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  .

What force in Newton is required to accelerate a car starting from rest to 20 m/s in 15 seconds if the mass of the car is 2500 k
Lyrx [107]

We will solve this question using the second law of motion which states that force is directly equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

\sf \: F=ma

Where,

  • F is force
  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

In our case,

  • F = ?
  • m = 2500 kg
  • a = 20m/s

\tt \: F_{net}  = 2500 \times 20 \\   \tt= 50000

<em>Thus, The force of 50000 Newton is required to accelerate a car of 2500 kg...~</em>

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:3.77 T/s

Explanation:

Given

Area of cross-section=3.7\times 3.7 cm^2=13.69 cm^2

N=no of turns=61

Resistance=R=8 \Omega

current (i)=0.04 A

emf induced=i\times R=0.04\times 8=0.32 V

emf induced e=NA\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}

0.32=62\times 13.69\times 10^{-4}\times \frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} B}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{0.32\times 10^4}{848.78}=3.77 T/s
