According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N

Your body continues to move unless stopped by the seatbelt. An object in motion will remain in motion. Since your body was already moving it will continue to.

A 0.50-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle (radius 2.0 m). When the mass is at the highest point
il63 [147K]

Answer:

31.1 N

Explanation:

m = mass attached to string = 0.50 kg

r = radius of the vertical circle = 2.0 m

v = speed of the mass at the highest point = 12 m/s

T = force of the string on the mass attached.

At the highest point, force equation is given as

T + mg =\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Inserting the values

T + (0.50)(9.8) =\frac{(0.50)(12)^{2}}{2}

T = 31.1 N

2. How have human activities and natural processes influenced the gradual or sudden change in global temperature? (You need a mi
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Human activities and natural processes have influenced the change in the global temperature by the following processes

1) Green house gas such as carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels the use of  industrial chemicals, the production of coal, and natural gas

2) Deforestation which reduces the natural process of conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen, thereby, increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

3) The accumulation of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in the trapping of heat in the atmosphere, causing the atmospheric temperature to rise

4) Changes in the amount of energy produced by the Sun can result in an increase or decrease in the atmospheric temperature

5) Volcanic activity that occurs at a sufficiently large scale can produce sulfur dioxide that blocks the rays of the Sun from reaching the Earth, resulting in a change of atmospheric temperature.

A skater extends her arms, holding a 2 kg mass in each hand. She is rotating about a vertical axis at a given rate. She brings h
Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between torque and angular acceleration is as follows.

                    \tau = I \times \alpha

and,       I = \sum mr^{2}

So,      I_{1} = 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2}

                       = 4 kg m^{2}

      \tau_{1} = 4 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{1}

     \tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}

So,      I_{2} = 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2}

                     = 1 kg m^{2}

 as \tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}

                   = 1 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{2}        

Hence,     \tau_{1} = \tau_{2}

                  4 \alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2}

            \alpha_{1} = \frac{1}{4} \alpha_{2}

Thus, we can conclude that the new rotation is \frac{1}{4} times that of the first rotation rate.
