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.

Alisiya [41]

The force of frictions is opposed to relative motion.

The acceleration of the crate is approximately <u>2.937 m/s²</u>.

Reason:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the wood, m = 100 kg

The force which can move the wood, F = 588 N

Wood on wood static friction, \mu_s = 0.5

Wood on wood kinetic friction, \mu_k = 0.3

Solution;

The force of friction, F_f, acting when the crate is moving is given as

follows;

F_f = m × g × \mu_k

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore, we have;

F_f = 100 × 9.81 × 0.3 = 294.3

The force of friction, F_f = 294.3 N

The force with which the crate moves, F = 588 - 294.3 = 293.7

The force with which the crate moves, F = 293.7 N

Force = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

a = \dfrac{F}{m}

Therefore;

a = \dfrac{293.7 \ N}{100 \ kg} = 2.937

The acceleration of the crate, a ≈ <u>2.937 m/s²</u>.

3) connect two lamps to a power supply in series and current drawn from the power supply is is. connect the same two lamps in pa
notka56 [123]

The current drawn by the series circuit is(R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂  times the current drawn by the parallel circuit.

Let the resistance of the two lamps are R₁ and R₂.

Then the equivalent resistance in series combination is: R = R₁ + R₂.

And,  the equivalent resistance in parallel combination is:

r = R₁R₂/(R₁ + R₂).

So, if the supply voltage is V,

Then, current drown in series combination; i_s = V/R = V/(R₁ + R₂)

And, current drown in parallel combination; i_p = V/r = V(R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂

So ,\frac{i_s}{i_p} = [ V/(R₁ + R₂)] /[V(R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂]

=  (R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂

Hence, the  ratio of current drawn in series and current drown in parallel is  (R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂.  So, he current drawn by the series circuit is(R₁ + R₂)/R₁R₂  times the current drawn by the parallel circuit.

Martino travels from her house to her moms office building from there she walks to school after school she walks to the library
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

A) 0 miles

Explanation:

The displacement is the distance between the starting point and the end point of the route.

In this case, even if Matino takes a whole tour around the city, since<u> it ends in the same place where it started</u>, the difference between the starting and finishing point is zero, so its total displacement is zero.

Care must be taken to distinguish the terms of displacement and distance traveled, beacause they are not the same, since in this case the distance traveled would be 3.15miles, but the displacement is zero, because it ends at the point where it started.

Some pipes on a pipe organ are open at both ends, others are closed at one end. For pipes that play low-frequency notes, there i
Mila [183]

Answer:

For pipes that play low-frequency notes, the advantage of using a tube which is open at both ends is that it produces sound whose wavelength is just twice the length of the tube but a tube which is open at one end and closed at the other produces sound with a wavelength equal to four times the length of the tube.

Therefore the tube which is open at both ends more suitable for low frequency note.

I hope it helps, please give brainliest if it does.
