1.A wagon with a mass of 20 kg is accelerating at 0.5 m/s2. What is the force on it?

Physics

erik [133]3 years ago

1). Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Force = (20 kg) x (0.5 m/s )

Force = <em>10 Newtons</em>

2). Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

In this case, the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity.

1 N = (mass) x (9.8 m/s )

Mass = (1 N) / (9.8 m/s )

Mass = <em>0.1 kg</em>

<em></em>

3).  Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

This formula is important. Memorize it !

You saw here that the same formula answered both of your questions.

It'll answer a lot more Physics questions that you haven't seen yet.

If you're taking a Physics class, there will DEFINITELY be at least one question on the final exam that will test you to see whether you know this formula and how to use it. Maybe more than one.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

8.75

Explanation:

First, find the force of friction.

Kinetic energy = work done by friction

½ mv² = Fd

½ (3.9 kg) (2.9 m/s)² = F (1.4 m)

F = 11.7 N

Next, find the distance at the new velocity.

Kinetic energy = work done by friction

½ mv² = Fd

½ (3.9 kg) (2.5 × 2.9 m/s)² = (11.7 N) d

d = 8.75 m

Dolphin echolocation is similar to ultrasound. Reflected sound waves
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.

Explanation:

To understand why high-frequency waves work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation, first we have to understand the relation between frequency and wavelength.

The relation between frequency and wavelength is given by

λ = c/f

Where λ is wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency.

Since the speed of light is constant, the wavelength and frequency are inversely related.

So that means high frequency waves have shorter wavelengths, which is the very reason for the successful echolocation because waves having shorter wavelength are more likely to reach and hit the target and then reflect back to the dolphin to form an image of the object.

Thus, waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.

Serga [27]

Answer:

q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C

Explanation:

Deflection in the drop is due to electric field force

so we will have

F = qE

acceleration of the drop is given as

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{q(7.75 \times 10^4)}{1.00 \times 10^{-11}}

a = 7.75 \times 10^{15} q

now we know that time to cross the plates is given as

t = \frac{D}{v}

t = \frac{0.02}{18}

t = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} s

now the deflection is given as

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.310 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{1}{2}(7.75 \times 10^{15} q)(1.11 \times 10^{-3})^2

0.310 \times 10^{-3} = 4.78 \times 10^9 q

q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C
