If the acceleration was reduced 1/4 what will be the new force

1 answer:

8 0

Acceleration is directly proportional to applied force. If the acceleration
suddenly fell to 1/4 of its original value, that immediately tells you that
the applied force must have dropped to 1/4 of its original value.

BTW ... acceleration doesn't cause force. Force causes acceleration.

In a controlled experiment, a scientist is studying how long it takes feathers of different sizes to fall to the ground. What is

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: independent variable: Size of the feather.

Explanation:

In an experiment, the manipulated/independent variable is, as the name implies, the variable that the scientist can control.

In this case, the scientist has only one variable that he can control at will, and this is the size of the feather (he can choose which feather he uses for the experiment)

So the manipulated variable will be the size of the feather.

And the dependent variable is the one that "answers" to the changes in the manipulated variable.

In this case, will be the time that it takes to the feather to fall to the ground.

Which device uses a rotating magnetic field to produce an electric current?

Kay [80]

The correct answer is C) a motor.
In particular, we are talking about an AC motor, which produces an alternating current. In an AC motor, a coil is immersed in a rotating magnetic field. Due to the motion of the magnetic field,the angle between the direction of the field and the surface enclosed by the coil changes. As a result, the magnetic flux through the coil changes over time (the magnetic flux is given by:
 $\phi=BAcos\theta$ 
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field, A is the area enclosed by the coil and $\theta$ is the angle between the direction of B and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil). For Faraday-Newmann-Lenz law, this change in flux induces an electromotive force (emf) into the coil, according to:
 $emf=- \frac{d \Phi}{dt}$ 
where the numerator is the variation of magnetic flux and dt is the time interval. This emf in the coil produced an electrical current in the circuit.

Which describes how to generate a real image of an object using a concave mirror?The object must be closer to the mirror than th

iren2701 [21]

In order to form a real image using a concave mirror, the object must be placed beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Therefore, the object must be further from the mirror than the focal point. The image that will form will be real, but it will also be inverted and its magnification will be less than 1, meaning it will be smaller than the actual object.

An electric toaster is rated 1200 watts at 120 volts. what is the total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 sec

Anarel [89]

Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.
