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

Physics
1 answer:
erik [133]3 years ago
3 0

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.

An object with a mass of 5kg accelerates at 2m/s2. How much force in Newtons(N) is needed to cause this to happen??
Reptile [31]

Answer: The formula of Newtons second law of motion is F=MA so therefore it would be written like this Force = Mass X Acceleration

F = 5 x 2

F = 10 N

A majorette in the Rose Bowl Parade tosses a baton into the air with an initial angular velocity of 2.5 rev/s. If the baton unde
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

14 rev

Explanation:

w_{o} = initial angular velocity = 2.5 revs⁻¹

w = final angular velocity = 0.8 revs⁻¹

\alpha = Angular acceleration = - 0.2 revs⁻²

\theta = Angular displacement

Using the equation

w^{2} = w_{o}^{2} + 2 \alpha \theta\\0.8^{2} = 2.5^{2} + 2 (- 0.2) \theta\\ \theta = 14 rev

So the number of revolutions are 14

A coffee filter of mass 1.5 grams dropped from a height of 3 m reaches the ground with a speed of 0.7 m/s. How much kinetic ener
Mademuasel [1]

The kinetic energy gained by the air molecules is 0.0437 J                

<h3 />

Given:

Mass of a coffee filter, m = 1.5 g

Height from which it is dropped, h = 3 m

Speed at ground, v = 0.7 m/s

Initially, the coffee filter has potential energy. It is given by :

P =mgh

P = 1.5 × 10⁻³ kg × 9.8 m/s² × 3m

P = 0.0441 J

Finally, it will have kinetic energy. It is given by :

E= \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

E= \frac{1}{2}×1.4 × 10⁻³ × (0.7)²

E = 0.000343 J

The  kinetic energy Kair did the air molecules gain from the falling coffee filter is :

E = 0.000343 -  0.0441

  = 0.0437 J

So, the kinetic energy Kair did the air molecules gain from the falling coffee filter is 0.0437 J
