A base unit or fundamental unit is a unit adopted for measurement of a base quantity.

and derived unit are those that are derived by the use of fundamental unit !

main difference is ......
There are seven fundamental quantities and they cannot be further broken down but the derived units can be many and they can be broken down to fundamental ones !

examples....meter,gram,candela,ampere, etc are fundamental......and derived are area,volume,speed etc

What is kinetic energy of a 7.26kg bowling ball that is rolling at a speed of 2m/s?

sergey [27]

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object when that object is moving in space. The higher the mass of an object or higher the speed of an object the higher the kinetic energy will be.

So to calculate the Kinetic Energy we can use the following formula

K.E=(1/2)*m*v^2

Inserting the values in formula gives:

K.E=1/2*7.26*2^2

14.52J

This is the final answer which gives the kinetic energy of the ball.

an object was accelerated with a force of 150 N from rest to a velocity of 10m/s in 5 sec. the force of friction opposing the ob

astra-53 [7]

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Mass = (force) / (acceleration)

There was 150N of force in one direction and 100N of 'force' in
the other direction. The net force on the object was (150 - 100) = 50N .

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
= (10 m/s) / (5s) = 2 m/s²

Mass = (net force) / (acceleration) = (50 N) / (2 m/s²) = 25 kilograms

A 22kg box slides down a 30.0 degree incline. If there is no friction, what is the acceleration of the box?

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Acceleration of the box is 4.9 m/s².

Explanation:

The free body diagram is shown below.

The weight of the body can be resolved into two mutually perpendicular components as shown. The force responsible for sliding motion of the box along the incline is due to $mg\sin \theta$ acting along the incline.
