An object with a mass of 375g is moving with a constant velocity. It has a force of -20 N applied to it. Determine the accelerat

ion of the object. What is happening to the object?

olga55 [171]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Convert the mass to kg:

375g = 375/1000kg = 0.375kg

F = ma

-20 = 0.375a

a = -20/0.375

a = -53

The object is accelerating at 53m/s/s backwards assuming that the forward motion is positive.

Set the initial bead height to 3.00 m. Click Play. Notice that the ball makes an entire loop. What is the minimum height require
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

h> 2R

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the conservation of energy relations

starting point. Before releasing the ball

       Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. In the highest part of the loop

       Em_f = K + U = ½ m v² + ½ I w² + m g (2R)

where R is the radius of the curl, we are considering the ball as a point body.

      I = m R²

      v = w R

we substitute

       Em_f = ½ m v² + ½ m R² (v/R) ² + 2 m g R

       em_f = m v² + 2 m g R

Energy is conserved

       Emo = Em_f

       mgh = m v² + 2m g R

       h = v² / g + 2R

 

The lowest velocity that the ball can have at the top of the loop is v> 0

      h> 2R

Calculate the wavelength λ1 for gamma rays of frequency f1 = 7.20×1021 hz .
bagirrra123 [75]
The relationship between wavelength \lambda, frequency f and speed of light c for an electromagnetic wave is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
Using the data of the problem, we find
\lambda= \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s }{7.20 \cdot 10^{21} Hz}=4.17 \cdot 10^{-14} m

V125BC [204]

Answer:

F = 1.24*10^4 N

Explanation:

Given

Depth of the ship, h = 25 m

Density of water, ρ = 1.03*10^3 kg/m³

Diameter of the hatch, d = 0.25 m

Pressure of air, P(air) = 1 atm

Pressure of water =

P(w) = ρgh

P(w) = 1.03*10^3 * 9.8 * 25

P(w) = 2.52*10^5 N/m²

P(net) = P(w) + P(air) - P(air)

P(net) = P(w)

P(net) = 2.52*10^5 N/m²

Remember,

Pressure = Force / Area, so

Force = Area * Pressure

Area = πr² = πd²/4

Area = 3.142 * 0.25²/4

Area = 3.142 * 0.015625

Area = 0.0491 m²

Force = 0.0491 * 2.52*10^5

F = 12373 N

F = 1.24*10^4 N

A charged particle moves in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field.Which of the following would increase the period of the
Bond [772]

Answer:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

Explanation:

For a charged particle moving in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the centripetal force is provided by the magnetic force, so we can write:

qvB = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

m is the mass

r is the radius of the orbit

The period of the motion is

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

Re-arranging for r

r=\frac{Tv}{2\pi}

And substituting into the previous equation

qvB = m \frac{Tv^3}{2\pi}

Solving for T,

T=\frac{2\pi q B}{m v^2}

So we see that the period is:

- proportional to the charge and the magnetic field

- inversely proportional to the mass and the square of the speed

So the following will increase the period of the particle's motion:

Increasing its charge

Increasing the field strength

In the process of peppering the question with those forty (40 !) un-necessary quotation marks, you neglected to actually show us the illustration.  So we have no information to describe the adjacent positions, and we're not able to come up with any answer to the question.
