m = mass held by mr. Z above his head = 200 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

F = force applied by mr. Z to hold the mass

Using equilibrium of force , force equation is given as

F = mg

F = (200) (9.8)

F = 1960 N

Since the mass is not moved,

d = displacement of the mass = 0 m

we know that , work done is given as

W = F d

inserting the values

W = (1960) (0)

W = 0 J

A net force of 15 N is applied to a cart with a mass of 2.1 kg. a. What is the acceleration of the cart? b. How long will it tak

Gennadij [26K]

The first question's answer is :
If, F=ma
Then, 15N= 2.1kg (a)
15/2.1=a
7.14=a
Therefore, acceleration = 7.14m/s^2

sorry I am not sure about the second question :-(

Question 2 (1 point)

mixer [17]

Answer:

The initial vertical velocity is zero, u = 0 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

height of the table, h = 0.55 m

horizontal distance traveled by the tennis, x = 0.12 m

Apply the following kinematic equation;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

where;

u is the initial vertical velocity = 0, since the tennis ball rolled off the edge of a table.

h = ¹/₂gt²

The time to fall from the vertical height is given by;

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2(0.55)}{9.8} }\\\\t = 0.335 \ s$

The initial horizontal velocity of the tennis is given by;

x = vₓt

vₓ = x / t

vₓ = (0.12) / (0.335)

vₓ = 0.358 m/s

Therefore, the initial vertical velocity is zero, u = 0 m/s and initial horizontal velocity, vₓ is 0.358 m/s

Why does it takes a long time to heat a room with a high ceiling?

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

High ceilings make a room feel large and open, but they can be difficult to cool and heat. Because hot air rises, the challenge becomes trying to keep the hot air where you want it and preventing if from being wasted where you don't.

A baseball has a mass of 0.145 kilograms, and a bowling ball has a mass of 6.8 kilograms. What is the gravitational force betwee

Olegator [25]

Quite low

Gravitation force = $\frac{6.67* 10^{-11}*0.145*6.8 }{ 0.5^{2} }$ = 26.3 * $10^{-11}$ = 2.63 * $10^{-10}$ N

Does this curved graph show a function explain how you know

pochemuha

Answer:

No; the graph fails the vertical line test.

The vertical line test is a tool used to determine if we have a function. If we can draw a single straight vertical line through more than one point on the red curve, then the graph is said to have failed the vertical line test. Consequently, this leads to the relation not being a function.

For this circle graph, we can draw a vertical line through more than one point, which is why we don't have a function here.

Put another way, there are inputs (x) that produce more than one output (y), so that's why we don't have a function.
