True. Classifying by similarities is the basis for biological classification.
Answer: F = 102141N
Explanation: <em><u>Newton's 2nd Law</u></em> states that a force can change the motion of a body. The relation is given by
F = m.a
whose units are:
[F] = N
[m] = kg
[a] = m/s²
Jenny's car, at the moment of the break, had acceleration:


a = 78.57 m/s²
Then, Force is
F = 1300*78.57
F = 102141 N
<u>Jenny's car experienced a force of </u><u>magnitude 102141N.</u>
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.
Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)
The potential energy of a 30N ball on the ground will be zero. With respect to height, h. Potential energy will be calculated like this. P=mgh. So if its on the ground relatively speaking the h=0. Thus inputting into the above formula. P=0.
Answer:
(a) 89 m/s
(b) 11000 N
Explanation:
Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.
(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

(b) The tension,
, is given by

where
is the speed,
is the tension and
is the mass per unit length.
Hence,

To determine
, we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

where
is the mass and
is the volume.

If the length is denoted by
, then


The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3
The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is
