A student starts a food fight by throwing a 0.5 kg burrito at some girl he likes. He throws it kind of hard so he accelerates it

at 3 m/s^2 how much force did this take?

m = mass of burrito thrown by the student = 0.5 kg

a = acceleration of the burrito thrown by the student = 3 m/s²

F = force applied by the student on the burrito = ?

According to newton's second law , the net force on an object is the product of its mass and acceleration. it is given as

F = ma

inserting the values

F = (0.5) (3)

F = 1.5 N

hence the net force on the burrito comes out to be 1.5 N

Which is a characteristics of a physical change?
vazorg [7]
Physical Change characteristic is the chemical bonds in the substance are unchanged. Because a physical change is any change happens in an object but without involving a change in its chemical substance. Example, Solid to liquid change or also known as melting, liquid to gas change also known as evaporation, gas to solid change also known as deposition, liquid to solid or solidification, solid to gas or sublimation, and gas to liquid or condensation. The physical form of a substance is change into a new form but the chemical is unchanged.

In a science museum, a 140 kg brass pendulum bob swings at the end of a 16.8 m -long wire.
Mice21 [21]

The period of the pendulum is 8.2 s

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by the equation:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

T is the period

We notice that the period of a pendulum does not depend at all on its mass, but only on its length.

For the pendulum in this problem, we have

L = 16.8 m

and

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

Therefore the period of this pendulum is

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{16.8}{9.8}}=8.2 s

What is the main difference between velocity and speed?
Marina86 [1]
Speed is scalar, meaning it's only going to be like 74 mph, doesn't matter which direction. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has direction. You can go -74mph when talking about velocity, not speed.
