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

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

A jogger moves from a position x =
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in displacement of the jogger. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial displacement (d₁) = 4 m

Final displacement (d₂) = 16 m

Change in displacement (Δd) =?

Δd = d₂ – d₁

Δd = 16 – 4

Δd = 12 m

Finally, we shall determine the determine the average velocity. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in displacement (Δd) = 12 m

Time (t) = 4 s

Velocity (v) =?

v = Δd / t

v = 12 / 4

v = 3 m/s

Thus, the average velocity of the jogger is 3 m/s
