Maybe the picture helps. The blue block represents the cart with a mass of 3 kg. The person(black block) is pulling the cart to the right with a force F so that the acceleration a is 2 m/s². According to Newton's 2nd law: F = m*a.

<u>Answer:</u> The tension in the string is 6 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

Tension is defined as the pulling force that is applied on a string, chain etc.. Force is also defined as the mass multiplied by the acceleration of the object.

Mathematically,

F=ma

where,

F = tension or force exerted in the string

m = mass of the cart pulling the string = 3.00 kg

a = acceleration of the string = 2.00m/s^2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

F=3.00kg\times 2.00m/s^2\\\\F=6N

Hence, the tension in the string is 6 N

[:] Answer [:]

D) Temperature

You measure temperature with a thermometer. You can use it to measure you r temperature if you're sick, or you use it to measure the temperature outside. A, B, and C do not work with a thermometer. You would use a different device for those.

Shareen finds that when she drives her motorboat upstream she can travelwith a speed of only 8 m/s, while she moves with a speed
ANEK [815]

Let vb be the velocity of the motorboat and let vs be the velocity of the stream.

We know that when she drives upstream the velocity is 8 m/s, in this scenario the velocities point in opposite directions, then we have the equations:

v_b-v_s=8

When she drives downstream the velocites point in the same direction then we have the equation:

v_b+v_s=12

hence we have the system of equations:

\begin{gathered} v_b-v_s=8 \\ v_b+v_s=12 \end{gathered}

Solving the first equation for the velocity of the boat we have:

v_b=8+v_s

Plugging this in the second equation we have:

\begin{gathered} 8+v_s+v_s=12 \\ 2v_s=4 \\ v_s=\frac{4}{2} \\ v_s=2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the velocity of the stream is 2 m/s

If a 1.0-kg-mass block is on the left cap, how much total mass must be placed on the right cap so that the caps equilibrate at e
Dennis_Churaev [7]

<span>The total mass that should be placed in the right cap so that the caps equilibrate at equal height is also 1 kg. if equilibrium should be maintained the force in each side should cancel out, so to balance a 1kg mass, a 1 kg mass should also be place on the opposite direction</span>
