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

Physics
1 answer:
posledela3 years ago
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.

If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?
vodomira [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

 Option A is the correct answer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Let the east point towards positive X-axis and north point towards positive Y-axis.

 First walking 1.2 km north,  displacement = 1.2 j km

 Secondly 1.6 km east, displacement = 1.6 i km

 Total displacement = (1.6 i + 1.2 j) km

 Magnitude = \sqrt{1.2^2+1.6^2} = 2 km

 Angle of resultant with positive X - axis = tan^{-1}(1.2/1.6)=36.87^0 = 36.87⁰ east of north.

Velocity of a Hot-Air Balloon A hot-air balloon rises vertically from the ground so that its height after t sec is given by the
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the height reached by a balloon after t sec modeled by the equation

h=1/2t²+1/2t

a) To calculate the height of the balloon after 40 secs we will substitute t = 40 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of t

If h(t)=1/2t²+1/2t

h(40) = 1/2(40)²+1/2 (40)

h(40) = 1600/2 + 40/2

h(40) = 800 + 20

h(40) = 820 feet

The height of the balloon after 40 secs is 820 feet

b) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

when v = 0sec

v(0) = 0 + 1/2

v(0) = 1/2 ft/sec

at v = 30secs

v(30) = 30 + 1/2

v(30) = 30 1/2 ft/sec

average velocity = v(30) - v(0)

average velocity = 30 1/2 - 1/2

average velocity of the balloon between t = 0 and t = 30 = 30 ft/sec

c) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.

v = dh/dt

v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2

v(t) = t + 1/2

The velocity of the balloon after 30secs will be;

v(30) = 30+1/2

v(30) = 30.5ft/sec

The velocity of the balloon after 30 secs is 30.5 feet/sec

A toaster uses 6700 joules of energy in 45 seconds to toast to a piece of bread what is power of the oven
just olya [345]
P= w/t and W= Work 
In this case, W= 6,700j, and T= 45 seconds
Power is the ratio of work  per unit time. When you perform a work in a given span of time, the ratio of work performed with respect to time is Called Power. 
si unit for Power is Watt (W) 
so, P= 6,700/45
P= 148 
Final answer is P=148

A 32.5 g cube of aluminum initially at 45.8 °C is submerged into 105.3 g of water at 15.4 °C. What is the final temperature of b
lakkis [162]

Answer:

T = 17.26 ^oC

Explanation:

At thermal equilibrium we have heat given by aluminium must be equal to the heat absorbed by the water

so we will have

Q_1 = Q_2

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

so we will have

32.5(900)(45.8 - T) = 105.3(4186)(T - 15.4)

so we have

(45.8 - T) = 15.1(T - 15.4)

so we have

16.1 T = 277.87

T = 17.26 ^oC

You are standing in a building whose height (40m) you throw a ball downward at a angle of -30 at a speed of (10m/s) acceleration
jeyben [28]

Answer: 3.41 s

Explanation:

Assuming the question is to find the time t the ball is in air, we can use the following equation:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin \theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Where:

y=0m is the final height of the ball

y_{o}=40 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=10 m/s is the initial velocity of the ball

t is the time the ball is in air

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity  

\theta=30\°

Then:

0 m=40 m+(10 m/s)(sin(30\°))t-\frac{1}{2}9.8 m/s^{2}t^{2}

0 m=40 m+5m/s t-4.9 m/s^{2}t^{2}

Multiplying both sides of the equation by -1 and rearranging:

4.9 m/s^{2}t^{2}-5m/s t-40 m=0

At this point we have a quadratic equation of the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, which can be solved with the following formula:

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

Where:

a=4.9

b=-5

c=-40

Substituting the known values:

t=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(4.9)(-40)}}{2(4.9)}

Solving the equation and choosing the positive result we have:

t=3.41 s  This is the time the ball is in air
