A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s

Physics

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².

Which properties of a lava lamp are important to remember when modeling convection?

Luba_88 [7]

Important thing when making a lava lamp are the two liquids with different density so that it would not mix and that it would expand when heated. The movement of the orange liquid is called convection. if you will not heat the orange one, it till just stay on the stop and not go under tha water.

25% part (c) assume that d is the distance the cheetah is away from the gazelle when it reaches full speed. Derive an expression

levacccp [35]

maximum speed of cheetah is

$v_1 = v_{max}$

speed of gazelle is given as

$v_2 = v_{g}$

Now the relative speed of Cheetah with respect to Gazelle

$v_{12} = v_1 - v_2$

$v_{12} = v_{max} - v_g$

now the relative distance between Cheetah and Gazelle is given initially as "d"

now the time taken by Cheetah to catch the Gazelle is given as

$d = v_{12}* t$

so by rearranging the terms we can say

$t = \frac{d}{v_{12}}$

$t = \frac{d}{v_{max} - v_g}$

so above is the relation between all given variable

When mapping the equipotentials on the plates with different electrode configurations you may find that some have significant ar

Olenka [21]

Answer:

v = 10 V and E = 2 10³ N/C

Explanation:

The electrical potentials and the electric field at one point are related by the expression

ΔV = - ∫ E. dS

Where the bold indicates vector quantities, E is the electric field and S is the line of displacement of the load, in general displacement is perpendicular to the equipotential lines, which reduces the product scales to the ordinary product.

If the potential difference is the most usual that is V = 10 V, the electric field is

s = 0.5 cm = 0.5 10⁻² m

E = ΔV / S

E = 10/0.5 10⁻²

E = 2 10³ N / C

Two planets having equal masses are in circular orbit around a star. Planet A has a smaller orbital radius than planet B. Which

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this, we must know two things.

First, the force of gravity acting on an orbiting object is equal to its mass times centripetal acceleration.

Second, the force of gravity between two objects is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation: Fg = mMG/r², where Fg is the force of gravity, m and M are the masses of the objects, G is the universal constant of gravitation, and r is the distance between the objects.

Therefore:

Fg = m v²/r

mMG/r² = m v²/r

v² = MG/r

The potential energy of each planet is:

PE = mgr = m (MG/r²) r = mMG/r

The kinetic energy of each planet is:

KE = 1/2 mv² = 1/2 m (MG/r) = 1/2 mMG/r

The total mechanical energy is:

ME = PE + KE = 3/2 mMG/r

Since both planets have the same mass, the only difference is the orbital radius. Since planet A has a smaller orbital radius, it has more potential energy, more kinetic energy, and more mechanical energy.
