A car generates 2,552 N and weighs 2,250 pounds. what is the rate of acceleration
Lilit [14]
Ans: a = 2.50 m/s^2

Explanation:
First convert the mass in its standard unit i.e. kilogram(kg):
2250 lbs = 1020.583kg

Next use Newton's Second law:
F = ma

Where F = 2552N
m = 1020.583kg

=> a = (2552/1020.583)
a = 2.50 m/s^2

Two particles are located on the x axis. particle 1 has a mass m and is at the origin. particle 2 has a mass 2m and is at x = +l
wlad13 [49]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>
The force on m is:</span>

<span>
GMm / x^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 1

The force on 2m is:</span>

<span>
GM(2m) / (L - x)^2 + Gm(2m) / L^2 = 2[Gm (2m) / L^2] -> 2

From (1), you’ll get M = 2mx^2 / L^2 and from (2) you get M = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

Since the Ms are the same, then 

2mx^2 / L^2 = m(L - x)^2 / L^2 

2x^2 = (L - x)^2 

xsqrt2 = L - x 

x(1 + sqrt2) = L 

x = L / (sqrt2 + 1) From here, we rationalize. 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (sqrt2 + 1)(sqrt2 - 1) 

x = L(sqrt2 - 1) / (2 - 1) 


x = L(sqrt2 - 1) </span>

 

= 0.414L

 

<span>Therefore, the third particle should be located the 0.414L x axis so that the magnitude of the gravitational force on both particle 1 and particle 2 doubles.</span>

The largest hailstone every measured fell in Vivian, Nebraska in 2010. The circumference of that hailstone was 19 inches. Using
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

6.04788 in

115.82654\ in^3

78.38779 m/s

0.88159 kg

34.55294 J

Explanation:

Circumference is given by

c=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{c}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{19}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=3.02394\ in

Diameter is given by

d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.02394\\\Rightarrow d=6.04788\ in

The diameter is 6.04788 in

6.04788\times 2.54=15.3616152\ cm

Volume of sphere is given by

v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi 3.02394^3\\\Rightarrow v=115.82654\ in^3

The volume is 115.82654\ in^3

115.82654\times \dfrac{1}{1728}=0.06702\ ft^3

Fall velocity is given by

V=k\sqrt{d}\\\Rightarrow V=20\sqrt{15.3616152}\\\Rightarrow V=78.38779\ m/s

The velocity of the fall will be 78.38779 m/s

Mass is given by

m=\rho v\\\Rightarrow m=29\times 0.06702\\\Rightarrow m=1.94358\ lb

1.94358\ lb=1.94358\times \dfrac{1}{2.20462}=0.88159\ kg

The mass is 0.88159 kg

Kinetic energy is given by

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}0.88159\times 78.38779\\\Rightarrow K=34.55294\ J

The kinetic energy is 34.55294 J
