A 10 kg block is pushed with a constant horizontal force of 20 n against a constant horizontal frictional force of 10 n. What is

the acceleration of the block?
Physics

Answer:

The acceleration would be a=1 m/s^2. Let's explain why.

Explanation:

Let's say the block is □

20N→□    Block is pushed with a constant horizontal force of 20N

□←10N     It is known that frictional force is the <u>opposite way</u> of the movement

So it is safe to say that there is 10 N force trying to stop the block.

In this case our net force is F_{net} = 20-10=10N

According to <u>Newton's second motion law</u>

F=m.a (m=mass, F=force, a=acceleration

F_{net} =10=10.a → a=1\frac{m^{2} }{s}

As an extra information the block also applies gravitational m.g force down but since there is no other force applies in the vertical way, ground compansate the force.

A 3.50 cm tall object is held 24.8 cm from a lens of focal length 16.0 cm. What is the image height?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

<h2>6.36 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula to first get the image distance

1/f = 1/u+1/v

f = focal length of the lens

u = object distance

v = image distance

Given f = 16.0 cm, u = 24.8 cm

1/v = 1/16 - 1/24.8

1/v = 0.0625-0.04032

1/v = 0.02218

v = 1/0.02218

v = 45.09 cm

To get the image height, we will us the magnification formula.

Mag = v/u = Hi/H

Hi = image height = ?

H = object height = 3.50 cm

45.09/24.8 = Hi/3.50

Hi = (45.09*3.50)/24.8

Hi = 6.36 cm

The image height is 6.36 cm

1-A train travels 100 km to reach town A in one hour and 15 min. The train stops at station A for 45 minutes. Then it travels 15
kirill [66]

Answer 1) : 62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

Explanation:

1) Displacement of the train = 100 km + 150 km = 250 km

Total time train took =1 hour 15 min+ 45 min + 2 hours = 240 min = 4 hours

Average velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}=\frac{250 km}{4 hour}=62.5 km/h

62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The acceleration of the car, a= 1.2 m/s^2

Distance covered by the car,s = 75 m

Initial velocity of the car ,v_i = 6 m/s

Final velocity of thre car ,v_f=?

Using third equation of motion:

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2+2as=(6 m/s)^2+2\times 1.2 m/s\times 75 m=216 m^2/s^2

v_{f}=14.69 m/s

The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s
