Answer:
a = 3.27 m/s²
T = 275 N
Explanation:
Given that:
Mass m₁ = 42.p0 kg
Mass m₂ = 21.0 kg
Consider both masses to be in a whole system, then:
The acceleration can be determined as:

Making acceleration the subject in the above formula;




a = 3.27 m/s²
in the string, the tension is calculated using the formula:



T = 274.68 N
T ≅ 275 N
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and velocity is the change in displacement over the change in time so the answer would be A.
Answer:
When the temperature decreases the particals start to slow down.
During the first phase of acceleration we have:
v o = 4 m/s; t = 8 s; v = 13 m/s, a = ?
v = v o + a * t
13 m/s = 4 m / s + a * 8 s
a * 8 s = 9 m/s
a = 9 m/s : 8 s
a = 1.125 m/s²
The final speed:
v = ?; v o = 13 m/s; a = 1.125 m/s² ; t = 16 s
v = v o + a * t
v = 13 m/s + 1.125 m/s² * 16 s
v = 13 m/s + 18 m/s = 31 m/s
