A dog has a mass of 20 kg. If the dog is pushed across the ice with a force of 40 N, what is its acceleration?
olasank [31]

Answer:

The acceleration is 2 m/s2.

Explanation:

We calculate the acceleration (a), with the data of mass (m) and force (F), through the formula:

F = m x a  ---> a= F/m

a = 40 N/20 kg                   <em>  1N= 1 kg x m/s2</em>

a= 40 kgx m/s2/ 20 kg

<em>a= 2 m/s2</em>

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. If this is true then why are we always
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The second law of thermodynamics states in an isolated system, the entropy (the amount of thermal energy that cannot be converted into mechanical work, also known as the amount of disorder) always increases, therefore, an isolated system always require an external input (new sources) of energy for there to be orderliness or for the available energy of the system to remain constant or increase

Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body while holding a 2.0 kg mass in each hand. She then spins aroun
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

a.) L = 2.64 kgm^2/s

b.) V = 4.4 m/s

Explanation: Jessica stretches her arms out 0.60 m from the center of her body. This will be considered as radius.

So,

Radius r = 0.6 m

Mass M = 2 kg

Velocity V = 1.1 m/s

Angular momentum L can be expressed as;

L = MVr

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

L = 2 × 1.1 × 0.6 = 1.32kgm^2s^-1

the combined angular momentum of the masses will be 2 × 1.32 = 2.64 kgm^2s-1

b. If she pulls her arms into 0.15 m,

New radius = 0.15 m

Using the same formula again

L = 2( MVr)

2.64 = 2( 2 × V × 0.15 )

1.32 = 0.3 V

V = 1.32/0.3

V = 4.4 m/s

Her new linear speed will be 4.4 m/s
