Newton's Second law of motion: 

                  Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                  Force = (15kg) x (8m/s²) = 120 kg-m/s² = 120 newtons

The equation for force is force is equal to mass times acceleration or F = ma where:

- Force or F is measured in Newtons or N (which is also kilogram-meter per second squared), 
- Mass or m is measured in kilograms or kg, and acceleration is measured in meters per second or m/s2. 

This leads to an answer in kilogram-meter per second squared or kg- m/s2<span>So if we multiply a body with a mass of 15 kilograms to a rate of 8 meters per second, we get 120 kilogram-meter per second squared. </span>

A constant amount of charge passes through a conductor. How is current affected if the same amount of charge passes in less time
baherus [9]

Answer:

B. The current increases.

Explanation:

As we know that rate of flow of charge through the conductor is known as electric current

So we have

i = \frac{q}{t}

here we know that charge Q flowing through the conductor is constant while the time in which it passes through it is decreased

so we can say that the ratio of charge and time will increase

so here we have

i = increased

So correct answer will be

B. The current increases.

Considering only the earth's rotation, determine how much later the asteroid would have had to arrive to put the explosion above
tangare [24]

Answer:

5.1 hours

Explanation:

The only fact we need to know about such a question is that when gazing down at the north pole, the earth spins longitudinally at 360 degrees / day in the clockwise direction.

The planet would have to spin an additional 77 ° to strike the asteroid at 25° E. If the earth rotates in 24 hours 360 degrees, then it must it rotates in 5.1 h at 77 degrees.

Tenemos un Cable de cobre de 1 km de longitud cuya sección es de 2 milímetros al cuadrado y queremos saber la resistencia que se
Nady [450]

Answer:

8.5 Ω

Explanation:

La resistencia de un material es directamente proporcional a su longitud e inversamente proporcional al área de la sección transversal.

La fórmula de la resistencia (R) viene dada por:

R = ρL/A

Donde ρ es la resistividad del material, L es la longitud del material y A es el área de la sección transversal del material.

Dado que:

L = 1 km = 1000 m, A = 2 mm² = 2 * 10⁻⁶ m², ρ (cobre) = 1.7 * 10⁻⁸ Ωm

Sustituyendo da:

R = 1,7 * 10⁻⁸ * 1000/2 * 10⁻⁶

R = 8.5 Ω

A simple circuit consists of a light bulb connected to the terminals of a battery. A voltmeter shows a potential difference of 1
larisa [96]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

38.14Ω

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let's solve this question using Ohm's law which states that the current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference or voltage (V) across it. Mathematically;

V =  I R       -------------------(i)

<em>Where</em>;

R is the constant of proportionality called resistance of the conductor and is measured in Ohms (Ω)

<em>From the question;</em>

V = 18.5V

I = 0.485A

<em>Substitute these  values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

18.5 = 0.485 x R

<em>Solve for R;</em>

R = 18.5 / 0.485

R = 38.14Ω

Therefore the resistance of the bulb is 38.14Ω
