Explanation:

F = 20N m= m1 a=10m/s²

m=m2 a=5m/s²

F = ma

for the first one: 

f=m1 × a

20 = m1 ×10

20=10m1

m1=20/10

m1=2

for the second one :

f=m2×a

20=m2×5

m2= 20/5

m2= 4

since F=ma

F=(m1+m2) ×a

F =(4+2)×a

F =6×a

F=20(from the question above )

20=6×a

a=20/6

a=3.33

Answer:

Explanation:

force : 20N

acceleration : 10m/s^2

mass 1 : m1

acceleration : 5m/s^2

mass 2 : m2

f = ma

20 = m1 * 10

m1 = 2

20 = m2 * 5

m2 = 4

m1 + m2 = 2 + 4

= 6

f = ma

20 = 6 * a

a = 3.3

I am Lyosha [343]

The steps in the heating of a metal seat in a park are:

Step 1: Heat travels from the sun to Earth

Step 2: Heat travels through atmosphere to the top of the seat

Step 3: Heat from the top of the seat travels through the seat to the lower parts of the seat.

-- Heat is transferred by radiation in Step 1 and Step 2. (B)

-- From the top of the seat to the bottom, heat is transferred by conduction.

There's no convection happening anywhere in the park-hot-seat scenario.

The spectra of most stars are dark-line spectra because ________.

pav-90 [236]

Because dark line spectra result from passing white light through ionized gasses and plasmas, which is what the atmosphere of stars are made of. These frequencies are scattered by the star's atmosphere as it leaves the surface (photosphere) of the star, and don't make it to earth.

A student standing on a knoll throws a snowball horizontally 4.5 meters above the level ground toward a smokestack 15 meters awa

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

2.4 m

Explanation:

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

$y_{o}$ = initial position of ball above the ground = 4.5 m

$t$ = time taken by the ball to hit the smokestack = 0.65 s

$v_{oy}$ = initial velocity of the ball along vertical direction

$a_{y}$ = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

$y$ = position of ball at the time of hitting the smokestack

Using the kinematics equation

$y = y_{o} + v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t^{2}$

inserting the above values

$y = 4.5 + (0) (0.65) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (0.65)^{2} \\y = 2.4 m$

Remember to include your data, equation, and work when solving this problem.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

F = 0.00156[N]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's proposed universal gravitation law.

$F=G*\frac{m_{1} *m_{2} }{r^{2} } \\$

Where:

F = gravitational force between the moon and Ellen; units [Newtos] or [N]

G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67 * 10^-11 [N^2*m^2/(kg^2)]

m1= Ellen's mass [kg]

m2= Moon's mass [kg]

r = distance from the moon to the earth [meters] or [m].

Data:

G = 6.67 * 10^-11 [N^2*m^2/(kg^2)]

m1 = 47 [kg]

m2 = 7.35 * 10^22 [kg]

r = 3.84 * 10^8 [m]

$F=6.67*10^{-11} * \frac{47*7.35*10^{22} }{(3.84*10^8)^{2} }\\ F= 0.00156 [N]$

This force is very small compare with the force exerted by the earth to Ellen's body. That is the reason that her body does not float away.

How is an image formed by a plane mirror?

Nesterboy [21]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Light bounces off of the mirror and then appears to come from behind the mirror.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Plane mirrors form images that are virtual, upright and the same size and shape as the object it is reflecting.
When rays of light from the object hits a plane mirror they bounces off the mirror,that is they undergo reflection, and appear to originate from behind the mirror, resulting to the formation of a virtual image.
The image formed appears to be behind the plane in which the mirror lies. A virtual image is an image that is formed at a location from which the rays of light appear to come from. The image can not be formed on a screen.
