If you increase the force on an item without changing the mass you increase acceleration? true or false?

1 answer:

5 0

(F)(M)=A
Force times Mass equals Acceleration.
The answer is TRUE.
If the mass increases the number on the left side of the equation increases, thus increasing the right side as well.

A 1.00 kg block of ice, at -25.0°C, is warmed by 35 kJ of energy. What is the final temperature of the ice?

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

-8.4°C

Explanation:

From the principle of heat capacity.

The heat sustain by an object is given as;

H = m× c× (T2-T1)

Where H is heat transferred

m is mass of substance

T2-T1 is the temperature change from starting to final temperature T2.

c- is the specific heat capacity of ice .

Note : specific heat capacity is an intrinsic capacity of a substance which is the energy substained on a unit mass of a substance on a unit temperature change.

Hence ; 35= 1× c× ( T2-(-25))

35= c× ( T2+25)

35 =2.108×( T2+25)

( T2+25)= 35/2.108= 16.60°{ approximated to 2 decimal place}

T2= 16.60-25= -8.40°C

C, specific heat capacity of ice is =2.108 kJ/kgK{you can google that}

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.20 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.430 T. Calcu

galina1969 [7]

Question:

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.20 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.430 T. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire assuming the following angles between the magnetic field and the current.

(a)60 (b)90 (c)120

Answer:

(a)5.42 N (b)6.26 N (c)5.42 N

Explanation:

From the question

Length of wire (L) = 2.80 m

Current in wire (I) = 5.20 A

Magnetic field (B) = 0.430 T

Angle are different in each part.

The magnetic force is given by

$F=I \times B \times L \times sin(\theta)$

So from data

$F = 5.20 A \times 0.430 T \times 2.80 sin(\theta)\\\\F=6.2608 sin(\theta) N$

Now sub parts

(a)

$\theta=60^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(60^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N$

(b)

$\theta=90^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(90^{o}) N\\\\Force = 6.26 N$

(c)

$\theta=120^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(120^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N$

In a certain city, electricity costs $0.20 per kw·h. what is the annual cost for electricity to power a lamp-post for 8.00 hours

UNO [17]

Part a)

per day electricity power consumed when 100 W bulb is used for 8 hours

$P = 8 * 100 = 800 Wh$

for one year consumption

$E = 365 * 800 = 292 kWH$

now the cost will be given

$cost = 0.20 * 292 = $ 58.4$

now when other energy efficient light is used

$P = 8 * 25 = 200 Wh$

for one year consumption

$E = 365 * 200 = 73 kWH$

now the cost will be given

$cost = 0.20 * 73 = $ 14.6$

A 120 kg tackler moving at 3.0 m/s meets head-on (and tackles) a 91 kg halfback moving at 7.5 m/s. What will be their mutual vel

Vesna [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the tackler, m₁ = 120 kg

Velocity of tackler, u₁ = 3 m/s

Mass, m₂ = 91 kg

Velocity, u₂ = -7.5 m/s

We need to find the mutual velocity immediately the collision. It is the case of inelastic collision such that,

$v=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$

$v=\dfrac{120\ kg\times 3\ m/s+91\ kg\times (-7.5\ m/s)}{120\ kg+91\ kg}$

v = -1.5 m/s

Hence, their mutual velocity after the collision is 1.5 m/s and it is moving in the same direction as the halfback was moving initially. Hence, this is the required solution.
