A net force of 24 N is acting on a 4.0-kg object. Find the acceleration in m/s2.

Inessa [10]

Hi there!

We can use Newton's Second Law:
$\Sigma F = ma$

ΣF = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)

We can rearrange the equation to solve for the acceleration.

$a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m}\\\\a = \frac{24}{4} = \boxed{6 \frac{m}{s^2}}$

Influenced by the gravitational pull of a distant star, the velocity of an asteroid changes from from +19.3 km/s to −18.8 km/s o

muminat

As per above given data

initial velocity = 19.3 km/s

final velocity = - 18.8 km/s

now in order to find the change in velocity

$\Delta v = v_f - v_i$

$\Delta v = -18.8 - 19.3$

$\Delta v = -38.1 km/s$

$\Delta v = -3.81 * 10^4 m/s$

Part b)

Now we need to find acceleration

acceleration is given by formula

$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

given that

$\Delta v =- 3.81 * 10^4 m/s$

$\Delta t = 2.07 years = 6.53 * 10^7 s$

now the acceleration is given as

$a = \frac{-3.81 * 10^4}{6.53 * 10^7}$

$a = - 5.84 * 10^{-4}m/s^2$

so above is the acceleration

The force generated by a single muscle fiber can be increased by increasing is called

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The force generated by a single muscle fiber can be increased by increasing the frequency of action potentials

Explanation:

The force generated by a muscle fiber is the result of the shortening of the skeletal muscle, and this force is also know as muscle tension. The larger motor units shorten along with the smaller units to produce the muscle force. The time lapsed between the beginning of the action potential in the muscle and the beginning of the contraction is the latent period. Action potential is the result of the difference electrical potential as a result of passage of an impulse along the membrane of a muscle or nerve cell.
