Answer:

20 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force applied on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$F=ma$

where

F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, we have:

m = 10 kg is the mass of the cart

$a=2 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

So the net force on the car is

$F=(10)(2)=20 N$

Since Lucia and Akbar are pushing into opposite directions, this means that this net force is the resultant of the two forces: and since the cart is accelerating towards Akbar, this means that Lucia is applying a force 20 N stronger than Akbar.

During a demonstration of the gravitational force on falling objects to her class, Sarah drops an 11 lb. bowling ball from the t

leonid [27]

The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.

After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).

Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.

Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.

ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.

Which element does not have the same number of electrons in its outermost shell as the other elements in its group?(1 point)

Setler79 [48]

Helium (He) does not have the same number of valence electrons as other elements in its group.

The periodic table is divided into groups with the last number of the group coinciding with the number of electrons that an element in the group has in its outermost or valence shell.

Helium is in group 18 which means that it should have the same number of valence electrons as :

Neon
Argon
Krypton
Xenon and,
Radon

Yet Helium only has 2 valence electrons. We can therefore conclusively say that Helium does not have the same number of valence electrons as other elements in its group.
