Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

Marizza181 [45]
The unit for measuring the rate at which light is radiated from a source is B, Lumen. Lumenous flux is the time rate of the flow of light, or the visible energy produced from a certain light source.  It is the quantitative measure of brilliance of a light source. The unit we use for this is lumen.

How do you reconcile the law of falling bodies (that all objects fall to earth at the same acceleration despite their weight) wi
ASHA 777 [7]

From the gravity acceleration theorem due to a celestial body or planet, we have that the Force is given as

F = \frac {GMm} {r ^ 2}

Where,

F = Strength

G = Universal acceleration constant

M = Mass of the planet

m = body mass

r = Distance between centers of gravity

The acceleration by gravity would be given under the relationship

g = \frac {F} {m}

g = \frac {GM} {r ^ 2}

Here the acceleration is independent of the mass of the body m. This is because the force itself depended on the mass of the object.

On the other hand, the acceleration of Newton's second law states that

a = \frac {F} {m}

Where the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass but the Force does not depend explicitly on the mass of the object (Like the other case) and therefore the term of the mass must not necessarily be canceled but instead, considered.

A car moved 35 km to the South and Then 10 km to the North. What is its Displacement?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

It's displacement would be 25 km.

Explanation:

That is because you would subtract 10 from 35 to get the distance away from the starting point.
