In our first example we will consider a very simple application of Newton’s second law. A worker with spikes on his shoes pulls

with a constant horizontal force of magnitude 20 N on a box with mass 40 kg resting on the flat, frictionless surface of a frozen lake. What is the acceleration of the box?
If the box starts from rest and the worker pulls with a force of 30 N , what is the speed of the box after it has been pulled a distance of 0.30 m ?

Answer:

Acceleration=0.5m/s^2

Speed=0.67 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Horizontal force=F=20 N

Mass of box=m=40 kg

We know that

Acceleration=a=\frac{F}{m}

Using the formula

Acceleration of box=\frac{20}{40}=0.5m/s^2

The acceleration of the box=0.5m/s^2

Initial velocity=u=0

Force=F=30 N

Distance=s=0.3 m

a=\frac{30}{40}=\frac{3}{4} ms^{-2}

v^2-u^2=2as

Substitute the values

v^2-0=2\times \frac{3}{4}\times 0.3=0.45

v^2=0.45

v=\sqrt{0.45}=0.67m/s

Hence, the speed of the box after it has  been pulled a distance of 0.3 m=0.67 m/s

A transformer has a secondary voltage of 140 volts and a secondary current of 3.5 amps. if the primary current is 10 amps, what
Lynna [10]

For an ideal transformer power loss is assumed to be zero

i.e. the power in primary coil due to input voltage must be equal to power in secondary coil due to output voltage

this can be written in form of equation

V_1 i_1 = V_2 i_2

here we know that

V_2 = 140 volts

i_2 = 3.5 A

i_1 = 10 A{/tex]now we will use above equation[tex]140*3.5 = 10 * V_1

V_1 = 49 volts

So primary coil voltage is 49 Volts

Light is shone on a diffraction grating
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

    λ = 482.05 nm

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon and the diffraction grating is described by the expression

         d sin θ = m λ

where d is the distance between two consecutive slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer representing the order of diffraction

in this case they indicate the distance between slits, the angle and the order of diffraction

         λ = \frac{d sin \theta }{m}d sin θ / m

let's calculate

         λ = 1.00 10⁻⁶ sin 74.6 / 2

         λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m

Let's reduce to nm

         λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)

         λ = 482.05 nm

Who has the greater velocity, an astronaut who has just completed an orbit of the Earth or you when you have just traveled from
Alik [6]

Answer:

the answer is

Explanation:

constant acceleration

because when the object's velocity is changing then the object is accelerating or decelerating

as acceleration describe changing of velocity so the answer is constant acceleration

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Acceleration = (Change in velocity) / time taken

Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity) / time

As the object velocity changes by the same amount in each second, it means the acceleration is constant.
