To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to the resulting Vector Force product of two components, that is,

|\vec{F}| = \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

If we take the Force of 50 N as the force in the X direction and the Force of 40 N in the Y direction we will have to:

|\vec{F}| = \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

|\vec{F}| = \sqrt{(50)^2+(40)^2}

|\vec{F}| = 64.03N

Finally, since Newton's second law, acceleration can be determined as

F = ma

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{ 64.03}{40}

a = 1.6m/s^2

Therefore the resultant magnitude of the acceleration of the object is 1.6m/s^2

A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year. The speed of light is 3.00 × 108 m/s. How many miles are there in o
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

(a) 5.88\times 10^{12}mi

Explanation:

We have given speed of light c=3\times 10^8m/sec

Given time = 1 year =365 days

We know that in 1 minute = 60 sec

1 hour = 60×60 = 3600 sec

In one day = 24 hour = 24×60×60=86400 sec

So in 365 days = 365×86400=3.1536\times 10^7sec

We know that distance = speed ×time=3.1536\times 10^7\times 3\times 10^8=9.46\times 10^{15}m

We have given that 1 mi = 1609 m

So 9.46\times 10^{15}m=\frac{9.46\times 10^{15}}{1609}=5.88\times 10^{12}miSo option (a) is correct

in a car moving at constant acceleration, you travel 230 mm between the instants at which the speedometer reads 40 km/hkm/h and
Ronch [10]

The acceleration of the car is 0.8049m/s^{2}.It takes 13.802s to travel the 230 m.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

In mechanics, acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time varies. Acceleration is a vector quantity (in that they have magnitude and direction). The direction of an object's acceleration is determined by the direction of the net force acting on it. Newton's Second Law states that the combined effect of two factors determines how much an item accelerates: 

(i) It follows that  the magnitude of the net balance of all external forces acting on the object is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resulting force, and

(ii) the mass of the thing, depending on the materials out of which it is constructed, is inversely proportional to the mass of the thing.

Calculations:

40 km/hr ----- 11.11m/s

80 km/hr ----- 22.22m/s

v^{2} -u^{2} =2as\\22.22^{2} - 11.11^{2} = 2 x a x 230\\ 370.296=460a\\ a= 0.8049m/s^{2} \\

Time taken

v-u=at

22.22-11.11= 0.8049 x t

t=13.802s

A 1000 kg elevator accelerates upward at 1.0 m/s2 for 10 m, starting from rest. a. How much work does gravity do on the elevator
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

a)= 98kJ

b)=108kJ

c) = 10kJ

Explanation:

a. The work that is done by gravity on the elevator is:

Work = force * distance  

= mass * gravity * distance

= 1000 * 9.81 * 10  

= 98,000 J

= 98kJ

b)The net force equation in the cable

T - mg = ma

T = m(g+a)

T = 1000(9.8 + 10)

T = 10800N

The work done by the cable is

W = T × d

= 10800N × 10

= 108000

=108kJ

c) PE at 10m = 1000 * 9.81 * 10 = 98,100 J  

Work done by cable = PE +KE  

108,100 J = KE + 98,100 J  

KE = 10,000 J

= 10kJ

=
