What effect does a tripling of the net force have upon the acceleration of the object?

Physics
1 answer:
dsp733 years ago
4 0
The formula of net Force is:F = mawhere m is the mass of the objecta is the acceleration of the object
thus, if we triple the net force applied to the object:
3F = maa = 3F / m
The acceleration is also tripled since the force is directly proportional to the acceleration.

Which statement describes the role of a resistor in an electrical circuit?
Arisa [49]

The role of a resistor in an electrical circuit is to <u>hinder the movement of charge through a circuit</u>

Explanation:

A charge is carried through a wire by current (indicated as <em>I</em> in physics S.I connotation). Higher current means the rate at which the charge is flowing through the wire is fast. High resistance of the wire means the charge flows with difficulty hence slower. Resistance is given by the formulae;

R = V/I whereby;

R = resistance

V = voltage

I = current

As you can observe <em>R</em> (resistance) is inversely proportional to<em> I </em>(current). Meaning the higher the resistance the lower the current.

Use Kepler’s third law and the orbital motion of Earth to determine the mass of the Sun. The average distance between Earth and
Anna11 [10]

Kepler’s third law formula: T^2=4pi^2*r^3/(GM)

We’re trying to find M, so:

M=4pi^2*r^3/(G*T^2)

M=4pi^2*(1.496 × 10^11 m)^3/((6.674× 10^-11N*m^2/kg^2)*(365.26days)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))

Let’s work with the units:

(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))=

=(m^3*kg^2)/(N*m^2*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/(N*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/((kg*m/s^2)*days^2)

=(kg)/(days^2/s^2)

=(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

So:

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

Now we need to convert days to seconds in order to cancel them:

1 day=24 hours=24*60minutes=24*60*60s=86400s

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/((86400s)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/( 86400^2*s^2)

M=1.48× 10^40kg/86400^2

M=1.98x10^30kg

The closest answer is 1.99 × 10^30

(it may vary a little with rounding – the difference is less than 1%)

Sonar is a device that uses reflected sound waves to measure underwater depths. If a sonar signal has a frequency of 288 Hz and
mart [117]

Answer:

5.03 m

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is given by

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency of the wave

For the sonar signal in this problem,

f=288 Hz

v=1.45\cdot 10^3 m/s

Substituting into the equation, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{1.45\cdot 10^3 m/s}{288 Hz}=5.03 m

George walks to a friend's house. He walks 850 meters north before he realizes he walked too far.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

<h2>44 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

In this problem we are expected to calculate the velocity of Georges movements.

Given data

Total distance covered by  George= 850+250= 1100 meters

Time taken  by  George to cover the total distance= 25 seconds

We know that velocity is, v= distance/ time

Therefore substituting our data into the expression for velocity we have

v= 1100/ 25= 44 m/s

Hence the velocity in m/s is 44

During an observation, it was noticed that light diffracts as it passes through small slits in a barrier. What does this evidenc
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It reveals that light is a wave

Explanation:

Diffraction is the property of a wave in which there is a bending of the wave about the corners of an obstacle or aperture into the geometrical shadow of the obstacle or aperture.

This simply implies that a wave bends or spreads out when it passes through openings. Since the light diffracts through small slits and diffraction has been shown to occur in water waves and sound waves, this property of diffraction can only be characteristic of a wave and thus, this evidence reveals that light is a wave.
