Give an examplea of newtons law of acceleration

Physics

The 2nd Law of Motion states acceleration is produced when a n unbalanced force acts on an object (mass) The more mass the object has the more net force has to be used to move it.

Examples:

If you use the same force to push a truck and push a car, the car will have more acceleration than the truck, because the car has less mass.

It's easier to push a empty shopping cart then a full one, because the full one has more mass than the empty one. This means more force is required to push the full shopping cart.

A particle moves in a straight line so that time t seconds its displacement is x metres from a fixed point is given by x=3t^2 +2
Andru [333]

Answer:

-5 meters

Explanation:

x = 3t² + 2t − 5

The initial displacement is when t = 0.

x = 3(0)² + 2(0) − 5

x = -5

The terminal velocity of a person falling in air depends upon the weight and the area of the person facing the fluid. Find the t
Serga [27]

Answer:

115 m/s, 414 km/hr

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on a skydiver: gravity and air resistance (drag).  At terminal velocity, the two forces are equal and opposite.

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

Drag force is defined as:

D = ½ ρ v² C A

where ρ is the fluid density,

v is the velocity,

C is the drag coefficient,

and A is the cross sectional surface area.

Substituting and solving for v:

½ ρ v² C A = mg

v² = 2mg / (ρCA)

v = √(2mg / (ρCA))

We're given values for m and A, and we know the value of g.  We need to look up ρ and C.

Density of air depends on pressure and temperature (which vary with elevation), but we can estimate ρ ≈ 1.21 kg/m³.

For a skydiver falling headfirst, C ≈ 0.7.

Substituting all values:

v = √(2 × 80.0 kg × 9.8 m/s² / (1.21 kg/m³ × 0.7 × 0.140 m²))

v = 115 m/s

v = 115 m/s × (1 km / 1000 m) × (3600 s / hr)

v = 414 km/hr

Suppose a piece of food is on the edge of a rotating microwave oven plate. Does it experience nonzero tangential acceleration, c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a) When the plate starts to spin:

Its angular velocity increases, so the angular acceleration is non zero. As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

(b) When the plate rotates at constant angular velocity:

Its angular velocity is constant so the angular acceleration is zero. As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

(c) When the plate sows to halt:

Its angular velocity decreases, so the angular acceleration is non zero( but negative). As the direction of velocity keeps on changing every instant so the linear acceleration is also non zero.

What is the mass of a liquid having a density of 1.50 g/ml and a volume of 3.5 liters?
PIT_PIT [208]

We know the formula for density = Mass/ volume

So     Mass, M = Volume * Density

         Volume = 3.5 L= 0.0035m^3

         Density = 1.50 g/ml  = 1500 kg/m^3

         Mass, M =  0.0035*1500 = 5.25 kg

So mass of liquid having density 1.50 g/ml and volume 3.5 liters is 5.25 kg.

Many of today’s mathematicians use computers to test cases that ___
vekshin1

Many of today’s mathematicians use computers to test cases that are either too time-consuming or involve too many variables to test manually, allowing the exploration of theoretical issues that were impossible to test a generation ago.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

One of the most useful inventions in scientific world are the computers. We can use different programming language and create programs in them. These programs help other to solve difficult problems. Most of the theoretical problems in science can be solved by using these programming features in computer within a specific time limit.

Otherwise, earlier mathematician used to take months to solve a complex mathematical problem manually, but now with the inclusion of computers, the mathematician can solve the problems containing more number of variables or other theoretical issues.
