A load of bricks with mass m1 = 14.0 kg hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionless pulley. A counterwei

ght of mass m2= 28.4 kg is suspended from the other end of the rope, as shown in the figure. The system is released from rest. Use g = 9.80 m/s2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Mass m1 and m2 are connected together and the rope is passing over the pulley

here we can see that the two masses are connected so the acceleration will be same but opposite in direction

So here we can use the force equations to solve for the acceleration of two blocks

now for block of mass m1

T - m_1g = m_1a

for block of mass m2

m_2g - T = m_2a

Now add above two equations to find its acceleration

T - m_1g + m_2g - T = m_1a + m_2a

(m_2 - m_1)*g = (m_1 + m_2)*a

a = \frac{(m_2 - m_1)*g}{(m_1 + m_2)}

now we will plug in all the values

a = \frac{(28.4 - 14)*9.8}{28.4 + 14)}

a= 3.33 m/s^2

So the acceleration of two blocks will be 3.33 m/s^2

DaniilM [7]
-- It takes the brick 8.9 seconds to reach the ground. 

-- At the instant of the "splat", it's falling at 89 m/s.

-- The mass doesn't matter. If not for air resistance, every object
    would fall at the same rate.  The answer is the same for a feather,
    a rubber chicken, a brick, or a school bus.

1. Who first published the classification of the elements that is the basis of our periodic table today?
Gre4nikov [31]
That particular group of elements is reffered to as the "Noble Gasses"--a title that comes from the fact that these gases are very "secure" and don't mix well with other elements.

First off, you need to know the weight of the projectile, lift and drag coefficients something like a high Reynolds number is preferred, then use the gravitational constant of 9.8 meters per second squared those would be a good start to get closer to your goal

How do scientists know the continents were once closer than they are today? Explain your answer in 2-3 complete sentences.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Continental drift describes one of the earliest ways geologists thought continents moved over time. Today, the theory of continental drift has been replaced by the science of plate tectonics. 

 

The theory of continental drift is most associated with the scientist Alfred Wegener. In the early 20th century, Wegener published a paper explaining his theory that the continental landmasses were “drifting” across the Earth, sometimes plowing through oceans and into each other. He called this movement continental drift.
