If the force acting on a cart doubles, what happens to the carts acceleration?

Physics

Effectus [21]3 years ago

Answer:

If the force on a cart doubles, the acceleration of the cart doubles.

Explanation:

For this problem, we need to consider the following equation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

We can reasonably assume that the cart will have constant mass in the given force system.  With this assumption we can say the following relationship:

Force is directly proportional to Acceleration within the system.

Given that our force on the cart is doubled, then our acceleration of the cart must also be doubled.  You can mathematically express this as follows:

F = MA

2F = M * 2A

Hence, if force doubles, the acceleration doubles.

Cheers.

How is Aristotles model similar to Ptolemy’s model
Margarita [4]

I'm assuming you mean models of the solar system:

Both Aristotle and Ptolemy had the idea that the solar system was geocentric. This means that all objects in the solar system including the Sun revolve around the Earth.
