Rearrange the equation F = ma to solve for acceleration<span>. You can change this formula around to solve for </span>acceleration<span> by dividing both sides by the mass, so: a = F/m. To find the </span>acceleration<span>, simply divide the force by the mass of the </span>object <span>being accelerated.

Hope i helped :)</span>

Answer:

\large \boxed{{\displaystyle A=\frac{V_f-V_i}{t}}}

Explanation:

\displaystyle acceleration = \frac{change \ in \ velocity }{elapsed \ time}

\displaystyle A=\frac{V_f-V_i}{t}

The kinetic friction force between a 60.0-kg object and a horizontal surface is 50.0 N. If the initial speed of the object is 25
Vikki [24]

Answer:

375 m.

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done by the frictional force = Kinetic energy of the object

F×d = 1/2m(v²-u²)..................... Equation 1

Where F = Force of friction, d = distance it slide before coming to rest, m = mass of the object, u = initial speed of the object, v = final speed of the object.

Make d the subject of the equation.

d = 1/2m(v²-u²)/F.................. Equation 2

Given: m = 60.0 kg, v = 0 m/s(coming to rest), u = 25 m/s, F = -50 N.

Note: If is negative because it tends to oppose the motion of the object.

Substitute into equation 2

d = 1/2(60)(0²-25²)/-50

d = 30(-625)/-50

d = -18750/-50

d = 375 m.

Hence the it will slide before coming to rest = 375 m

Four 50-g point masses are at the corners of a square with 20-cm sides. What is the moment of inertia of this system about an ax
deff fn [24]

Answer:

moment of inertia I ≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³ kg.m²

Explanation:

given

point masses = 50g = 0.050kg

note: m₁=m₂=m₃=m₄=50g = 0.050kg

distance, r, from masses to eachother = 20cm = 0.20m

the distance, d, of each mass point from the centre of the mass, using pythagoras theorem is given by

= (20√2)/ 2 = 10√2 cm =14.12 x 10⁻² m  

moment of inertia is a proportion of the opposition of a body to angular acceleration about a given pivot that is equivalent to the entirety of the products of every component of mass in the body and the square of the component's distance from the center

mathematically,

I = ∑m×d²

remember, a square will have 4 equal points

I = ∑m×d² = 4(m×d²)

I = 4 × 0.050 × (14.12 x 10⁻² m)²

I = 0.20 × 1.96 × 10⁻²

I =  3.92 x 10⁻³ kg.m²

I ≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³ kg.m²

attached is the diagram of the equation

6. What makes an object float rather than sink?
alexandr402 [8]
An object will float in any solution rather than sink, when the density of the object is less than that of the solution in which it is floating. This statement does not mean that the object has to be lighter in weight than the fluid in which it is floating. A great example is a ship floating in water. I hope the answer helps you.
