We can use Newton's second law to find out.  This says F=ma, where m is the mass we seek:
F=ma \\  \\ 12N=m(4 \frac{m}{s^2}) \\  \frac{12N}{4 \frac{m}{s^2}}  =3kg

So we see the mass is 3kg

Give at least one fact about subatomic particles
victus00 [196]

Answer:

- Particles smaller than atoms are called subatomic particles .

- There are three famous subatomic particles, proton, neutron and electron .

- The study of sub atomic particles are called particle physics

- These particles can be divided as Brayons and Leptons

- These particles are often held together by one of the four fundamental particles ( Weak force, strong force, electromagnetic force, gravitational force).

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A. The molecules that make up olive oil are longer than those that

make up alcohol, so they have more resistance to sliding past one

another.

Olive oils are unsaturated fats with many carbons whereas, alcohols are typically short with very few carbons.

Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H
kirill [66]

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²
