Answer:10m/s^2

Explanation:

Mathematically,

Force =mass ×acceleration

Given force ( F )=20N

Mass ( m )=2.0kg

Acceleration ( a ) =?

Substitute them into the equation

20N =2kg ×a

Making a the subject by dividing through by 2

2kga/2 =20N/2kg

a =20N/2kg

a=10N/kg^1

a=10m/s^2

Answer:

10 m/s^2

Explanation:

Equation: F = ma.

a = acceleration

m = mass

F = force

Because we are trying to find acceleration instead of force we want to rearrange the equation to solve for a which is F/m = a.

F = 20

m = 2

a = ?

a = F/m

a = 20/2

a = 10 m/s^2

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Hi!


The correct option would be A) Mendel’s genetics states laws that are now part of the theory of biological evolution.


When Darwin proposed the idea of biological evolution, which revolved around the concept that favorable genes are naturally selected into a species to ensure survival, his theory was criticized as during that time there was the idea that individual traits of two parents would present themselves as a blend in the offspring.

Gregor Mendel's theory of inheritance supported Darwin's idea as it dealt with the transmission of traits in generations through entities called genes, which were present in pairs for a particular trait.


Hope this helps!

You place a 55.0 kg box on a track that makes an angle of 28.0 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction b
Radda [10]

Answer:

\theta=34 \textdegree

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=55kg

Angle \theta =28.0

Coefficient of static friction \alpha =0.680

Generally, the equation for Newtons second Law is mathematically given by

For

\sum_y=0

N=mgcos \theta

for

\sum_x=0

F_{s}=mgsin\theta

Where

F_{s}=\alpha*N\\\\F_{s}=\alpha*m*gcos \theta

F_{s}=0.68*55*9.8*cos 28

F_{s}=323.62N

Therefore

\alpha mgcos \theta=mg sin \theta

\theta=tan^{-1}(0.68)

\theta=34 \textdegree
