A 3.0N force to the right acts on a 0.5kg object at rest during a time interval of 4.0 seconds .What is the velocity of the obje

monitta

Answer:

24 m/s

Explanation:

Applying Newton's second law of motion,

F = ma................ Equation 1

Where F = force acting on the object, m = mass of the object a = acceleration of the object.

First we calculate for a.

make a the subject of the formula in equation 1 above

a = F/m............... Equation 2

Given: F = 3 N, m = 0.5 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

a = 3/0.5

a = 6 m/s²

Secondly we calculate the velocity by using,

v = u+at................... Equation 3

Where v = Final velocity of the object, u = initial velocity of the object, t = time interval

Given: u = 0 m/s (at rest), a = 6 m/s², t = 4 s

Substitute into equation 3

v = 0+6(4)

v = 24 m/s

What acceleration does the force of earth's gravity peoduce

maksim [4K]

Near Earth's surface, gravitational acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s2, which means that, ignoring the effects of air resistance, the speed of an object falling freely will increase by about 9.81 metres per second every second.

About ________ percent of wais scores fall between 70 and 130.

stiv31 [10]

It is about 95%. The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV is an IQ test that is given by therapists and measures worldwide scholarly working. It incorporates both verbal and nonverbal parts. The normal score for all tests and subtests is 100; therefore, a score of more than 100 is better than expected and beneath 100 is underneath normal.

What measurement do we use to determine the amount of force used to move an object by a simple machine

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Newtons.

Explanation:

Force is given by the multiplication of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically, Force is;

$F = ma$

Where;

F represents force measured in Newton.

m represents the mass of an object measured in kilograms.

a represents acceleration measured in meter per seconds square.

Newtons is a measurement we use to determine the amount of force used to move an object by a simple machine. It is the International System of Units (SI) used to measure force and has a symbol of N.

Basically, it was named after Sir Isaac Newton based on his fundamental works in the field of mechanics (motions).
