Question 26 suppose that a constant force is applied to an object. newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of

the object varies inversely with its mass. a constant force acting upon an object with mass 14 kg produces an acceleration of 3 /ms2 . the acceleration of another object produced by the same force is 7 /ms2 . what is the mass of this object?

<span>The answer is 6 kg the mass of the second object. By using Inversely proportional formula it means that (14 kg) (3 m/s</span>²<span>) = M (7 m/s</span>²<span>). Where M is the mass of the second object. For the Newton’s second law of motion formula which is: Force = mass x acceleration, we have:</span>

<span>F = (14 kg) (3 m/s</span>²<span>) = 42 N</span>

 

Therefore:

<span>42 N = M (7 m/s</span>²)

<span>M = (42 N) / (7 m/s</span>²<span>)</span>

M = 6 kg mass of the second object

I know the acceleration due to gravity (ie 9.8 m/s2) will have a negative sign when falling down, a positive one when going up.
rewona [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Accerelation is measured by change in velocity. So naturally, if an object is slowing down, its velocity is decreasing so acceleration is negative. If it is speeding up velocity is increasing so positive acceleration.

(Velocity final - Velocity initial)/t

Note that this does not apply only to gravity, but to all linear accelerations

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow (mush!). The dogs have average masses of 19.0 kg, and the
liberstina [14]

Answer

given,

number of dog = 8

mass of each dog= 19 Kg

mass of sled = 210 Kg

average force = 185 Nss

a) writing all the horizontal force

   force acting by dog - friction force = (M + 8m) a

   8 F_d - μ m g = (M + 8m) a

assuming coefficient of friction of snow be μ = 0.14

    8 x 185 - 0.14 x 210 x 9.8 = (210 + 8 x 19 ) x a

               a = 3.29 m/s²

b)  the kinetic friction of coefficient is less than static friction

 hence, we can suggest that acceleration of the sled will increase once the sled start to move.

                a > 3.29 m/s²

When we give the speed of a car what frame of reference are we using?
Rus_ich [418]

Frame of reference, in simplest terms, describes the state of motion of the observer. The frame of reference may also be described by using a set of coordinates, time and motion. We formulate all our equations and solve them using the frame of reference.

20 kg rodsis on the edge of a 80 m high de What is the rodes gracional potencial energy?
quester [9]

Answer:

Gpe = 15680 Joules

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where;

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Given the following data;

Mass = 20 kg

Height = 80 m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s²

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gpe = mgh

Gpe = 20 * 80 * 9.8

Gpe = 15680 Joules

What can you assume has happened if an electron moves to a higher energy level
tresset_1 [31]

The extra energy that the electron suddenly has had to
come from somewhere, so I can assume that one of
two things happened:

either 1).  A photon passed by and the electron absorbed it.

      or 2).  Somebody hooked up a battery or a generator in
such a way that the electron was bathed in a field of electrostatic
potential, and suddenly had the get-up-and-go to jump to a higher
energy level, and possibly even to leave its atom completely and
zip over to a neighbor atom.
