Could you please explain to me Newton's second law of motion? Please I don't get it :/

Answer:

Newton's second law states that when a body of mass m is accelerated with force f

then F=ma

this means acceleration of an object depends on both force with which it is moving as well as its mass

A 1.5kg cart moves along a track at 0.20m/s until it hits a fixed bumper at the end of the track. Find the average force exerted
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Net force will be 4.875 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the cart m = 1.5 kg

Initial velocity of the cart  = 0.2 m/sec

And final velocity of the car = - 0.125 m/sec ( Negative direction is due to opposite direction )

Instant of time \Delta t=0.1sec

Change in momentum is given by

\Delta P=1.5\times (0.2-(-0.125))=1.5\times 0.325=0.4875kgm/sec

Now force is given by

F=\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.4875}{0.1}=4.875N

Net force will be 4.875 N

In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron moves in a circular path around a proton. The speed of the electron is appro
blondinia [14]
In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass. 
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were. 

Ok, Rameses:

Elementary charge . . . . .  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  coulomb
                                        negative on the electron
                                        plussitive on the proton

Electron rest-mass . . . . .  9.11 x 10⁻³¹  kg


a).  The force between two charges is

      F  =  (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²

          =  (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²

          =     ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²

          =          8.05 x 10⁻⁸  Newton .


b).  Centripetal acceleration  = 

                                               v² / r  .

                  A  =  (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)

                     =      7.7 x 10²²  m/s² .

That's an enormous acceleration ... about  7.85 x 10²¹  G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.

It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use  "  F = MA "
either.

I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether  F = M A .

I'm going to leave that step for you.   Good luck !

. During a collision with a wall, the velocity of a 0.200-kg ball changes from 20.0 m/s toward the wall to 12.0 m/s away from th
mixer [17]

Answer:

106.7 N

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the impulse theorem, which states that the product between the average force applied and the duration of the collision is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

F \Delta t = m (v-u)

where

F is the average force

\Delta t is the duration of the collision

m is the mass of the ball

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem:

m = 0.200 kg

u = 20.0 m/s

v = -12.0 m/s

\Delta t = 60.0 ms = 0.06 s

Solving for F,

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.200 kg) (-12.0 m/s-20.0 m/s)}{0.06 s}=-106.7 N

And since we are interested in the magnitude only,

F = 106.7 N

Two wheels with fixed hubs and radii 0.51 m and 1.9 m, each having a mass of 3 kg, start from rest. Forces 5 N and F2 are applie
Katarina [22]

Answer:

18.63 N

Explanation:

Assuming that the sum of torques are equal

Στ = Iα

First wheel

Στ = 5 * 0.51 = 3 * (0.51)² * α

On making α subject of formula, we have

α = 2.55 / 0.7803

α = 3.27

If we make the α of each one equal to each other so that

5 / (3 * 0.51) = F2 / (3 * 1.9)

solve for F2 by making F2 the subject of the formula, we have

F2 = (3 * 1.9 * 5) / (3 * 0.51)

F2 = 28.5 / 1.53

F2 = 18.63 N

Therefore, the force F2 has to 18.63 N in order to impart the same angular acceleration to each wheel.
