A net force of 125 N accelerates a 25.0 kg mass. What is the resulting acceleration?
2 answers:
Answer:
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object can be calculated by using Newton's second law:
where
F is the net force applied on the object
m is the mass of the object
a is its acceleration
In this problem, we have F=125 N and m=25.0 kg, so we can rearrange the equation to calculate the acceleration:

<h2>Answer:</h2>
If you triple the charge, the electric potential is 3V.
<h2>Explanation:</h2>If you triple the charge, the electric potential is 3V. Put another way, the value of the electric potential at the same location is tripled if the strength of the charge is tripled.
<em>But why this is true?</em>
Well, the potential V due to a single point charge q is:
If the strength of the charge is tripled means that our new q1=3q, therefore:
So you can see that in fact if you triple the charge, the electric potential is 3V.
1) The work done by tension is 12.0 J
2) The final speed of the box is 1.57 m/s
Explanation:
The work done by a force on an object is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement
is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement
For the box in this problem, we have:
F = 6.2 N is the force applied (the tension in the string)
d = 193.0 cm = 1.93 m is the displacement
assuming that the string is horizontal
Substituting, we find the work done by the tension:
2)
In order to determine the final speed of the box, we need to determine its acceleration first.
Beside the tension, acting forward, the other force acting horizontally on the box is the force of friction, whose magnitude is
where
is the coefficient of friction
m = 2.8 kg is the mass of the box
is the acceleration of gravity
Substituting,
Therefore, the net force on the box is
And the acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law:
where
F = 1.8 N is the net force
m = 2.8 kg is the mass of the box
a is the acceleration
Solving for a,
Now we can finally find the final speed using the suvat equation:
where
v is the final speed
u = 0 is the initial speed
is the acceleration
s = 1.93 m is the displacement
Solving for v,
