To solve this problem we will proceed to use Newton's second law for which the mass (m) multiplied by the acceleration (a) is defined as the Force (F) applied on a body, mathematically that is,

F = ma

According to the statement for the first object, the acceleration is,

a = \frac{F}{m} \rightarrow 1^{st} Object

For the second object the acceleration is,

8a = \frac{3F}{m_2} \rightarrow 2^{nd} Object

Solving for the mass of the second object,

m_2 = \frac{3F}{8a}

m_2 = \frac{3F}{8(F/m)}

m_2 = \frac{3}{8}m

Therefore the correct answer is D.

Answer:

Impulse = 322.5[kg*m/s], the answer is D

Explanation:

This method  it is based on the principle of momentum and the amount of movement; and  used to solve problems involving strength, mass, speed and time.

If units of the SI are used, the magnitude of the impulse of a force is expressed in N * s. however, when remembering the definition of the newton.

N*S=(kg*m/s^{2} )*s = kg*m/s

Now replacing the values on the following equation that express the definition of impulse

Impulse = Force * Time\\\\Impulse = 215 * 1.5 = 322.5 [kg*m/s]

If you increase the voltage what will the current do
o-na [289]

Answer:

The power will remain the same for a particular load as we are not changing the load. so if we increase the voltage, the current will decrease to make the net power consumed by the load same as before. If we increase the current, the voltage will decrease for making the power same. The power will only change when we changes the load.
