Newton's 2nd law of motion . . . . . Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by (mass), and you have

Acceleration  =  (force) / (mass)

We know the force and mass for this truck, so we can fillum in:

Acceleration = (500 N) / (3,000 kg)  =  0.167 m/s²  .

Which scientist thought that the atom was the smallest particle in the universe?
Sidana [21]
<span>The scientist thought that the atom was the smallest particle in the universe is John Dalton. The answer is letter B. He established the atomic theory which consists of five; elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms, atoms of different element have different sizes, mass and physic – chemical properties, atoms cannot be divided further, destroyed or created, atoms can combine to form compounds and in chemical reaction, atoms can be combined, separated or rearranged. J.J. Thompson discovered the electrons in the atom. Ernest Rutherford discovered the half – life of an atom and Neils Bohr explain the quantum mechanics.</span>

Plz help........................
hoa [83]

Answer:

The correct wording is

  1. Pressure increases with the depth of the fluid.
  2. A plane's engines produce thrust to push the plane forward.
  3. A fluid can be a liquid or a gas.
  4. A hydraulic device uses Pascal's principle to lift or move objects.
  5. lift is the upward force exerted on objects by fluids.

Explanation:

1. As you go deeper into a fluid,<em> there is more of it on top of you; </em>therefore, the pressure excreted on you is greater.

2. A plane's engines pushes the air in opposite direction, which according to newton's third law, produces necessary force to move the plane forward.

3.  <em>A fluid has no fixed shape,</em> and it deforms under the influence of external forces applied—liquid and gases fit into this definition.

4. Pascal's principle <em>says that pressure applied on one region of the fluid must equal pressure transmitted to another region of the same fluid</em>. This principle is used in a hydraulic device to exert forces on fluids to lift objects that would otherwise be difficult to move.

5. By definition, the upward force exerted by the fluids on objects is the lift.

A student has a displacement of 304 m north in 180 s. What was the student's average velocity?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

v = 1.69 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Displacement of the student is 304 m due North and it takes 180 s.

We need to find the student's average velocity. Using formula of velocity.

Velocity = displacement/time

v=\dfrac{304\ m}{180\ s}\\\\v=1.69\ m/s

Hence, the student's average velocity is 1.69 m/s.

Two cats are sitting on a 30 m hill. One cat
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Cat with 6 kg sitting on a 30 meter hill has greater potential energy.

Explanation:

gravitational potential energy (J) = mass (kg) × gravitational field × height (m)

<h3 /><h3><u>Note</u>:</h3>

gravitational field in Earth is 10 N/kg = <u>fixed unit</u>

<h3 /><h3><u>Given</u>:</h3>

1st Cat: 4 kg

2nd Cat: 6 kg

Both of their height is 30 meters.

<h3><u>Solve for g.p.e</u>:</h3>

1st cat = mgh = 4 × 10 × 30 = 1200 Joules

2nd cat = mgh = 6 × 10 × 30 = 1800 Joules
