Answer:
The mass of the child + skateboard is 50 kg
Explanation:
In this problem, we can apply Newton's second law:
F = ma
where
F is the net force on a system
m is the mass of the system
a is the acceleration of the system
In this problem, our system is the child + the skateboard. The net force on them is
F = 75 N
and their acceleration is
So we can re-arrange the equation above to find their combined mass:
A parallel circuit is sometimes called a current divider because current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit. In addition, the current through the branches is inversely proportional to the resistance of the branch. If the resistance in each branch is kept constant but the voltage is decreased, the current will decrease.

The compound magnesium phosphate has the chemical formula Mg3(PO4)2. In this compound, phosphorus and oxygen act together as one charged particle, which is connected to magnesium, the other charged particle. What does the 2 mean in the formula 5Mg3(PO4)2? A. There are two elements in magnesium phosphate. B. There are two molecules of magnesium phosphate. C. There are two magnesium ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate. D. There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.
Answer:
There are two phosphate ions in a molecule of magnesium phosphate.
Explanation:
The compound magnesium phosphate is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds always consists of two ions, a positive ion and a negative ion.
In this case, the positive ion is Mg^2+ while the negative ion is PO4^3-.
The subscript, 2 after the formula of the phosphate ion means that there are two phosphate ions in each formula unit of magnesium phosphate.
