<u>Answer:</u>

0.5 ms−2

<u>Explanation</u>:

Newton's second law of motion is mathematically expressed as

F = ma ; where F is the force exerted on an object, m is the mass of the object, and a is the acceleration of that object.

In this case, the mass of the car and the force exerted on it are provided as information.

Let's plug in the values into the formula

F = ma :

⇒600

N =1200

kg × a

Let's express N

using SI base units:

⇒600 kg m s−2 = 1200 kg × a

⇒600 kg m s−2 = 1200 kg = 1200 kg

1200 kg × a

⇒1 on 2 ms −2 = 1 × a

∴ a = 0.5 ms−2

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is

0.5 ms−2

when its engine exerts a force of 600N

A plastic rod of length d = 1.5 m lies along the x-axis with its midpoint at the origin. The rod carries a uniform linear charge
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the plastic rod extends from - L to + L .

consider a small length of dx on the rod on the positive x axis at distance x . charge on it =  λ dx where  λ is linear charge density .

It will create a field at point P on y -axis . Distance of point P

= √ x² + .15²

electric field at P due to small charged length

dE = k λ dx x  / (x² + .15² )

Its component along Y - axis

= dE cosθ where θ is angle between direction of field dE and y axis

= dE x .15 / √ x² + .15²

=  k λ dx  .15 / (x² + .15² )³/²

If we consider the same strip along the x axis at the same position  on negative x axis , same result will be found . It is to be noted that the component of field in perpendicular to y axis will cancel out each other . Now for electric field due to whole rod at point p , we shall have to integrate the above expression from - L to + L

E = ∫  k λ  .15  / (x² + .15² )³/² dx

=  k λ  x L / .15 √( L² / 4 + .15² )

Two blocks are the same size one block has a higher temperature than the other. Which describes the thermal energy of these bloc
shepuryov [24]
The block that has a higher temperature describes the thermal energy of these blocks. Thermal energy is a measure of internal energy - therefore, the block with the higher temperature has more internal energy than the block with the lower temperature, meaning it's thermal energy is greater.

Show that the effective force constant of a series combination is given by 1keff=1k1+1k2. (Hint: For a given force, the total di
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1keff=1k1+1k2

see further explanation

Explanation:for clarification

Show that the effective force constant of a series combination is given by 1keff=1k1+1k2. (Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination. Also, each spring must exert the same force. Do you see why?

From Hooke's law , we know that the force exerted on an elastic object is directly proportional to the extension provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded.

Now the spring is in series combination

F\alphae

F=ke

k=f/e.........*

where k is the force constant or the constant of proportionality

k=f/e

f_{eff} =f_{1} +f_{2}............................1

also for effective force constant

divide all through by extension

1) Total force is

Ft=F1+F2

Ft=k1e1+k2e2

F = k(e1+e2) 2)

Since force on the 2 springs is the same, so

k1e1=k2e2

e1=F/k1 and e2=F/k2,

and e1+e2=F/keq

Substituting e1 and e2, you get

1/keq=1/k1+1/k2

Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination.

Groups of students are making measurements of small cars rolling across a table. the class has measuring tapes with markings in
TiliK225 [7]

To find the accurate measurement of small cars, the teacher asks students to make all the measurements in centimeters.

Centimeters Measurements:

  • A centimeter is a metric unit of measurement used for measuring the length of an object, It is written as cm
  • Centimeter is one hundredth of a meter, 1 meter is 0.01 cm.

Inches measurements:

  • An inch can be defined as a unit of length in the customary system of measurement. Length in inches is either represented by in or ''.
  • 1 meter is equal to 39.37 inches

here, the cars are small objects.

The number of centimeters is always bigger,

because a centimeter unit is smaller than an inch unit, and it takes more of them when we are measuring.

Hence,

To find the accurate measurement of small cars, the teacher asks students to make all the measurements in centimeters.
