Answer:

particle size

Explanation:

Filtration is process of separating a mixture. The separation occurs by passing the mixture through a medium. Through this medium a component of the mixture will be blocked. This separates the components of the mixture. The component that has particle size less than the medium's particles passes through the rest does not pass through.

What is the relationship in Newton's second law between force, mass and acceleration?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to and in the same direction as the net external force acting on the system, and inversely proportional to its mass. If the only force acting on an object is due to gravity, the object is in free fall.

Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard.

Vikentia [17]

The Newton’s law Nikolas would use to come up with this idea is the Third law that states:

When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.

So, in this case, let's name the first Body A which is the skateboard and the second body B which is the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher. Then, as shown in the figure below, according to the Third law:

 $FA = -FB$
