Answer:
2.5 m/s²
Explanation:
Given,
Initial speed ( u ) = 10 m/s
Final speed ( v ) = 20 m/s
Time ( t ) = 4 seconds
To find : Acceleration ( a ) = ?
Formula : -
a = ( v - u ) / t
a = ( 20 - 10 ) / 4
= 10 / 4
= 5 / 2
a = 2.5 m/s²
Therefore,
The acceleration of the scooter is 2.5 m/s²
Answer: b. Throw it directly away from the space station.
Explanation:
According to <u>Newton's third law of motion</u>, <em>when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.</em>
To understand it better:
Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the first.
So, if the astronaut throws the wrench away from the space station (in the opposite direction of the space station), according to Newton's third law, she will be automatically moving towards the station and be safe.
Answer:
Net force on the block is 32 N.
Acceleration of the object is 6.4 m/s².
Explanation:
Let the acceleration of the object be 
m/s².
Given:
Mass of the block is, 
Force of pull is, 
Frictional force on the block is, 
The free body diagram of the object is shown below.
From the figure, the net force in the forward direction is given as:
Now, from Newton's second law of motion, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. So,
Therefore, the acceleration of the object in the forward direction is 6.4 m/s².
