Answer:

2kg

Explanation:

According to newton's second law of motion, force is equal to the product of mass of an object to its acceleration.

Force = mass × acceleration

Given a force of 12N

Acceleration = 6m/s²

Mass = Force/acceleration

Substituting the given values in the formula above, we will have;

Mass = 12/6

Mass of the softball = 2kg

Answer:

The question to your answer is: mass = 12 kg

Explanation:

Data

Force = 12 N

acceleration = 6 m/s²

mass = ?

Formula

Force = mass x acceleration  (Newton's second law of motion)

mass = Force / acceleration

Substitution

mass = 12 N / 6 m/s²

mass = 12 kg result

2. A carpenter tosses a shingle off a 9.4 m high roof, giving it an initial horizontal
Aleksandr [31]

Sounds like the shingle/ball is thrown from the roof horizontally, so that the distance it travels <em>x</em> after time <em>t</em> horizontally is

<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) <em>t</em>

The object's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> is

<em>y</em> = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, and its vertical velocity is

<em>v</em> = -<em>gt</em>

(a) The object hits the ground when <em>y</em> = 0:

0 = 9.4 m - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

<em>t</em>² = 2 * (9.4 m) / (9.80 m/s²)

<em>t</em> ≈ 1.92 s

at which time the object's vertical velocity is

<em>v</em> = -<em>g</em> (1.92 s) = -18.8 m/s ≈ -19 m/s

(b) See part (a); it takes the object about 1.9 s to reach the ground.

(c) The object travels a horizontal distance of

<em>x</em> = (7.2 m/s) * (1.92 s) ≈ 13.8 m ≈ 14 m

A freight car moves along a frictionless level railroad track at constant speed. The freight car is open on the top. A large loa
Fittoniya [83]

The added weight of the sand puts more downward pressure on the wheels contacting the rails, which would cause the trains speed to decrease.

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
