Starting from rest, a 4.0-kg body reaches a speed of 8.0 m/a in 20 s. What is te net force acting on the body?

1 answer:

5 0

The guy below is wrong!

F=ma
Where force = mass x acceleration

We dont have acceleration, a= change in velocity divided by the time taken.
a = v (final velocity) - u (initial) / t
a us 8-0 (at rest means u was 0) / 20 = 0.4

Using F=ma

F= mass x acceleration
F= 4 x 0.4
F=1.6 N

How are acceleration and speed related

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing.

Ricardo, of mass 80 kg, and Carmelita, who is lighter, are enjoying Lake Merced at dusk in a 30 kg canoe. When the canoe is at r

Deffense [45]

Answer:

m=57.65 kg

Explanation:

Given Data

Ricardo mass m₁=80 kg

Canoe mass m₂=30 kg

Canoe Length L= 3 m

Canoe moves x=40 cm

When Canoe was at rest the net total torque is zero.

Let the center of mass is at x distance from the canoe center and it will be towards the Ricardo cause. So the toque around the center of mass is given as

$m_{1}(L/2-x)=m_{2}x+m_{2}(L/2-x)$

We have to find m₂.To find the value of m₂ first we need figure out the value of.As they changed their positions the center of mass moved to other side by distance 2x.

2x=40

x=40/2

x=20 cm

Substitute in the above equation we get

$m_{x}=\frac{m_{1}(L/2-x)-m_{2}x }{L/2+x}\\m_{x}=\frac{80(\frac{3}{2}-0.2 )-30*0.2}{3/2+0.2}\\m_{x}=57.65 kg$
