. Always place the vectors carefully to be able to come up with an accurate sum vector.

A rocket passes you at a speed of 0.85c, and you measure its length to be 35.0 m. What is its measured length when at rest?

viktelen [127]

Answer:

66.4 m

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we can use the length contraction formula, which states that the length observed in the reference frame moving with the object (the rocket) is given by

$L=L_0 \sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}$

where

$L_0$ is the proper length (the length measured from an observer at rest)

v is the speed of the object (the rocket)

c is the speed of light

Here we know

v = 0.85c

L = 35.0 m

So we can re-arrange the equation to find the length of the rocket at rest:

$L_0 = \frac{L}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}}=\frac{35.0}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{0.85c}{c})^2}}=66.4 m$

Hii I need help ASAP with this physics question

Readme [11.4K]

Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m

This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.
