By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m

The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N

The mass is 2kg.

Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2

The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Transactional process

Explanation:

Because communication involves two or more people acting in both sender and receiver roles and because their messages are dependent on and influenced by those of their partner means that communication is a transactional process i.e. a give and take process.

If the sender relays a message and the receiver does not reply or reply not taking cognizance of the sender's message, communication has not taken place.

For example, if consider this.

Sender: How old are you?

Reciever: My Cat is Red.

The response of the receiver is not in tune with the sender and so communication has not taken place.

the force is found by multiplying the mass of an object by velocity at which it travels. true or false
Katarina [22]

False.

Force is found by multiplying mass of an object by its acceleration.

F = mass * acceleration

In a maneuver, the jet comes in for a landing on solid ground with a speed of 115 m/s, and its acceleration can have a maximum m
V125BC [204]

Answer:

17.1130952381 s

No

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 115 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -6.72 m/s² (negative as it is decelerating)

From the equations of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{0-115}{-6.72}\\\Rightarrow t=17.1130952381\ s

The minimum time required to stop is 17.1130952381 s

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-115^2}{2\times -6.72}\\\Rightarrow s=984.00297619\ m

The distance that is required for the jet to stop is 0.98400297619 km which is greater than 0.8 km. So, the jet cannot land on a small tropical island airport.

A truck is moving 14m/s to the south. If it takes the truck 20 seconds to reduce its velocity to 10m/s south. What is is acceler
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

-0,2 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration = α = (V-V₀)/t

α = (10-14)/20 = -0,2 m/s²
