Consider a block on frictionless ice. Starting from rest, the block travels a distance din
sweet [91]

Answer:

<em>The distance is now 4d</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = m.a

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{F}{m}

Once we know the acceleration, we can calculate the distance traveled by the block as follows:

\displaystyle d = vo.t+\frac{at^2}{2}

If the block starts from rest, vo=0:

\displaystyle d = \frac{at^2}{2}

Substituting the value of the acceleration:

\displaystyle d = \frac{\frac{F}{m}t^2}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle d = \frac{Ft^2}{2m}

When a force F'=4F is applied and assuming the mass is the same, the new acceleration is:

\displaystyle a'=\frac{4F}{m}

And the distance is now:

\displaystyle d' = \frac{4Ft^2}{2m}

Dividing d'/d:

\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=\frac{\frac{4Ft^2}{2m}}{\frac{Ft^2}{2m}}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=4

Thus:

d' = 4d

The distance is now 4d

A convex security mirror has a radius of curvature of 12.0 cm. What is the magnification of a pare 3.0 m from the mirror?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

magnification will be -0.025

Explanation:

We have given the radius of curvature = 12 cm

And object distance = 3 m

So focal length f=\frac{R}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6cm

Now for mirror we know that \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

So \frac{1}{0.06}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{v}

16.66-0.333=\frac{1}{v}

v = 0.750 m

Now magnification of the mirror is m=\frac{-v}{u}=\frac{-0.750}{3}=-0.025

Define the relationship between force acceleration and mass
goblinko [34]
Force is mass times acceleration. This means an object with a larger mass needs a stronger force to be moved along at the same acceleration as an object with a small mass
