A force gives a 5.0 kg object an acceleration of 2.0 m/s 2. The same force would give a 20 kg object an acceleration of _____. 0

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

m = 5 kg

a = 2 m/s²

to find the force that accelerates the 4 kg object @ 2 m/s²

F = ma = 5 kg x 2 m/s² = 10 N

To find what acceleration 10 N would give a 20 kg object

a = F/m = 10 N/20 kg = 0.5 m/s

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

$E=5.7\times 10^{-3}\ V/m$

Explanation:

Given that

$m_p=5.18\times 10^{-26}\ kg$

re= 46 cm

Vp= 180 m/s

We know that

$E=\dfrac{\Delta V}{r}$

$\Delta V=\dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{m_pv_p^2}{e}$

So

$E=\dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{m_pv_p^2}{e.r_e}$

Now by putting the all given values in the questions

$E=\dfrac{1}{4}\times \dfrac{5.18\times 10^{-26}\times 180^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.46}$

$E=5.7\times 10^{-3}\ V/m$

So the average electric field is $E=5.7\times 10^{-3}\ V/m$ .

If you pull horizontally on a desk with a force of 150 N and the desk doesn't move, the friction force must be 150 N. Now if you

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The friction force is 250 N

Explanation:

The desk is moving at constant velocity. This means that its acceleration is zero: a = 0. Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on the desk is equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

$\sum F=ma$

In this case, we know that the acceleration is zero: a = 0, so also the resultant of the forces must be zero:

$\sum F = 0$ (1)

We are only interested in the forces acting along the horizontal direction, since it is the direction of motion. There are two forces acting in this direction:

- the pull, forward, F = 250 N

- the friction force, backward, $F_f$

Given (1), we have

$F-F_f = 0$

So the force of friction must be equal to the pull:

$F=F_f = 250 N$
