You are in a speedboat on a river moving in the same direction as the current. The speedometer on the boat shows that its speed

is 20 km/h. However, a person on the shore measures the boat's speed as 23 km/h. How is this possible?

From the reference point of the river, the speed of the boat is 20 km/h. From the reference point of someone standing on the shore, the speed of the boat is the speed on the speedometer plus the downstream speed of the current.

What are 3 different forces that act on objects on the earth ΩvΩ
Stolb23 [73]
A force is a push or pull acting upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object. There are a variety of types of forces. a variety of force types were placed into two broad category headings on the basis of whether the force resulted from the contact or non-contact of the two interacting objects.

Contact Forces

Action-at-a-Distance Forces

Frictional Force
Gravitational Force
Tensional Force
Electrical Force
Normal Force
Magnetic Force
Air Resistance Force
Applied Force
Spring Force


These are types of individual forces



Applied Force

How fast would 40 Newtons of force accelerate a 2 kg object?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

20 m/s^2

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

In this problem:

F = 40 N is the force on the object

m = 2 kg is its mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{2}=20 m/s^2
